Connections to Your TV

Make one of the following connections, depending on the capabilities of your existing equipment.

Tips

Depending on your TV and other equipment you wish to connect, there are various ways you could connect the recorder. Use only one of the connections described below.

Please refer to the manuals of your TV, VCR, Stereo System or other devices as necessary to make the best connections.

Caution

Make sure the recorder is connected directly to the TV. Set the TV to the correct video input.

Video connection

Connect the VIDEO OUT jack on the recorder to the video in jack on the TV using the video cable (V).

Audio (Left/Right) Connection

Connect the left and right AUDIO OUT jacks of the recorder to the audio left and right IN jacks on the TV using the audio cables (A). Do not connect the recorder’s AUDIO OUT jack to the phono in jack (record deck) of your audio system.

S-Video connection

Connect the S-VIDEO OUT jack on the recorder to the S-Video in jack on the TV using the S-Video cable (S).

Component Video connection

Connect the COMPONENT / PROGRESSIVE SCAN VIDEO OUT jacks on the recorder to the corresponding input jacks on the TV using an Y Pb Pr cable (C).

If your television is a high-definition or “digital ready” television, you may take advantage of the recorder’s progressive scan output for the highest video resolution possible. If your TV does not accept the Progressive Scan format, the picture will appear scrambled if you try Progressive Scan on the recorder.

Set the [Progressive Scan] option to [ON] on the setup menu for progressive signal, see page 16.

Note:

Progressive scan does not work with the analog video connections (yellow VIDEO OUT jack) or S-VIDEO connection.

Caution

Once the setting for Progressive Scan output is entered, an image will only be visible on a Progressive Scan compatible TV or monitor. If you set Progressive Scan to [ON] in error, you must reset the recorder. First, remove the disc in the recorder. Next, press STOP (x) and hold it for five seconds before releasing it. The video output will be restored to the standard setting, and a picture will once again be visible on a conventional analog TV or monitor.
