Connections

ips

Depending on your TV and other equipment you wish
to connect, there are various ways you could connect
the recorder. Use only one of the connections
described below.
Please refer to the manuals of your TV, VCR, Stereo
System or other devices as necessary to make the
best connections.

Caution

– Make sure the Recorder is connected directly to the

TV. Tune the TV to the correct video input channel.

– Do not connect the Recorder’s AUDIO OUT jack to

the phono in jack (record deck) of your audio system.

– Do not connect your Recorder via your VCR. The

DVD image could be distorted by the copy protection
system.

Connecting to the Aerial

Remove the aerial cable plug from your TV set and
insert it into the aerial socket at the back of the
recorder. Plug one end of the aerial cable into the TV
socket on the recorder and the other end into the aerial
input socket on your TV set.

RF coaxial connection

Connect the RF. OUT jack on the Recorder to the aerial
input jack on the TV using the 75-ohm Coaxial Cable
supplied (R). The RF. OUT jack passes the signal
through from the AERIAL jack.

Progressive Scan on the recorder.

VIDEO OUT jacks on the Recorder to the correspon-
ding input jacks on the TV using an Y Pb Pr cable (C).
