Controlling external video devices from the BR-1600CD (V-LINK)
Recording and playing V-LINK
control operations
By recording and playing video control operations carried
out using the track buttons and VALUE knobs, you can
control video in sync with the BR-1600CD’s playback.

With V-LINK turned on, carry out the following procedure.
1.
Press V-LINK [REC].
V-LINK [REC] will start to flash, indicating that the BR-
1600CD is now ready for V-LINK recording.
“PLAYBACK: ON” is displayed in the upper right of the
screen, indicating that the V-LINK control function is
enabled for recording and playback.
When you press V-LINK [REC], if any control operations
have been previously recorded, they will be deleted.

Press [ZERO] to jump to the start of the song and then
press [PLAY].
