Special Recording
onto VCR
(This connection
only allows you to record on the VCR whatever
is curremly
being displayed
on the TV screen.)
This is not a common
application
for recording
with your VCR, but you may find it useful in
certain
situations.
This connection
will let you
record onto the VCR whatever
is being displayed
on the TV screen such as a TV program.
You'll
also be able to record signals from another
VCR
(or similar device)
that is connected
to the TV's
INPUT
1 or 2 jacks.
The TV must remain turned on during recording.
If you change channels
on the TV, the channel
change will be recorded
on the VCR tape unless
you pause the VCR during recording.
Because
your TV is cable-compatible,
this
application
may be used to record cable-TV
programs
from the TV onto a VCR that is not cable-
compatible.
You may also want to use this connection
to dub or edit VCR
tapes with two or three VCRs.
By connecting
one VCR (or
camcorder)
to the INPUT
I jacks and another VCR (or
camcorder)
to the INPUT 2 jacks, you'll be able to selectively
edit and record
whatever
is playing on the TV screen on to a
third VCR (or camcorder)
connected
as shown here to the
SELECT
0 UT j ac ks.
If you connect
a surveillance
system to your monitor,
you'll be
able to record
what the camera
is displaying
on the TV screen
by connecting
a VCR (or camcorder)
to the SELECT
OUT jacks
as shown here.
