Viewing Pictures on a TV / VCR
Using the audio/video cable provided with your camera, you can connect the
COOLPIX5700 to a TV or VCR.
1 Connect the cable to the camera
Connect the black plug to the camera’s A / V
OUT connector.
2 Connect the cable to the video device
Connect the yellow plug to the video-in jack
on the TV or VCR. Connect the white plug to
the audio-in jack.
Auto Off
When using the camera with the EN-EL1 battery (provided) or a 2CR5 (DL245)
(available separately), the camera will turn off automatically if no operations
are performed for a specified period of time. Output to the TV will stop and
the screen will go blank, however, pressing the shutter-release button half-
way or pressing the
button will restart output to the TV. The time limit for
auto power off can be chosen from 30 seconds (the default setting), one
minute , five minutes, and 30 minutes using the Auto Off menu (
133).
When using a battery, we recommend choose a later time limit. For extended
use, connect the camera to an optional AC adapter.
Choosing a Video Mode ( 142)
The Video Mode menu offers a choice of NTSC and PAL standards for video
output. Be sure that the standard selected matches that of any video device
to which you connect the camera.
