Recording from other equipment
◆
Select the video channel on your television so you can monitor the recording.
Recording through the aerial cable
Please read ‘Connecting extra equipment - Through the aerial cable’ on page 11. Press the
PR+ or PR- button to select the video recorder programme number that you have tuned to that
piece of equipment, then record as usual.
Recording through the scart cable
If the equipment is connected with a scart cable, press the AV button on the remote control
to make ‘AU1’ or ‘AU2’ appear in the video recorder display panel. ‘AU1’ means the lower
scart socket (EURO AV1) is being used for the recording. ‘AU2’ means the upper scart socket
(EURO AV2/ DECODER) is being used for the recording. After a few seconds, ‘AU’ will change
to either the time or the tape counter, depending on whether or not you selected the tape
counter with the information display button
. You can check again that you have selected
the AV channel by using the information display button (please see ‘On-screen information
display’ on page 26).
Change back to programme numbers by pressing the AV button until a ‘PR’ number appears
briefly in the video recorder display.
Recording through the front input sockets
Camcorders and similar equipment can be connected to the front AV (audio / video) input
sockets of the video recorder. Press the AV button on the remote control twice until ‘AU F’
appears in the video recorder display panel. After a few seconds, ‘AU F’ changes to either the
time or the tape counter, depending on whether or not you selected the tape counter with the
information display button. You can check again that you have selected the AV channel by
using the information display button (please see ‘On-screen information display’ on page 26).
Change back to programme numbers by pressing the AV button until a ‘PR’ number appears
briefly in the video recorder display.
