RF CONNECTION

To connect to a TV with NO 21-pin AV input connector (SCART) . . .

1– Disconnect the TV aerial cable from the TV.

2– Connect the TV aerial cable to the ANT. IN jack on the rear panel of the recorder.

3– Connect the provided RF cable between the RF OUT jack on the rear panel of the recorder and the TV’s aerial connector.

AV CONNECTION

pin AV input connector (SCART).

NOTES:

The AV1 (L-1) IN/OUT connector accepts and delivers either a composite signal (regular video signal) or a Y/C signal (a signal in which the luminance and chrominance signals are separated). If your TV's 21-pin AV input connector (SCART) is compatible with the Y/C signal, set "L-1 OUTPUT" to "S-VIDEO" after the connection and the initial settings are completed (pg. 36). You can obtain high-quality S-VHS pictures. (For connection, be sure to use a 21-pin SCART cable that is compatible with the Y/C signal.)

Set your TV to the VIDEO (or AV), Y/C, or RGB mode according to the type of your TV's SCART connector.

For switching the TV's mode, refer to the instruction manual of your television.

To obtain high-quality S-VHS pictures, you can also use the S-VIDEO CONNECTION described on page 7.

ATTENTION

Do NOT Plug the mains power cord into a mains outlet until all connections are completed.

Do NOT press the button on the recorder or on the remote control to turn on the recorder's power before you start the Auto Set Up procedure described on page 8.
