An S-VHS or standard camcorder can be connected directly to
your TV. If you have an S-VHS camcorder, connect the S-VHS
video cable to the
S-VIDEO
connector on your TV. If you have
a standard VHS camcorder, connect the video cable to the
VIDEO INPUT 1 jack on the back of your TV. With either
video connection, attach the audio cable to the INPUT I
R/MONO
audio jack.
Notes:
When the Adapter’s S-VHS Cable is connected to the S-VIDEO
connector, the video plug does not have to be connected. However, you
may prefer to plug it in anyway to keep it out of the way. The S-VHS
video will automatically override the
VIDEO INPUT I signal when you
select Channel 90.
S-VHS or Standard VHS Camcorder
(This connection allows you to record onto the camcorder
whatever is currently being displayed on the TV screen.)
Be sure to connect the video cable, however, if you plan to use the
camcorder for picture-in-picture viewing or if you plan to use the
SELECT OUT jacks for recording. When recording from the SELECT
OUT jacks, tune to channel 91 to see the signal from the camcorder.
When displaying picture-in-picture, the TV automatically minimizes
any annoying differences in tint between the smalt and large picture by
electronically coupling the
S-VIDEO input to the VIDEO 1 input.
Operation:
• If the camcorder is connected to the
VIDEO INPUT I
jack
(instead of the
S-VIDEO
connector), select channel 91 on the
TV to view whatever the camcorder is playing.
• If the camcorder is connected to the
S-VIDEO
connector and
INPUT 1
audio jack, select channel 90 on the TV to view
whatever the camcorder is playing.

Video
AV IN Jack
(AudioA/ideo In)
This connection will let you record onto the camcorder
whatever is being displayed on the screen such as a TV
program. You’ll also be able to record signals from a VCR (or
similar device) that is connected to the TV’s
INPUT
i or 2
jacks.
The TV must remain turned on during recording. If you change
channels on the TV, the channel change will be recorded on the
camcorder tape unless you pause the camcorder during
recording.
You may also want to use this connection to dub or edit VCR
tapes with two or three camcorders (or VCR’s). By connecting
one camcorder (or VCR) to the
INPUT I
jacks and another
camcorder (or VCR) to the INPUT 2 jacks, you’ll be able to
selectively edit and record whatever is playing on the TV screen
onto a third camcorder connected as shown here to the
SELECT OUT jacks.
If you connect a surveillance system to your monitor, you’ll be
able to record what the camera is displaying on the TV screen
by connecting a camcorder (or VCR ) to the
SELECT OUT
jacks as shown here.
Just remember that you’ll be able to record whatever is being
displayed on the TV screen. To see the signal from a device
connected to the
INPUT 1
jacks, select channel 91. Select
channel 92 to see the signal from a device connected to the
INPUT 2 jacks.
Notes; Signals from the S-VIDEO connector do not come thru the
SELECT OUT jacks. To record from an S-VHS component, remember
to also connect its regular video cable to the VIDEO INPUT I jack and
then tune the TV to channel 91.
Menus, status displays, and special features such as picture-in-picture
and channel guide will not appear in the recording.
