Chapter 2: Connecting your Monitor
Connecting a VCR
You will need:
• coaxial cable
• standard A/V cables
– For better picture performance, if your VCR has S-video,
connect an S-video cable and standard (analog) audio
cables to the VIDEO-2 inputs on the side panel (instead of
the VIDEO-1 inputs). Do not connect both types of video
cable to VIDEO-2 at the same time or the picture
performance will be unacceptable.
– If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the monitor
to your VCR’s audio out terminal using the white audio
cable only.
To view the VCR:
Turn ON the VCR. Select the Video 1 video input source on
the monitor.*
*To select the video input source, press + on the remote control
(- page 25). To program the monitor’s remote control to operate
other devices, see “Using the remote control to operate your other
devices” on page 18.
