DECODER SWITCHING OPERATION
If you have a separate decoder connected to the VCR’s L2 input as previously shown in the
“Connecting the Cables” section, you will need to set the decoder function to
ON
in order to
record the descrambled signal and/or watch it on your TV. Now, when the VCR receives a
scrambled signal it is output via LINE 2 terminal to the decoder. The decoder then outputs the
descrambled signal back to LINE 2 terminal and the signal can be recorded. The VCR outputs
the descrambled signal to your TV through the LINE1 terminal and you can watch the
descrambled picture.
When making recordings using a separate decoder connected as shown remember to leave
the decoder function ON.
If you connect a decoder unit to the VCR, the decoder unit provides a switching signal which
will automatically allow your TV to display the descrambled signal routed through the VCR. To
use this feature make sure that the VCR is connected to both TV and decoder unit by SCART
leads. Then:
•
Press
STANDBY
to place the VCR in STAND-BY mode. OR
•
Press
TV/VCR
on the remote control to place the VCR in ‘VCR mode’. ‘VCR’ will
appear on the display.
