If you want to connect additional devices (e.g. satellite receiver...) only via aerial cable, please observe the following:

The DVD-Recorder must be connected directly to the TV set. If there is a video recorder or an additional device in between, the picture quality may be poor because of the copy protection system built into the DVD-Recorder.

The additional device (satellite receiver) must be connected before the DVD recorder (additional device - DVD recorder - TV set). Only the TV set must be connected to the TV OUT socket.

If there is interference in the picture when the additional device is switched on, a TV broadcaster may be transmitting on the same channel or a channel very close to that of the additional device. (e.g.: TV broadcaster on channel 45, additional device (satellite receiver) also on channel 45). In this case, change the channel of the additional device (satellite receiver). Consult the instruction manual of the additional device.

You must also store this channel on the DVD recorder to be able to record TV programmes from the additional device (satellite receiver).

Switch on the additional device during the installation of the DVD recorder. During the automatic channel search, the channel on which the additional device is transmitting will be stored as a TV channel.

To copy camcorder recordings, you can use the front sockets. These sockets are located behind the flap on the right hand side.

Recordings from the front sockets were stored on the HDD to make editing easy. Then you can transfer (archive) them on a DVD+RW/+R.

Digital (DV) input socket

If you have a DV or Digital 8 camcorder, connect the DV IN (CAM2) input of the DVD recorder to the appropriate DV output on the camcorder.

Choose '￿￿￿￿' as a programme number for this input.

During recording on the HDD or a DVD+RW/+R the original recording date and time are stored as DVD subtitles.

On playback, this data can be displayed on the TV screen by using the 'E' function (Subtitle).

S socket

If you have a Hi8 or S-VHS(C) camcorder, connect the S-VIDEO (CAM1) input of the DVD recorder to the appropriate S-VHS output on the camcorder.

You must also connect the audio input L AUDIO R (CAM1) on the DVD recorder to the audio output on the camcorder.

Choose '￿￿￿￿' as a programme number for this input.

Video (CVBS) input socket

If you have a camcorder that only has a single video output (Composite Video, CVBS), connect the VIDEO (CAM1) input on the DVD recorder to the appropriate output on the camcorder.

You must also connect the audio input L AUDIO R (CAM1) on the DVD recorder to the audio output on the camcorder.

Choose '￿￿￿￿' as a programme number for this input.
