Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Connecting two VCRs

You will need:

￿two coaxial cables

￿two sets of standard A/V cables

¥For better picture performance, if VCR 1 has S-video, use an S-video cable (plus the audio cables) instead of the standard video cable. However, do not connect both types of video cable to VIDEO 1 (or VIDEO 2) at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

¥If VCR 1 has mono audio, connect L/MONO on the TV (VIDEO 1) to the audio out jack on VCR 1 using the white audio cable only.

¥Do not connect the same VCR to the output and input jacks on the TV at the same time.

￿To view the antenna or Cable signal:

Turn OFF the VCR. Select the ANT-1 video input source.*

¥If you have both an off-air antenna and Cable TV, connect the antenna to ANT-2 and the Cable TV to ANT-1 (ANT-1 and VIDEO 1 are the only sources for the TV Guide On Screen program guide).

￿To view VCR 1:

Select the VIDEO 1 video input source.*

￿To dub or edit from VCR 1 to VCR 2: VCR 2 must select “line IN.”

Select the VIDEO 1 video input source.*

Connect the G-LINK cable to the G-LINK jack (see page 25)
