Connecting with Video (CVBS) cable

This cable, usually featuring yellow plugs, is used for transmitting the Composite Video signal (FBAS, CVBS). In this method of transmission the color signal and the brightness signal are transmitted on the same cable. Under certain circumstances, this may lead to problems with the picture, such as 'Moiré' patterns. However, it is one of the most common and likely connections to a TV.

Have the following cables ready:

an RF coaxial cable (1, supplied), a power cable (2, supplied), a video (CVBS) cable (3, with yellow ends), and an audio cables (4 with red/white ends).

1Remove the antenna or Cable TV signal from your TV. Connect it to the ANTENNA IN jack at the back of the DVD recorder.

2Connect one end of the supplied RF coaxial cable to the TV OUT jack at the back of the DVD Recorder and connect the

other end to the antenna input jack on TV.

3Connect a video (CVBS) cable to the yellow VIDEO (CVBS) OUT jack at the back of the DVD Recorder and to the Video In

jack (usually yellow) of the TV (usually called Video in or AV in. See your TV's instruction manual).

4Connect an audio cable to the red/white L AUDIO R OUT jacks at the back of the DVD Recorder (under VIDEO (CVBS) ) and

to the corresponding red/white audio input jacks of the TV (usually called 'Audio in' or 'AV in'. See your TV's instruction manual).

5Switch on the TV. Switch the TV to the Video/Audio input channel. For the channel number, please see your TV's instruction

manual.
