INSTALLING YOUR NEW RECORDER
Basic Connection
It’s essential that your video recorder be properly
connected.
A
Check the contents.
Make sure the package contains all of the accessories
listed in “Check Contents” on page 101.
B
Situate the recorder.
Place the recorder on a stable, horizontal surface.
C
Connect the recorder to TV.
A
Disconnect the TV aerial cable from the TV.
B
Connect the TV aerial cable to the ANTENNA IN
connector on the rear panel of the recorder.
C
Connect the provided RF cable between the
ANTENNA OUT connector on the rear panel of the
recorder and the TV’s aerial connector.
D
Connect the provided 21-pin SCART cable between
the L-1 IN/OUT connector on the rear panel of the
recorder and the TV’s 21-pin SCART connector.
●
The 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 (
墌
pg. 68). 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 13.
D
Connect the recorder to mains.
Plug the end of the mains power cord into a mains outlet.
ATTENTION:
Your TV must have a 21-pin AV input connector
(SCART) for the connection to the recorder.
