TV’s aerial connector.
AV Connection

Connect an optional 21-pin SCART cable between the
L-1 IN/OUT connector on the rear panel of the
recorder and the TV’s 21-pin SCART connector.
D
Connect the recorder to mains.
Plug the end of the mains power cord into a mains outlet.
Make AV connection if your TV has a 21-pin AV input
connector (SCART) in order to reduce the possibility of
interference. With AV connection, you can enjoy
stereo playback of video tapes if you are using a stereo
TV.
NOTES:
●
The L-1 IN/OUT connector accepts only a composite
signal (regular video signal) and delivers either a composite
signal (regular video signal) or a Y/C signal (a signal in
which the luminance and chrominance signals are
separated). If your TV’s 21-pin AV input connector (SCART)
is compatible with the Y/C signal, set “L-1 OUTPUT” to
“S-VIDEO” after the connection and the initial settings are
completed (
੬
pg. 30). You can obtain high-quality S-VHS
pictures. (For connection, be sure to use a 21-pin SCART
cable that is compatible with the Y/C signal.)
●
Set your TV to the VIDEO (or AV), Y/C, or RGB mode
according to the type of your TV’s SCART connector.
●
For switching the TV’s mode, refer to the instruction
manual of your television.
