Connecting up

Easy connections

The setup described below is a basic setup that allows you to watch and record TV programs,
and play discs. Other types of connections are explained starting on the following page.
Important
• These connections use SCART cables (not supplied). If your TV (or VCR) does not have a
SCART connection, if you want to use the supplied audio/video cable, see Using the
supplied audio/video cable on page 18.
• The AV1(RGB)-TV AV connector can output ordinary (composite), S-video or RGB video,
plus stereo analog audio. The AV2(INPUT 1/DECODER) connector accepts ordinary, S-
video and RGB video input, as well as stereo analog audio. See AV1 Out on page 141 and
AV2/L1 In on page 142 for how to set them up.
• Before making or changing any rear panel connections, make sure that all components
are switched off and unplugged from the wall outlet.

between the antenna wall outlet and the
antenna input on the recorder).

connect the AV1(RGB)-TV AV connector on
this recorder to the SCART AV connector on
your TV.

Tip
• This recorder has a 'through' function
which allows you to record a TV program
from the built-in TV tuner in this recorder
while watching a video playing on your
VCR (To use this feature when the
recorder is in standby, Power Save
must be set to Off—see Power Save on
page 137).
