Hardware Installation
Therefore the unit must be connected to the VCR. By connecting the
TView Silver unit you will also be able to record the computer screen
to videotape.
To connect your TView Silver to a VCR, perform the following
steps:
1.
Connect one end of the supplied composite video cable or S-
Video cable to the port at the rear of the TView Silver labeled
either "Comp Video" or "S-Video".
2.
Connect the other end of the composite cable or S-Video cable
to the port at the rear of your VCR labeled "Video Input" or
“AUX-IN,” “AV-IN,” or “S-VIDEO IN.”
3.
Turn on the VCR.
4.
Turn on your television and tune it to channel 3 or 4.
5.
Turn the TView Silver unit on.
6.
Turn the computer on.
7.
Find a button on the front of the VCR called "Line," "TV/Video,"
"Video Input," or something similar. Press the button. If the
cables have been connected correctly, the image from the
computer monitor should now appear on the television screen.
Note
If your VCR does not have a button specifying video-in,
use your VCR’s remote control to find an on-screen
programming system. Using the programming system,
set the VCR to receive external video. If you are unsure
about how to do this, refer to the VCR owner’s manual.
