To connect your camcorder to a TV that is already connected to a regular TV (VHF)
antenna, you need to:
1 Unplug the antenna cable from your TV first.
Plug in the tail end of the RFU adaptor marked OUT to the antenna input of your TV.
Re-wire the antenna cable you unplugged to the RFU adaptor jack marked ANT. This
way, you can switch between TV broadcasting and your home video playback without
re-wiring.
Connect the supplied RFU adaptor to the camcorder. Either RFU-90UC or RFU-95UC
is supplied.
Connect the AC power adaptor to a wall outlet.
Set the channel selector on the RFU adaptor (and your TV channel) to 3 CH or 4 CH of
the VHF channel, whichever is not active (vacant) in your area.
Attach the AC power adaptor to the camcorder.
Make sure the VTR (DC OUT)/CHARGE selector on the AC power adaptor is set to
VTR (DC OUT) position.
Note When you want to switch to a regular TV program, set the VTR (DC OUT)CHARGE selector to OFF
or turn off the power to the camcorder.
