tvLINK-Plus lets you control Sky Digibox...

...and/or other equipment such as Freeview receiver, VCR, DVD etc.

In fact there's no real limit because you can position the 2 transmitting "eyes" some distance in front of ALL your equipment and control everything. Or you can place them at the rear of a cabinet and paint the inside of the doors white so they reflect the signal back to the front panels of your equipment.

The Sky Digibox should always be positioned, so it can't "see" the infrared signal (or reflections) from either of the transmitting "eyes", to reduce the risk of interference which will cause erratic Digibox operation.

(This applies only if the tvLINK plus is powered by the Digibox RF Outlet 2. If it is connected to a separate power supply and NOT to the Digibox then you can safely point a transmitter "eye" at the Digibox front panel.)

Further equipment can be "daisy chained" into the RF output between the VCR and the Sky Digibox unit.

If equipment without RF loop-through sockets is used (e.g. most DVD players) then an RF modulator must be used to convert the DVD Scart signal to RF.

A T140 (or similar) amplified splitter is used and power derived from the additional tvLINK plus Power Supply unit is sufficient to power the T140, tvLINK plus and four tvLINK "eyes".

Further equipment can be "daisy chained" into the cable going to the tvLINK plus unit.

If equipment without RF loop-through sockets is used (e.g. most DVD players) then an RF modulator must be used to convert the DVD Scart signal to RF.

The tvLINK plus can also be used in conjunction with the LOFT BOX.
