Connecting other AV sources

Connecting a VCR or analog

camcorder

1 Connect a set of audio and video
inputs of your VCR or camcorder to a set
of outputs on this recorder.
This enables you to record from this recorder
to your VCR or camcorder.
• You can use standard video or S-video
cables for the video connection.
• Alternatively, you can use the
AV2
(INPUT 1/DECODER)
SCART connector
for audio/video input and output with
just one SCART cable.
2 Connect a set of audio and video
outputs of your VCR or camcorder to a
set of inputs on this recorder.
This enables you to record tapes from your
VCR or camcorder.
• You can use standard video or S-video
cables for the video connection.
• The front panel connections make
convenient connections for a camcorder
input.
When connecting an external AV source
that only supports monaural sound, only
insert the left (white) audio jack to this
device. Doing so will allow the same
sound track to be recorded to both
channels. You must connect to the
INPUT 2
jack on the front panel.

Connecting a DV camcorder

You can connect a DV camcorder or DVD
recorder with DV output to the front panel
DV IN
jack.
Important
• This jack is for connection to DV
equipment only. It is not compatible with
digital satellite receivers or D-VHS video
decks.
Use a DV cable (not supplied) to
connect the DV jack of your DV
camcorder to the front panel DV IN
jack of this recorder.

After checking all the connections, plug in
the recorder.
