Connecting to a VCR or
other similar device
This connection enables you to record
from video tape to a DVD+R/+RW and
allows the VCR to be used for playback if
the DVD recorder is turned off.
A splitter (not supplied) is required for
this connection.
1
Connect the Antenna/Cable TV signal to a
splitter. Then connect the RF coaxial
cables from the splitter to the antenna
input (RF IN) jack on the VCR and the
ANTENNA
recorder.
2
Use the supplied RF coaxial cable to
connect the antenna output (RF OUT)
jack on the VCR to the antenna input jack
on the TV.
TIPS: Before making or changing any connections, make sure that all the devices are disconnected from
the power outlet.

Helpful Hints:
– You may use the S-VIDEO (Y/C) jack
instead of VIDEO (CVBS) jack if the
connected device has the same S-VIDEO
input/output jack. This video connection
provides better picture quality.
– Most commercial video cassettes and
DVDs are copy-protected and therefore
cannot be recorded.
– Connect the DVD 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 DVD recorder.
