Connecting external components

Inputting to and outputting from analog components

$ When an external component is to be connected and its video and audio signals are to be input to the camera recorder, connect the camera recorder to the output connectors on the external component.

$ Conversely, when an external component is to be connected and the video and audio signals of the camera recorder are to be input to the component, connect the camera recorder to the input connectors on the external component.

$ When signals from an external component are to be recorded, set the unit to the VCR mode and operate the VCR REC button to initiate recording.

O The functions provided for the input connectors and the ones provided for the

output connectors are switched automatically.

VCR REC

OBefore recording signals from an external component, check that the video signals are input.

OWhen signals from an external component are being recorded, do not stop the signal output at the external component side or disconnect any of the cables. It may not be possible for the component to be recognized when recording is resumed.

O If video signals have been input to both the S- VIDEO IN/OUT connector and VIDEO IN/OUT connector, the signals of the S-VIDEO IN/OUT connector take precedence.

O It is not possible to record the audio signals if video signals are not input to the S-VIDEO IN/OUT connector or VIDEO IN/OUT connector except when performing audio dubbing.

OWhen images containing copy-guarded signals (signals that protect copyrights) are recorded using this unit, they will appear as mosaic patterns when they are played back.
