Easy connections

The setup described below is a basic setup that allows you to watch and record TV programmes, and play discs. Other types of connections are explained starting on the following page.

Important

• These connections use SCART cables (not supplied). If your TV (or VCR) does not have a SCART connection, and you want to use the supplied audio/ video cable, see Basic connections on page 10.

• The AV1 (RGB)-TVAV connector can output ordinary (composite), S-video or RGB video, plus stereo analog audio. The AV2 (INPUT 1/DECODER) connector accepts ordinary, S-video and RGB video input, as well as stereo analog audio. See AV1 Out and AV2/L1 In on page 140 for how to setup these options.

• Before making or changing any rear panel connections, make sure that all components are switched off and unplugged from the wall outlet.

2Use a SCART cable (not supplied) to connect the AV1 (RGB)-TV AV connector on this recorder to the SCART AV connector on your TV.

3Use another SCART cable to connect the AV2 (INPUT 1/DECODER) AV connector to a SCART AV connector on your VCR.

Tip

•This recorder has a ‘through’ function which allows you to record a TV programme from the built-in TV tuner in this recorder while watching a video playing on your VCR (To use this feature when the recorder is in standby, Power Save must be set to Off — see Power Save on page 137).

Using the S-video or component video output

If you can’t use the SCART AV connector to connect your TV to this recorder, there are standard audio/video output jacks, as well as an S-video and component video output.
