Connecting to a VCR or other similar device

This connection enables you to record from a video tape to the HDD or a DVD recordable disc and allows the VCR to be used for playback of VCR tapes.

Before you start...

Your new recorder can replace the VCR for all your recording needs. Just unplug all the connections to your VCR.

A Connect the Antenna/Cable TV signal to the ANTENNA-IN jack on the recorder.

B Use a RF coaxial cable to connect the TV-OUT jack on the recorder to the antenna input jack on your TV (VHF/ UHF RF IN.)

C Use the audio/video cables to connect the VIDEO/AUDIO INPUT on the recorder to the matching VIDEO/AUDIO output jacks on the VCR.

D Use the audio/video cables to connect the VIDEO/AUDIO OUTPUT on the recorder to the matching VIDEO/AUDIO input jacks on the TV.

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.

TIPS: Before making or changing any connections, make sure that all the devices are disconnected from the power outlet.
