INSTALLATION

Connecting a Camcorder

The side panel jacks on your TV make it easy to connect a camcorder to your TV. They allow

you to view the camcorder tapes without using a VCR.

1

Locate the A/V output jacks on the

camcorder. They are usually found on

the side or rear of the camcorder.

2

Connect an audio cable between the

AUDIOOUTPUT jack on the camcorder

and the AUDIO terminals on the side of

the TV.

If you have mono camcorder, connect

L(mono) to camcorder audio out using

only one audio cable.

3

Connect a video cable between the

VIDEOOUTPUT jack on the camcorder

and the VIDEOterminal on the sidet of

the TV.

The audio-video cables shown here are

usually included with a Camcorder. (If

not, check your local electronics store.)

If your camcorder is stereo, you need to

connect a set of two cables.

Note: This figure shows the Standard Connector-jack panel. The actual configuration on your TV may

be different, depending on the model.
