WATCHING BROADCAST
TV
To watch broadcast TV on a standard TV
connected to the VCP, simply press
POWER
to turn off the VCP, then tune to
the desired station on the TV.
COPYING A VIDEO TAPE
If you connected a VCR to the VCP, you
can use your VCP to play back a video
cassette tape while the VCR records it.
Follow these steps to copy a video cas-
sette tape.
1. Load a pre-recorded tape into the
VCP.
2. Load a blank video cassette, or one
you want to record over, into the
VCR.
3. If the VCR has an input select
switch, set it to the video setting.
Note
: If the VCR does not have an
input select switch and you later
want to record VHF/UHF/cable
channels on the VCR, you might
need to disconnect the VCP from
the VCR’s audio/video input jacks.
4. Select the desired recording speed
on the VCR.
5. Begin recording on the VCR.
6. Press
PLAY(X2)
on the VCP to begin
tape playback.
7. To watch the tape while you copy it,
turn on the TV/monitor. If you are
using a standard TV, tune it to the
same channel (3 or 4) to which you
set the VCP’s
CHANNEL
switch. If
you are using a TV monitor, switch it
to the video setting.
