Connecting Another VCR or Similar Device

When you connect additional equipment to this recorder, be sure to connect the mains lead only after all connections are complete (page 20).

See also the instruction manual supplied with the connected equipment.

To record on this recorder, select an input source (LINE 2 or LINE 3) to match the jack you connected to. See “Recording From Connected Equipment Without a Timer” on pages 58 and 88. Connect the equipment to the LINE 3/DECODER jack of the recorder to record using the Synchro Rec function (pages 55 and 85). Note that this recorder has a copy guard function (pages 49 and 79). Pictures containing copy protection signals that prohibit any copying cannot be recorded. You cannot dub from DVD VIDEOs to this recorder.

Connecting to the LINE 2 IN jacks on the front panel

Connect another VCR or similar recording device to the LINE 2 IN jacks of this recorder. If the equipment has an S video jack, you can use an S video cord (not supplied) instead of the yellow (video) plug of the audio/video cord. You can connect a second DVD player and record DVDs.
