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.
Com pu 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.
Com pu 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. The components can be
connected in any order.
16
TD-EX90
Com pu Link-3 features
The Compu Link-3 system of the EX series components makes the following operations possible.
Shortcut playback
Simply selecting an input source of the amplifier/tuner starts playback of the selected source
component (CD player, MD recorder or cassette deck).
Also, even if you do not touch the amplifier/tuner, starting playback of a source component sets
the amplifier’s input source automatically to the played component.
* Refer to the instruction manual of the amplifier/tuner.
System control from a single rem ote control unit
The remote control unit provided with the amplifier/tuner can also be used to control the CD
player or cassette deck.
Synchronized recording
Recording can be started automatically in synchronism with the start of playback of a source
component.
(See pages 14 and 15.)
Tim er operation
The timer function built into the amplifier/tuner can be used to start recording or playback of other
components at the reserved time of the day or switch the power to the STANDBY mode in the
reserved time period.
* Refer to the instruction manual of the amplifier/tuner.

Additional Inform ation
Types of cassette tape
This cassette deck incorporates an auto tape select function. The auto tape select function uses the
tape-type detection holes to distinguishes which type of tape was inserted, and sets the bias and
equalizer to the optimum settings for that tape automatically.
The following types of tapes may be used with this cassette deck.
Norm al tape
TYPE I
BIAS:NORMAL
EQ:120µs
Norm al (No detection slots)
Tab
(to prevent accidental erasure)
High Position (CrO2) tape
TYPE II

Metallic tape
TYPE IV
BIAS:METAL

Caution
•
Tapes longer than 90 minutes, such as C-120 or C-150 tapes, are extremely thin and stretch easily.
Please note that frequent rewinding and fast forwarding of small sections of tape may cause
these tapes to jam in the pinch rollers and capstans.
Note: The use of these types of tapes is not recommended to avoid troubles.
Certain early period metal and high position (CrO2) tapes may not have tape-type detection slots.
The cassette deck cannot obtain the correct characteristics for these tapes.
Ferrochromite (FeCr) TYPE III tapes cannot be used with this cassette deck.

Handling cassette tapes
Maintenance
Cleaning the tape heads
Cautions regarding handling
Since the tape is always touching the heads
as it travels through the tape transport, in
time magnetic particles and dust build up,
making the heads dirty. When the heads
become extremely dirty, the sound quality
becomes poor, the output level is reduced,
recording doesn’t work, and previously
recorded sounds cannot be erased (etc.).
In order to prevent important recordings
from coming out as failures, we recommend
cleaning the heads, pinch rollers and
Do not touch the surface of the tape or pull
the tape out of the cassette.
Tape spooled loosely around the hubs is likely
to jam in the pinch rollers and capstans.
Before loading the tape into the cassette
holder, take up the slack in the tape as shown
below.
capstans on a regular basis (after about
every 10 hours of use), before the
symptoms described above begin to appear.
Cleaning m ethod
Tape storage
Clean the heads, capstans and pinch rollers
using a wet-type head cleaning tape,
available from an audio store. For more
details, refer to the Instructions of the Head
Cleaning Tape.
Place tapes in their cases for storage.
Avoid storing tapes on top of TVs or
speakers, in sunlight or places of high
temperature, or in humid or dusty areas.
To prevent accidental erasure
Dem agnetizing the tape heads
Cassette tapes have tabs to prevent
accidental erasure.
After the cassette deck has been used for
long period of time, the metal parts which
contact the tape may become magnetically
charged. When this occurs, tape hiss
increases, and the high pitched sounds on
recorded tapes will be erased. The same
type of malfunction could also be caused by
bringing a charged metal object (such as a
screwdriver) near the tape heads.
We recommend demagnetizing the tape
heads regularly (after about every 20 to 30
hours of use) with a commercially available
tape head demagnetizer.
If you remove the tabs after making a
recording, the cassette deck cannot be set to
record when that tape is loaded. Remove the
tabs so that valuable recordings will not be
accidentally erased.
Recording (erasure) is not possible when the
tabs are removed.
Tab for side A
Tab for side B
You may also use cassette type
demagnetizers with this cassette deck.
When doing so, be sure to turn the volume
of the amplifier all the way down, or you may
harm the amplifier or speakers.
For details, read the instructions that come
with the tape head demagnetizer.
To make another recording on a tape whose
tabs have been removed, cover the tab holes
with adhesive tape.

Be careful not to cover the tape-type
detection slots.
