2. Tune the TV to the VCR viewing channel (either 3, 4, or

recording VCR.
7. Press the PAUSE buttons on both VCRs at the same time
to begin copying the tape.

VCR by using FWD, REV, and PLAY, and then press

Two VCR Connection
Note that the two VCRs used in the diagram may not look exactly
like the VCRs you are connecting. The important thing is to match
the proper cable connections. Use the OUT jacks of the playback
VCR to connect to IN jacks of the recording VCR. R output jacks
connect to R INPUT jacks, L output to L input, and VIDEO out
connects to VIDEO in.
