Preparing Your Receiver
Connecting Video Sources
If you connect two video sources such as VCRs or laser disc players to your
receiver, you can use the receiver to switch between viewing the sources. You
can also use the receiver to easily record from the video sources to the source
connected to
VCR/TAPE 1 .
Connect phono cables from a VCR’s audio outputs to the receiver’s VCR/TAPE 1
or LD IN (audio) jacks. Then connect phono cables from the receiver’s VCR/
TAPE 1 OUT (audio) jacks to the VCR’s audio input jacks.
Connect video cables from each video source’s video outputs to the receiver’s
VCR/TAPE 1 or LD VIDEO IN jacks. Then connect video cables from the
receiver’s VCR/TAPE 1 VIDEO OUT jack to the VCR’s video input.
Connecting a Video Monitor
The monitor (or TV with baseband video input) you connect to the VIDEO OUT
terminal can monitor any program you connect to the receiver’s VCR/TAPE 1 or
LD input jacks. Then connect a video cable from the receiver’s VIDEO OUT TO
MONITOR TV jack to the monitor’s video input.
Note: If your VCR is monaural, use a Y-
adapter (available at your local Radio
Shack store) to connect the VCR’s audio
output to both the
L and R audio inputs
on the receiver.
