MAKING CONNECTIONS

You can connect your VCP to a TV/monitor, a VCR (video cassette recorder), or both. To help you make the right connections:

•If connecting a TV, use the connections described in “Connecting a Standard TV” on Page 7.

A standard TV can receive broadcast TV signals from an antenna or cable system, and can be tuned to different channels to view the broadcasts. It does not have separate audio and video input jacks.

•If connecting a monitor or TV/monitor, use the connections described in “Connecting a TV/Monitor” on Page 8. (You need an additional audio/video cable to make this connection.)

A TV/monitor is like a standard TV, but it also has separate audio and video input jacks. Using the separate audio and video input jacks results in a better quality picture and sound.

•If you want to connect a VCR to the VCP for copying tapes, use the connections described in “Connecting a VCR” on Page 9. (You need an additional audio/video cable to make this connection.)

Note to the CATV System Installer: This

reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to article 820-40 of the National Electrical Code that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
