Connecting Your
Dual-Deck VCR
T
his chapter will walk you through the necessary steps to
hook up your VCR. Your Dual-Deck VCR connects to
your TV and antenna in exactly the same way as any other
VCR. If you already own a VCR, take a few minutes to note
how it is hooked up. Then simply swap the Dual-Deck with
your old VCR using the same settings and connections.
Choosing the Right Hookup
Choose the appropriate hookup from the following list:
1
If you are connecting your Dual-Deck VCR to a basic
antenna or cable system, use the Basic Antenna/
Cable Hookup on page 8.
2
If you have a cable system with a converter box (some or
all channels are scrambled or premium), you have two
choices:
a. Cable Converter Box Hookup - Pro: You can watch
and record any cable channel to which you subscribe.
Con: You cannot watch a second channel while you
are recording a cable channel. See page 39.
b. Alternative Cable Converter Box Hookup - Pro:
You can watch a second channel while you are
recording a TV program. Con: You can only record
non-scrambled channels. See page 40.
3
If you wish to listen to your TV and VCR through your
stereo system, see Audio Connections on page 42.
4
If you have a TV with audio/video input jacks and desire
better quality, you can connect your VCR to your TV
with RCA cables. See Monitor Connections on page 43.
5
If you wish to connect your Dual-Deck VCR
to another VCR, laser disc player, DVD
player, video camera, camcorder, satellite
receiver or video game, see Connecting
Other Video Equipment on page 44.
