INSTALLING YOUR NEW RECORDER

Basic Connections

It’s essential that your video recorder be properly
connected.

Make sure the package contains all of the accessories
listed in “SPECIFICATIONS” on page 66.

B

Situate the recorder.

Place the recorder on a stable, horizontal surface.

C

Connect the recorder to TV.

The connection method you use depends on the type of
TV you have.

RF Connection

8

To connect to a TV with NO AV input connectors . . .

A Disconnect the TV aerial cable from the TV.

B Connect the TV aerial cable to the ANT. IN connector

on the rear panel of the recorder.

C Connect the provided RF cable between the RF OUT

connector on the rear panel of the recorder and the
TV’s aerial connector.

AV Connection

8

To connect to a TV with AV input connectors . . .

A Connect the aerial, recorder and TV as per “RF

Connection”.

B Connect an optional 21-pin SCART cable between the

AV1 (L-1) IN/OUT connector on the rear panel of the
recorder and the TV’s 21-pin SCART connector.

D

Connect the recorder to mains.

Plug the end of the mains power cord into a mains outlet.

Make AV connection if your TV has a 21-pin AV input
connector (SCART) in order to reduce the possibility of
interference. With AV connection, you can enjoy
stereo playback of video tapes if you are using a stereo
TV.

NOTES:

The AV1 (L-1) IN/OUT connector accepts and delivers

either a composite signal (regular video signal) or a Y/C
signal (a signal in which the luminance and chrominance
signals are separated). If your TV’s 21-pin AV input
connector (SCART) is compatible with the Y/C signal, set
“L-1 OUTPUT” to “S-VIDEO” after the connection and the
initial settings are completed (

pg. 42). You can obtain

high-quality S-VHS pictures. (For connection, be sure to
use a 21-pin SCART cable that is compatible with the Y/C
signal.)

Set your TV to the VIDEO (or AV), Y/C, or RGB mode

according to the type of your TV’s SCART connector.

For switching the TV’s mode, refer to the instruction

manual of your television.

To obtain high-quality S-VHS pictures, you can also use the

S-VIDEO connection described on page 11.
