AUDIO IN or to an external amplifier and speakers.
Set the OUTPUT monitor's input switch.
Important: If the television/monitor you are using has an input selection
switch, set it so it is displaying the correct input. For instance, if you have
connected to the monitor's VIDEO 1 input jack, you would choose VIDEO
1 as your input. Refer to the manual that came with your monitor for
details.
Set the Record VCR input.
Important: Set the VCR's controls so that it will record whatever comes
into its VIDEO IN jack, rather than recording
a broadcast channel. Different VCRs use dif-
ferent methods to do this. Your VCR's manual
should explain how, probably in a section that
discusses copying tapes from a camcorder.
Here are some common examples:
• Most VCRs have an input selector switch that goes between LINE (or AUX,
EXT, A/V, or S) and TUNER. The illustration shows some examples.
• Some use a button on the remote control or an on-screen menu to choose
an external line source.
• Others require that you choose a special channel (like 99 or A1).
• Still others switch automatically when you plug the cable into the VIDEO
IN jack.
Test the connections.
Turn the TitleMaker 2000, VCR, and television on and press DEMO. You

The CONTROL (GPI) input allows the unit to be triggered
by edit controllers equipped with GPI ("General Purpose
Interface"). It is described in Chapter 20, "Editing, Presenta-
tions, and Other Applications."
Optional: Connect the PREVIEW monitor.
Note: See Chapter 21 to determine whether you need a
PREVIEW monitor.
Important: Leave the PREVIEW OUT jack unconnected if
you are not using a PREVIEW monitor. Connecting anything, even an
unconnected plug, to this jack enables preview mode. In Preview mode, the
Editing Screen is not displayed on the OUTPUT monitor.
Connect the TitleMaker 2000's PREVIEW OUT to the VIDEO IN jack of the
PREVIEW monitor using a composite (RCA-style) cable. (If the monitor
