Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Connecting two VCRs

This connection allows you to record (dub/edit) from one VCR (“VCR1” in the illustration below) to a second VCR (“VCR2”) while watching a videotape. You also can record from one TV channel with VCR1 while watching another TV channel.

You will need:

•coaxial cables

•standard A/V cables

Note:

•If you have VCRs with S-video, use S-video cables instead of standard video cables for better picture performance.

•Do not connect the same VCR to the output and input jacks on the TV at the same time. To dub or edit, VCR 2 must select LINE IN, and the TV must select Video 1.
