CONNECTING RADICA PLAY TV PING PONG™
TO YOUR TV OR VCR
CONNECTING TO A TV
NOTE: To connect Play TV Ping Pong™ directly to a TV, the TV
must be equipped with audio and video input jacks. They are
commonly found on the front of the TV near the contrast, color,
and picture adjustment controls, or on the rear of the TV near the
antenna and cable/satellite jacks.
If your TV does have audio and video input jacks, insert the yellow
video plug into the video-in (yellow) jack on your TV; the white
audio plug into the left audio-in (white) jack; and the red audio plug
into the right audio-in (red) jack. Then set the TV to the appropriate
video input mode (see your TV operating manual for details).
Please Note: If your TV is not stereo, you can either plug the
white audio plug into the audio-in jack and leave the red audio
plug disconnected, or, if you would like to hear sounds from both
the left and right audio channels, you can use a 2 into 1 audio
cable (available at your local electronics store) to connect both the
white and red plugs to the single audio-in jack.
If your TV does not have audio and video input jacks, you may
connect Ping Pong through a VCR connected to your TV.
CONNECTING TO A VCR
To connect Play TV Ping Pong™ to the VCR connected to your
TV, insert the yellow video plug into the video-in (yellow) jack on
your VCR; the white audio plug into the left audio-in (white) jack;
and the red audio plug into the right audio-in (red) jack. Then set
the TV and VCR to the appropriate video input modes (see your
VCR and TV operating manuals for details).
Please Note: If your VCR is not stereo, you can either plug the
white audio plug into the audio-in jack and leave the red audio
plug disconnected, or, if you would like to hear sounds from both
the left and right audio channels, you can use a 2 into 1 audio
cable (available at your local electronics store) to connect both the
white and red plugs to the single audio-in jack.

the Console are in direct line of sight, free of obstacles.
WARNING: Make sure the Console is located far enough from the
TV and from other people, animals, and objects to avoid striking
