Audio/Video Input and Output Connection
Connecting the Device
This connection allows you to connect a device such as a VCR that has
audio/video inputs and outputs. Connecting to the TV’s output allows
you to record programs.
Using the example of a VCR:
1. Connect your cable or off-air antenna to the TV’s ANT input
on the right back panel.
2. Connect composite audio/video cables to the TV’s input.
Connect composite audio/video cables to the TV’s Input 3 jacks (L
and R AUDIO3, and VID3) and to the VCR’s audio/video outputs.
3. Connect composite audio/video cables to the TV’s output.
Connect composite audio/video cables to the TV’s Audio/Video
Output jacks (L and R AUDIO, and VID OUT) and to the VCR’s
audio/video input.
Viewing the Picture from the Connected Device
