SETTING THE CHANNEL SWITCH
CHANNEL, on the back of the VCP, determines on which channel a standard TV receives the VCP’s signal. Set CHANNEL to 3 for channel 3, or 4 for channel 4.

Notes:
•If possible, set CHANNEL to a channel on which you do not receive regular television broadcasts.
•The CHANNEL setting has no effect on the audio and video outputs, nor does it affect a standard TV’s operation when the VCP is not playing a tape.
CONNECTING POWER
Using the supplied adapters, you can power your VCP from either a standard AC outlet or your vehicle’s
Cautions:
•If you use the VCP in areas of high humidity or move it from a cold area to a warm one, allow it to warm up for about 2 hours before you plug it in and operate it, so any moisture inside can completely evaporate.
•If moisture has formed inside the VCP, it might not operate after you connect power (see “Dew Protection System” on Page 12).
Using AC Power
The supplied AC adapter lets you power the VCP from a standard AC outlet.
Cautions:
You must use a Class 2 power
!source that supplies 14V DC and delivers at least 850 mA.
Its center tip must be set to positive and its plug must fit the VCP's
jack. The supplied adapter meets these specifications. Using an adapter that does not meet these specifications could damage the VCP or the adapter.
•When you unplug the AC adapter, grasp the adapter’s plug, not its cord.
•Always plug the AC adapter into the VCP before you plug it into the AC outlet. Always unplug the AC adapter from the outlet before you unplug it from the VCP.
