RCA 27V412T manual Basic TV to VCR Connection

Basic TV to VCR Connection

The basic component (VCR, DVD player etc.) to TV connection is described below. For other hookups, refer to your component’s instruction manual.

Connect the audio cables (white and red) to the AUDIO INPUT jacks on the TV and to the AUDIO OUT jacks on the VCR (or other component). Match the cable color to the jack color.

If your component has an S-Video jack, connect an S-Video cable to the S-VIDEO jack on the back of the TV to the S-Video jack on the component. If your component doesn’t have an S-Video jack go to item 3.

Connect a video cable (yellow) to the VIDEO INPUT jack on the TV and to the VIDEO OUT jack on your VCR (or other component).

Turn on the TV and the other component.

Press the INPUT button on the remote control until the correct video input channel appears in the upper right corner of the TV screen. When you play material on the VCR, DVD player, etc. that is connected to the AUDIO and VIDEO jacks it will appear on the TV on the video input channel. (The bottom of page 4 has a complete list.)

Helpful Hints

Audio and video cables are not supplied with the TV. Audio cables are usually red and white. Video cables are usually yellow.

Your VCR may not have Audio and Video Out jacks, but only an RF or ANTENNA OUT jack.

Use a coaxial cable to connect the VCR’s ANTENNA OUT jack to the TV’s 75 OHM ANTENNA INPUT jack.

S-Video provides a clearer picture than the standard video (the yellow jack). Choose the S-VIDEOchannel to view material playing on equipment connected to the S-VIDEO jack.

Use either the S-VIDEO jack or the VIDEO INPUT jack. Do not use both at the same time for the same piece of equipment.

This would interfere with the picture display. If both are used, S-VIDEO has priority over the yellow VIDEO INPUT jack.
