CONNECTING A VIDEO COMPONENT FOR INPUT
Please follow the steps below to display CDG lyrics on the Singing Machine’s monitor from
another video source:
(4) Set the FUNCTION Selector to AUX and the MONITOR Selector to CDG.
(5) Adjust the BRIGHTNESS, CONTRAST and VERTICAL HOLD Controls at the back of
the Singing Machine to have the best picture quality.
Your Singing Machine is designed to connect to your TV the same way you would connect a
video camera, VCR or video game. The Singing Machine is constantly sending the video and
audio signals to the 'Video Out' and 'AUX OUT' jacks whenever you play a CDG. So, load a CDG
into your Singing Machine before you start making these connections. You will see lyrics on the
TV screen as soon as you get the setup completed correctly.
We refer to TV/VCR because manufacturers use very similar ways to connect TVs and VCRs
and you can connect your Singing Machine to a TV, VCR or satellite system. The setup of your
TV/VCR is the most difficult part of making the connection for displaying your Singing Machine
lyrics. In most homes, the TV has either a cable connected or antennae in use. Once you
connect your Singing Machine to the TV/VCR, you must 'tell' your TV/VCR to display the input
from the Singing Machine instead of the usual input from the cable or antennae.
Check your TV/VCR user manual for the easiest way to setup your particular entertainment
system. If you don't have your manual you can always call your TV/VCR manufacturer for that
information or try hitting their website for online assistance. We've listed below the most
common ways of setting up a TV/VCR:
In the setup menu for configuring the TV/VCR there may be an option on 'Input Selection'
where you may choose between 'Cable/Ant.', 'Video 1', or 'Video 2' etc. as the input source.
Try looking for a 'Video' channel between the highest channel and the lowest channel on
your TV or VCR. (i.e. Between 99 and 2 may be 'VIDEO' or 'INPUT' or 'GAME')
(3) Look for a button on the remote control for the TV/VCR you are connecting to that says
'VIDEO', 'VIDEO 1', 'Game', 'AUX', 'EXT', 'LINE1', 'LINE-IN' or occasionally the 'VCR'
button will display the Video input source.
(1) Locate the multicolored patch cords.
(2) Connect video cable (yellow) to the Video In of the back of the Singing Machine.
(3) Connect the other end of the video cable (yellow) to the Video Output on another video
source such as a VCR.
