COMPU LINK
Linked Operation of the Other Optional Components (Compu Link)
The EX series components can be controlled under linked operation provided by the JVC’s Compu
Link remote control system.
What is Compu Link
The world of single components, in which you purchase a cassette deck, CD player, amplifier and
other components separately and enjoy your own composition, is an effective means for pursuit of
high-quality reproduction. However, in terms of operability, the need of controlling components
independently makes their control complicated and their linked operation impossible. Then, isn’t it
possible to combine single components and control them as simply as an integrated audio system?
The Compu Link remote control system is the response to such a requirement.
The components in the JVC EX series are equipped with jacks named COMPU LINK-3 (COMPU LINK
jacks). By connecting the COMPU LINK jacks of these components, they can be controlled simply
with a systematized, linked operation.
Compu Link connections
Using Compu Link cables, connect the COMPU LINK jacks of EX series components. Connect so that
the Compu Link cables can bridge all of the EX series components you have as shown below. The
components can be connected in any order.
Compu Link-3 features
The Compu Link-3 system of the EX series components makes the following operations possible.
