Viewing the recording on TV
If your TV or VCR is a monaural
type
Connect the yellow plug of the A/V connecting
cable to the video input jack and the white or the
red plug to the audio input jack on the VCR or
the TV. If you connect the white plug, the sound
is L (left) signal. If you connect the red plug, the
sound is R (right) signal.
If your TV/VCR has a 21-pin
connector (EUROCONNECTOR)
– European models only
Use the 21-pin adaptor supplied with your
camcorder.
This adaptor is exclusive to an output.
If your TV has an S video jack
Pictures can be reproduced more faithfully by
using an S video cable (optional). With this
connection, you do not need to connect the
yellow (video) plug of the A/V connecting cable.
Connect the S video cable (optional) to the S
video jacks on both your camcorder and the TV.
This connection produces higher quality DV
format pictures.
