LinkConverter features

If you have a Bang & Olufsen TV-set and e.g. a Panasonic DVD player, you are not able to use the powerful Bang & Olufsen remote control with your player. But with a KeyMaster LinkConverter installed in your player, you are able to use your B&O remote control with your player. The LinkConverter has been optimised for the BEO4 remote control.

The LinkConverter has the following features.

The LinkConverter has to be installed in your player in order to achieve optimal performance.

Eventhough you have got a LinkConverter installed in your player, you are still able to use your original remote control without any lost functionality. The format selection (16:9/4:3) in the scart-connector will still be available.

The operation of the LinkConverter has been split into two groups. One is the common day operations such as play, next and stop; these are done through the B&O remote control using a single button. The other is the seldom used operations; these require several buttons (e.g. "repeat a-b" require "GO-5").

If your DVD player is equipped with a KeyMaster, the LinkConverter will use this to change the region. Just choose the desired region using your remote, and the LinkConverter will do what is necessary to switch the region (e.g. turn the player off and on).

The LinkConverter normally requires that the player, or VCR, is equipped with a scart-connector, and it is connected to AV1 or AV2 (depending on the LinkConverter) on the TV-set.

The LinkConverter does not support DVD players which include VCRs, tuners and amplifiers.
