Connecting An Optional Preview Monitor - Dazzle DCS 200 User Manual

IMPORTANT: Make sure that your camcorder, VCR, or TV is set up properly to receive
a video signal. It may be necessary to set your camcorder to VTR mode, while a VCR
or TV may need to be set to "Line In," "L1," "L2," "Aux" or a similar channel.
Remember that you need to use a Y-adapter if your device only supports mono input.
Check your camcorder, VCR, or TV documentation for specific details.

Connecting an Optional Preview Monitor

If the connectors on your camcorder or VCR and your monitor are compatible, you can
connect a preview monitor as follows:
1. Obtain an additional RCA (composite) video cable or S-Video cable (depending on your
configuration) and an additional RCA audio cable (these extra cables were probably
included with your camcorder and/or VCR).
2. Take either the RCA video cable (yellow) or S-Video cable (black) and connect it from
the Video Out connector on the camcorder or VCR to the corresponding Video In
connector on the TV monitor.
3. Connect the RCA audio cable (red and white) from the Audio Out connectors on the
back of the camcorder or VCR to the Audio In connectors on the TV monitor.
Note: Your additional audio cable may have separate connectors for left and right, or
the connectors might be joined as shown in the illustration below. Remember that you
need to use a Y-adapter if your TV monitor only supports mono input.
If your TV monitor does not support the types of cables described above, you still may
be able to connect it using a coaxial cable. Many VCRs and most TVs have this type of
connector, and many VCRs come with a coaxial cable.
Connecting the TV monitor to the camcorder or VCR results in the configuration shown
below.
IMPORTANT: Make sure that your camcorder or VCR and TV monitor are set up
properly to receive a video signal. It may be necessary to set a camcorder to VTR
mode, while a VCR or TV monitor might need to be set to "Line In," "L1," "L2," "Aux"
or a similar channel. Or, if the TV monitor is connected to a VCR with a coaxial cable,
you may need to set the monitor to channel 3 or 4. Check each device's
documentation for specific details.
