External Monitor Options
1. The DVD
Pak
may be used with an external SeeSnake
monitor by connecting an RCA cable found in the
pouch attached to the shoulder strap, from the Video
Out port on the monitor. Connect the other end of the
cable to the yellow DVD
Pak
video input port on the
back of the DVD

2. The A/V out port will pass through live video
from the camera and live audio from the microphone
out to another DVDR or monitor. (If connected to a
monitor which has speakers it may cause a feedback
squeal; this can be prevented by muting the micro-
phone with the Mute Switch).
The A/V out port does not transmit recorded video or
audio output from the Sony DVDR.
