Auxiliary (AUX): The channel to which you set your TV/VCR/DVD during dubbing or when viewing material that is playing on another device that is connected to the TV/VCR/DVD (for example, a Camcorder or VCR or TV channels from a Cable Box/Satellite Receiver). Press SELECT to choose AUX at the TV/VCR/DVD.

Bands: settings that allow you to tune channels.

•Antenna – VHF (very high frequency; channels 2-13) and UHF (ultra high frequency; channels 14-69).

•Cable – standard channels can be received without a Cable Box.

Brightness: adjusting increases or decreases the brightness of the color on the screen.

COAXIAL Digital Audio Out jack: Sends digital audio to a stereo, allow- ing you to adjust the volume at the stereo.

Dubbing: copying a videotape from a separate VCR or camcorder.

HQ: high quality; a feature in the VCR circuitry which provides enhanced videotape picture detail through the TV/VCR/DVD.

OTR: One-Touch Recording; a timed recording that starts immediately and records for 30 minutes to eight hours, whichever you specify.

Sharpness: adjusting softens or clarifies the picture on the screen.

Tape Speeds: how fast the videotape travels during playback or recording. The faster the tape speed, the better the recording quality will be. Faster speeds (SP) also use more space on the tape. So, you can put more recording on a tape if you use a slower tape speed (SLP).

•SP (standard play) – fastest tape speed (recording time for a T120 tape is approximately two hours); best picture quality.

•LP (long play) – average tape speed; only playback in this speed is available on this TV/VCR/DVD.

•SLP (super long play) – slowest tape speed (recording time for a T120 tape is approximately six hours).

Tint: adjusting changes the tints of the picture from purple to green.

VIDEO In Jack: yellow jack on the front of the TV/VCR/DVD which is used to receive or record video from another source (VCR, Camcorder, etc.).
