Notes:
• The TX-NR901 must be turned On for recording.
Recording is not possible while it's in Standby mode.
• If you want to record directly from your TV or play-
back VCR to your recording VCR without going
through the TX-NR901, connect your TV/VCR's
audio and video outputs directly to your recording
VCR's AV inputs. See the manuals supplied with your
TV and VCR for details.
• Video signals connected to composite video inputs
can only be recorded via composite video outputs. If
your TV and video playback components are con-
nected via composite video, you must connect your
recording VCR via composite video as well. Similarly,
video signals connected to S-Video inputs can only be
recorded via S-Video outputs. If your TV and video
playback components are connected via S-Video, you
must connect your recording VCR via S-Video as
well.
