Panasonic Auto

Panasonic Auto determines the best aspect ratio to use to display the picture you are viewing. It does this using a four step process to determine if the picture being viewed is a widescreen picture.

If Panasonic Auto detects a widescreen signal it switches into the appropriate 16:9 or 14:9 widescreen mode. If Panasonic Auto does not detect a widescreensignalthen thepicture isdisplayed inJust or 4:3 mode.

The text shown on the screen indicates how Panasonic Auto determined which ratio to use:

'WIDE' appears in the top left of the screen if a widescreen identification signal (WSS) is found or a signalfound through a Scart socket. Panasonic Auto switches to the appropriate 16:9 or 14:9 widescreen ratio

'PanasonicAuto' appears in the top left of the screen if black stripes above and below the picture are detected. PanasonicAuto chooses the best ratio and expands the picture to fill the screen. This process can take several minutes, depending how dark the picture is.

'Panasonic Auto' appears in the top left of the screen andred andgreenkeysatthebottomifnoindicationof a widescreen signal is found, the picture is displayed in Just or 4:3 mode. If the picture has a standard 4:3 aspectratiothen youmayprefer to view itat itsoriginal size, the red and green keys that appear allow you to choose between viewing at standard 4:3 size or expanded in Just mode.

Equally, you may prefer to select one of the other modes available to view the picture.

Notes:

- If, in Panasonic Auto mode, you experience problems with the screen display size when playing back widescreen format recordings from your VCR then it is possible that the tracking control of your VCR requires adjustment (your VCR instruction book will contain adjustment details).

- Thewidescreenaspectratios of differentfilms and programmes can vary. If these are wider than a standard 16:9 aspect picture then a black band may be visible at the top and bottom of the screen.

Q-Link allows the television to communicate with a compatible VCR

For Q-Link communication to work, the TV must be connected to a VCR with the "Q-Link", "NEXTVIEWLINK", "DATALOGIC", "Easy Link", "Megalogic" or "SMARTLINK" logo using a 'fully wired' Scart cable between the AV2 socket of the television and the appropriate socket on your VCR.

For connection to the appropriate Scart socket on the VCR, refer to the VCR operating instruction book.

When using anNEXTVIEWLINK" WORthemain features possible are the following :

• Preset Download - Downloading of tuning information from the TV to the VCR.
• Direct TV Record - For immediate recording of the current program (What You See Is What You Record).

• "Easy Link" (a trademark of Philips Corporation).
• “Megalogic” (a trademark of Grundig Corporation).
• "SMARTLINK" (a trademark of Sony Corporation).

These VCR's may support some or all of the above functions.

Refer to the VCR operating instruction book.

Preset Download

This allows the programme order from the TV to be downloaded to the VCR, this helps to ensure that correct recordings are made, there are several ways to perform this operation :

1. During installation as explained in the 'Quick Start Guide' beginning on page 6.
2. When Auto setup is started from within the Tuning menu, see page 24.
3. When TV to VCR manual download is started from within 'Programme edit', see page 23.
4. Preset download started from the VCR, refer to the VCR operating instruction book.

Important Note:

Not all VCRs support this type of data communication system. Some may support certain features, but not others. Refer to the VCR operating instruction book.

If Q-Link is inoperative, first confirm that your Scart cable is a full function type. Ask your dealer for further details.

VCR AND SATELLITE RECEIVER INSTALLATION

Your new TV is supplied with programme position '0' set to receive an RF signal from your VCR, although a Scart connection is preferable if the VCR is so equipped.

However, if for some reason your VCR is tuned to a different RF channel then you will not receive any picture or sound from your VCR on programme position '0' of the TV. It will be necessary to either adjust the RF channel of your VCR (some VCR's allow adjustment of their RF channel via their remote control unit) or to adjust the tuning of the TV's programme position '0' or both until it receives the RF output channel of your VCR.

It is intended that this advice is used in conjunction with the instruction books for your additional equipment.
