Connections
ips
Depending on your TV and other equipment you wish
to connect, there are various ways you could connect
the VCR/DVD Recorder. Use only one of the connec-
tions described below.
Please refer to the manuals of your TV, VCR, Stereo
System or other devices as necessary to make the
best connections.
For better sound reproduction, connect the recorder’s
AUDIO OUT jacks to the audio in jacks of your
amplifier, receiver, stereo or audio/video equipment.
See “Connecting to Optional Equipment” on page 16.
Caution
Make sure the VCR/DVD Recorder is connected
directly to the TV. Tune the TV to the correct video
input channel.
Do not connect the VCR/DVD Recorder’s AUDIO
OUT jack to the phono in jack (record deck) of your
audio system.
Do not connect your VCR/DVD Recorder via your
VCR. The DVD image could be distorted by the copy
protection system.
Connecting Antenna/Cable TV to
VCR/DVD Recorder
11
Disconnect the antenna leads from the rear of the
TV.
22
Identify the type of cable from your antenna. If it is
a round cable as illustrated, it is a 75 ohm coaxial
antenna cable. This cable will connect directly to
the jack marked ANT.IN on your Recorder.
ip
If your antenna lead wire is a flat type antenna cable,
connect it to an Antenna Adapter (300-ohm to 75-ohm)
(not supplied) and slip the Adapter onto the ANT.IN
jack. The Adapter does not screw on to the VCR/DVD
Recorder, it just slips over the jack.
Cable Service Without Cable Box
If your cable wire is connected to your TV without a converter
or descrambler box, unscrew the wire from your TV and attach
it to the ANT.IN jack on the
VCR/DVD Recorder . Use the
supplied round coaxial cable to connect between the
VCR/DVD Recorder’s OUT TO TV jack and the 75 ohm anten-
na input jack on the TV. With this connection, you can receive
all midband, super band, and hyperband channels. (All cable
channels.)
Cable Service With Cable Box
If a converter is required in your cable system, follow the
instruction below:
The cable hookup permits both TV and VCR/DVD Recorder
operation.
To view or record a CATV channel
1 Tune the TV to the correct video input channel.
2 Set the VCR/DVD Recorder channel selector to the output
channel of the Cable Converter box using CH (v / V) or
number (0-9) of your VCR/DVD Recorder. (Example: CH3)
3 Select the channel to view at the Cable Converter Box.

If you are using a cable box to tune channels, it is not neces-
sary to do Auto Channel Set as indicated on page 18.
