Connecting to a VCR or other similar device
This connection enables you to record
from a video tape to the HDD or a
recordable DVD and allows the VCR to
be used for playback if the recorder is
turned off.
IMPORTANT!
Your new recorder can replace the
VCR for all your recording needs.
Just unplug all the connections to
your VCR.
A Connect the existing Antenna/Satellite/
Cable TV signal (or from the Cable Box/
Satellite Receiver, labelled as RF OUT or
TO TV) to the ANTENNA socket on
the recorder.
B Use another RF coaxial cable to connect
the TV socket on the recorder to the
antenna input socket on the TV.
C Use the SCART cable to connect the
EXT1 TO TV-I/O scart socket on the
recorder to the corresponding SCART
input socket on the TV.
D Use another SCART cable to connect the
EXT2 AUX-I/O scart socket on the
recorder to the SCART output socket
(or labelled as TV OUT or TO TV) on
the VCR.
Helpful Hints:
– Most commercial video cassettes and
DVDs are copy-protected and therefore
cannot be recorded.
– Connect the recorder directly to the
TV. If there is a VCR or an additional device
in between, the picture quality may be poor
because of the copy protection system built
into the recorder.
