PIP CONNECTIONS AND OPERATION (SOME MODELS)
INTRODUCTION
Your TV must be connected to two separate sources in
order to view different pictures in the main picture and the
PiP (Picture-In-Picture) inset. One source must be con-
nected to the ANTENNA/CABLE jack. The other source
must be connected to the VIDEO 1 jacks.
The most common use of PIP is to view two different chan-
nels; one from the channel selector in the TV and the other
from the channel selector in the VCR. For example, you
can view two sporting events or two movies at the same time.
BASIC PICTURE-IN-PICTURE CONNECTIONS
Tiffs illustration shows the basic connection of your TV to a
stereo VCR. Using these connections, you can do the fol-
lowing:
• Simultaneously view video tape playback and a channel
selected using the TV's tuner.
• Simultaneously view two different channels; one selected
using the TV's tuner and another using the VCR's tuner.
• Swap the main picture and the PIP inset.
How to View Two Different Channels Simultaneously
In order to view two different channels simultaneously using
the basic connection you must do the following.
1. Select ANT/CABLE source for the main picture.
Select your viewing channel via the channel selector
in the TV.
2. Select VIDEO 1 source for the PIP inset. Select your
viewing channel via the channel selector in the VCR.
The VCR/TV switch on the VCR must be in the TV
position. NOTE: The VCR must not be in the
PLAYBACK mode.
3. Press SWAP to swap the main picture with the PIP
inset as desired.
NOTE: Detailed operation is given in the "Selecting Main
Picture and PIP Inset Sources" paragraph.
