Connecting additional devices

Connecting additional devices to the second scart socket

You can connect additional devices such as decoders, satellite receivers, camcorders, etc. to the EXT2 AUX-I/Osocket.

When playback is started on this additional device the DVD recorder automatically connects the EXT2 AUX-I/Oscart socket with the EXT1 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.

OThe TV/HDD button on the remote control allows you to switch between playback through the EXT2 AUX-I/Oscart socket and playback from the DVD recorder.

Connecting an external receiver

1Connect the scart socket of the receiver (satellite receiver, set-top box, cable TV box,...) provided for the TV set (usually labelled 'TV', 'TO TV',...) with the EXT2 AUX-I/Osocket of the DVD recorder.

O If your external receiver offers several options for the signal available at the 'TV', 'TO TV',... socket, choose the 'RGB' setting.

Why can't I use the 'VCR', 'TO VCR',... socket?

In order to achieve the best possible picture quality, you must use the RGB (red-green-blue) signal of the receiver. As a rule, this signal is available at the 'TV', 'TO TV',... socket. The DVD recorder transfers the signal to the EXT1 TO TV-I/Osocket.

Some receivers only provide a 'Video (CVBS/FBAS)' signal at the 'VCR', 'TO VCR'...socket.

If you are satisfied with the picture quality of the 'VCR', 'TO VCR',...

socket, you can also use this socket.

Read the instruction manual of the receiver which signals are available at the sockets.

Connecting additional receivers

For additional receivers, you can also use the EXT1 TO TV-I/Osocket (if the TV set is connected to the COMPONENT VIDEO OUT sockets).

ENGLISH

Connecting a video recorder, DVD player.

You can also connect a video recorder or a DVD player to the EXT2 AUX-I/Oinput socket.

The DVD recorder must be connected directly to the TV set ( EXT1 TO TV-I/Osocket directly to the TV set). If there is a video recorder in between the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection system built into the DVD recorder.

OIf you already have an external receiver (satellite receiver, set-top box, cable TV box) connected to this socket, you can connect the video recorder to the 'VCR', 'TO VCR', ...socket of the external receiver.

OYou can also use the front sockets S-VIDEO (CAM1) , VIDEO (CAM1) and the L AUDIO R (CAM1) audio

sockets.
