B An OUTPUT monitor. The monitor will be connected to a recording VCR
in most cases. Required connections depend on the VCR. You can use any
arrangement that will allow you to view tapes played on the VCR.
C A Record VCR. In a live setup, in which the results will be displayed
without being recorded, the VCR is optional, but most setups will include
the VCR.
D PREVIEW monitor (optional). If used, this monitor must have a compos-
ite (RCA-style) video input. Use of the PREVIEW monitor is described in
Chapter 21, "Preview."
• Video Cables. You will need one video cable to connect the output to the
Record VCR and one to connect the Record VCR to the OUTPUT monitor.
You may also need a cable for the input, if a video source is used; and for
the PREVIEW monitor, if used. The next section describes the types of
cables.

commonly available to connect SCART-equipped units to the RCA jacks
provided on the TitleMaker.
Audio
RF cables carry the audio signal along with the video. All the others
require a separate RCA-style audio cable.
