DConnect the provided 21-pin SCART cable between the AV1 (L-1) IN/OUT connector on the rear panel of

the recorder and the TV’s 21-pin SCART connector.

● The AV1 (L-1) IN/OUT connector accepts and delivers either a

composite signal (regular video signal) or a Y/C signal (a signal

in which the luminance and chrominance signals are

separated). If your TV’s 21-pin AV input connector (SCART) is

compatible with the Y/C signal, set “L-1 OUTPUT” to

“S-VIDEO” after the connection and the initial settings are

completed ( pg. 64). You can obtain high-quality S-VHS

pictures. (For connection, be sure to use a 21-pin SCART cable

that is compatible with the Y/C signal.)

● Set your TV to the VIDEO (or AV), Y/C, or RGB mode

according to the type of your TV’s SCART connector.
