After you connect your devices to the TV, you will need to connect the G-LINK

cable (either of the dual-wand IR blaster cables

included with your TV) from your VCR and Cable box (if applicable) to the G-LINK

terminal on the TV.

Note: TV Guide On Screen™ program data is available through the ANT-1 and ANT-2 antenna inputs and also through the VIDEO 1 inputs if you
have a cable box connected to VIDEO 1. TV Guide On Screen™ program data is not available through any other inputs on this TV. See the
connection information on pages 15–24.

The G-LINK

connection is necessary to enable the following features of your TV Guide On Screen

system:

• If you have a Cable box, you need to connect the G-LINK

cable from the Cable box to the G-LINK

terminal to receive

the TV Guide On Screen

program listings for your Cable service.

• If you have a VCR, you need to connect the G-LINK

cable from the VCR to the G-LINK

terminal to use the TV Guide

On Screen

recording features.

If you cannot locate the device’s infrared sensor:

1. Turn OFF the device.

2. Starting at the lower left corner of the device, place the end of the

device’s remote control (with the infrared emitter) so it touches the
front of the device and press POWER. (Do not use the TV’s remote
control for this step.)

3. If the device turns on, the point at which the remote control touched

the device is the location of the sensor.

4. If the device does not turn on, move the remote control slightly to the

right and press POWER again.

5. Repeat step 4 until you locate the device’s infrared sensor.

To connect to the G-LINK

terminal:

1. Locate the infrared sensor on the front of your VCR or

Cable box. The sensor is marked on some devices.*

2. Align one of the G-LINK

(IR blaster) cable’s wands about

1 inch away from the infrared sensor on the front of the
VCR and attach it using double-sided mounting tape.
If you have a Cable box, attach the other wand in a similar
manner. (See illustration at right.)

Note: If you do not have a Cable box, coil the second wand
with a rubber band and leave it behind the TV.

3. Plug the G-LINK

(IR blaster) cable’s plug into the TV’s

G-LINK

terminal.
