Connecting to a VCR or
other similar device
This connection enables you to record
from a video tape to the HDD or a
recordable DVD and allows the VCR to
be used for playback if the recorder is
turned off.
IMPORTANT!
Your new recorder can replace the
VCR for all your recording needs.
Just unplug all the connections to
your VCR.

Use a SCART cable (not supplied) to
connect the EXT1 TO TV-I/O scart
socket on the recorder to the
corresponding SCART input socket on
the TV.
D
Use another SCART cable to connect the
EXT2 AUX-I/O scart socket on the

Helpful Hints:
– Most commercial video cassettes and
DVDs are copy-protected and therefore
cannot be recorded.
– Connect the recorder directly to the
TV. If there is a VCR or an additional device
in between, the picture quality may be poor
because of the copy protection system built
into the recorder.
