connection between the TV set and the video recorder.
In order to play the cassette (i.e. to produce the image on the
screen) a programme number for the video recorder must be
stored In the TV set. This works in the same way as storing a TV
channel.

number '2', ITV on number '3' and so on.

select this number.

the video recorder playback, you could, for example, choose
programme number '8'.

same way as tuning in to a radio station. The video recorder
transmits 'its programme' on the UHF channel 37.
Your TV set must be adjusted to receive this channel.
