Notes:

≥Before connecting any cables, first make sure that the power for both VCRs is off.

≥Insert a recorded cassette into the playback VCR, and a cassette with the closed record prevention tab into the VCR.

≥When the units are connected using the DV cable and editing is performed, some editing functions will differ compared with when the units are connected using the AV cable. Refer to Glossary of Terms on [R58].

≥Use Time codes for programme editing when the playback VCR is connected to the NV-DV2000 via only a DV cable.

≥It is recommended that the DV cable be disconnected for editing with INPUT SELECT set to A1-A4. If INPUT SELECT is set to A1-A4with the connections shown in the figure left unchanged, the TV picture may be disturbed or noise may occur. (This has no effect on the actual editing operations.)

≥If one of either the 21-pin scart cable or the AV cables is connected, it is not necessary to connect the other. If both cables are connected, electronic noise may be generated when the playback VCR and the recording VCR are in stop mode. Although this noise will not have any effect on the actual editing operations, if it does become annoying, set INPUT SELECT on the playback VCR to a position for which no cable is connected.

≥When the connections and setting are made as shown above, then:

≥The 1 (PLAY), 5 (FAST FORWARD), ¥ (REC/ OTR), and the other such buttons on the playback VCR or the Editing controller cannot be used to control the playback VCR directly.

≥Do not change Edit Terminal or Edit Mode settings while performing setting or editing operations at SET UP or EDIT MENU screens. Be sure to quit these screens before changing these settings.
