CABLE

Carry out the connections shown opposite, using a good quality euroconnector cable.

If your video recorder does not have a euroconnector socket, the only connection possible is via the aerial cable.You will therefore need to tune in your video recorder's test signal and assign it programme number 0 (refer to manual store, p. 5).

To reproduce the video recorder picture, press 0.

Video recorder with decoder

Connect the decoder to the second euroconnector socket of the video recorder.You will then be able to record scrambled transmissions.

Satellite receiver, decoder, CDV, games, etc. Carry out the connections shown opposite.

To optimise picture quality, connect the equipment which produces the RGB signals (digital decoder, games, etc.) to EXT1, and the equipment which produces the S-VHS signals (S-VHS and Hi-8 video recorders, certain DVD drives) to EXT2 and all other equipment to either EXT1 or EXT2.

To select connected equipment
