After you plug the mains power cord into a mains outlet, the
Country Set display appears on the TV screen and/or on the
recorder's front display panel when the button on the
recorder/remote control is pressed for the first time to power
on the recorder; go to page 6 to perform Auto Set Up.
Make AV connection if your TV has a 21-pin AV input
connector (SCART) in order to reduce the possibility of
interference. And if you are using a stereo TV, you will need
this cable in order to enjoy stereo playback of videotapes.
AV1 INPUT/OUTPUT SIGNAL SELECTION FOR AV CONNECTION
The AV1 IN/OUT connector accepts 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). For input signal selection, select "VIDEO" (regular video signal) or
"S-VIDEO" (Y/C signal) for "AV1 SELECT" setting (੬ pg. 44). For output signal selection, use AV1 OUT switch of the rear panel.
● If your TV's 21-pin AV input connector (SCART) is compatible only with the regular video signal, set this switch to COMP.
● If your TV's 21-pin AV input connector (SCART) is compatible with the Y/C signal, set this switch to Y/C. 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.)
NOTES:
●
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.
●
To obtain high-quality S-VHS pictures, you can also use the S-VIDEO CONNECTION described on page 5.
