Connecting to a VCR or other similar device

This connection enables you to record from video tape to a DVD±R/±RW and allows the VCR to be used for playback if the recorder is turned off.

IMPORTANT!

Your new recorder can replace the VCR for all your recording needs. Just unplug all the connections to your VCR.

A Connect the existing Aerial/Satellite/ Cable TV signal (or from the Cable Box/ Satellite Receiver, labelled as RF OUT or TO TV) to the ANTENNA-IN socket on the recorder.

B Use the supplied RF coaxial cable to connect the TV-OUT socket on the recorder to the aerial input socket (or labelled as VHF/UHF RF IN) on your TV.

C Use the SCART cable to connect the EXT1 TO TV-I/Osocket on the recorder to the corresponding SCART input socket on the TV.

D Use another SCART cable to connect the EXT2 AUX-I/Osocket on the recorder to the SCART output socket (or labelled as TV OUT or TO TV) on the VCR.

Helpful Hints:

–Most commercial video cassettes and DVDs are copy-protected and therefore cannot be recorded.

–Connect the recorder directly to the TV. If there is a VCR or an additional device in between, the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection system built into this recorder.

TIPS: Before making or changing any connections, make sure that all the devices are disconnected from the power outlet.
