CConnecting additional devices

Connecting additional devices to the second scart socket

You can connect additional devices such as decoders, satellite receivers, camcorders, etc. to the EXT 2 AUX-I/Osocket. When playback is started on this additional device the DVD recorder automatically connects the EXT 2 AUX-I/Oscart socket with the EXT 1 TO TV-I/Oscart socket. You will then see the picture from the additional device on your TV set, even if the DVD recorder is switched off.

The TV/DVD button on the remote control allows you to switch between playback through the EXT 2 AUX-I/Oscart socket and playback from the DVD recorder.

Connecting additional video recorders

You can connect a video recorder to the EXT 2 AUX-I/Osocket.

If you have an SVHS video recorder you can also use the OUT S-VIDEO (Y/C) socket and the

OUT L AUDIO R sockets.
