CAMCORDER CONNECTIONS

Your VCR has jacks on its front panel that let you easily connect a camcorder or other video source. You can also connect a camcorder to the AUDIO IN 1/VIDEO IN 1 (Model 114) or R-AUDIO-L IN 1/VIDEO IN 1 (Model 63) jacks on the back of the VCR.

The Model 63 needs a stereo audio/video cable for this connection. The Model 114 needs an au- dio/video cable for this connection. Your audio/video cable (not supplied) must have plugs that fit the VCR’s jacks and the camcorder’s jacks for this connection.
