Connecting to a VCR or
other similar device
This connection enables you to record
from a video tape to the HDD or a DVD
recordable disc and allows the VCR to be
used for playback if the recorder is
turned off.
IMPORTANT!
Your new recorder can replace the
VCR for all your recording needs.
Just unplug all the connections to
your VCR.
A Connect the Antenna/Cable TV signal to
the ANTENNA IN jack on the
recorder.
B Use a RF coaxial cable to connect the
ANTENNA OUT jack on the
recorder to the Antenna input jack on
your TV (VHF/UHF RF IN.)
C Use the audio/video cables to connect
the VIDEO/AUDIO IN on the
recorder to the matching VIDEO/
AUDIO output jacks on the VCR.
D Use the audio/video cables to connect
the VIDEO/AUDIO -OUT on the
recorder to the matching VIDEO/
AUDIO input jacks on the TV.
Helpful Hints:
– Most commercial video cassettes and
DVDs are copy-protected and therefore
cannot be recorded.
– Connect the recorder directly to the
TV. If there is a VCR or an additional device
in between, the picture quality may be poor
because of the copy protection system built
into the recorder.
