Recording two TV programs at the same time requires two tuners – the one
in your VCR-2 and a second one from your TV, another VCR or an accessory
tuner. If your TV does not have a video output connection, you will need a
second tuner (VCR or accessory) with video output connections.
Connect the second tuner to the Audio In and Video In connections on
your VCR-2 back panel (see diagram).

15

If your second tuner’s antenna is connected the Out to TV connector on
your VCR-2, you will only be able to watch the program that is being
recorded on Deck 2. Before beginning, decide which program you want to
watch and select it last.
Turn on your TV and your VCR-2 (and the second tuner if different from
your TV).
Insert blank cassettes into Deck 1 and Deck 2.
Use the Remote Control or Front Panel to choose the channel to be
recorded on Deck 1.
πPress the Deck 1 Source button to select Tuner. The On-Screen Display
will indicate Tuner for the Deck 1 Source.
Press the Deck 1 Record button.
If the second tuner’s antenna is connected to the Out to TV connector
on your VCR-2, set the TV/VCR button to TV and do not change this
during recording. Otherwise, set the TV/VCR button to VCR and you
may switch the TV View to either deck at will.
Use the channel selector on your second tuner to choose the channel to
be recorded on Deck 2.
Press the Deck 2 Source button to select AV-IN. The Front Panel Source
Indicators will show AV-IN as the Deck 2 Source.
Press the Deck 2 Record button.
