If you find a video jack and only one audio jack, your TV is probably monaural. (If you are not sure, look at the back of your VCR-- you will see two sets of these jacks.) If you have no jacks like these on your TV, skip this step and proceed to Step 4. TV with Audio and Video Jacks If you do find all two jacks on your TV, you need to purchase a two-line audio/video cable with bell (RCA) connectors, like this: If you find a video jack and only one audio jack, your TV is probably monaural. You can purchase a two-line audio/video cable, but the three-line is handy in case you get a stereo TV later. Connect the yellow VIDEO OUT jack on the VCR to the VIDEO IN jack on the TV. This direct video input will give you the best picture. It will also let you play videos in a "picture in picture" feature, if your TV has it. Then connect the AUDIO OUT jack (white) on the VCR to the AUDIO IN jacks on the 14 Getting Started TV. If your TV has stereo AUDIO jacks, connect the AUDIO OUT jack on the VCR to the one labeled MONO on the TV. If one is not labeled MONO, you may need a Y-adapter to hear sound on both channels. This audio hookup will give you better sound than the RF signal hookup, because the electronic signal won't have to go through a conversion process. Capabilities: The audio and video signal connections are all you need to play back a prerecorded tape. If you do not intend to record on your VCR from your antenna/cable, then you're all hooked up now. Otherwise, continue with Step 4, which will let you record off TV channels. 4 Hook up the RF Signal Look at the back of your TV for a connector that looks like one of these, and follow the corresponding hookup option. If you have any sort of cable box, see the hookup options in Advanced Operations (page 53). Simple Antenna/Cable 75 Ohm Hookup This is an easy hookup that you can use if your cable or antenna has a 75 ohm round wire connector. You will need the 75 ohm cable supplied with your VCR. It looks like this: If you have been watching the TV in your home before getting the VCR, you will already have a round wire attached to your TV. Otherwise, look for a cable connection coming in through the wall from outside. (If you find this connection, remember to call your local cable company to start the service.) 1. If still hooked up to your TV, unscrew the round wire from the 75 ohm connector on your television. Otherwise, take the wire that comes in from the wall. 2. Screw this round wire into the IN FROM ANT jack on the back of your VCR. 3. Using the 75 ohm cable supplied with your VCR, slide on either end to the OUT TO TV jack on the back of the VCR. 4. Connect the other end of the same cable onto the 75 ohm antenna input on your TV 15 Getting Started (where you first disconnected the TV in step 1.) Capabilities: With this hookup, you should now be able to perform all the basic functions provided by this equipment. External or Internal 300 Ohm Antenna If you have either an external or internal (rabbit ears) antenna rather than cable, you may have 300 ohm connectors like these. In this case, you will need special adapters to make the 75 ohm round wire connection shown below. (You may already have one on your TV.) 1. Remove the antenna line from the back of your TV if it is already connected there, or take it from where it comes in on the wall. 2. Considering the three pictures below, determine which adapter you will need to hook it into your VCR. If you have Use this adapter Single 300 ohm flat wire 16 Getting Started Separate UHF and VHF antenna wires, both 300 ohm flat wire 300 ohm flat UHF and 75 ohm Separate UHF and VHF antenna wires, both 300 ohm flat wire 300 ohm flat UHF and 75 ohm round VHF If you have "rabbit ears" (an antenna on top of your TV), you will need an additional adapter and 75 ohm extension to make your leads reach from the antenna to the VCR. This connection will work only if you have a strong, clear picture on the TV, indicating a strong signal. Connect the antenna to the adapter, and use the cable extension to go from the adapter to the VCR. Use the supplied 75 ohm cable to connect the VCR to the TV. Now continue with the hookup: 1. Using whichever adapter you have fit your antenna with, attach that connector to the IN FROM ANT jack on the back of the VCR. 2. Using the 75 ohm cable supplied with your VCR, connect either end to the OUT TO TV jack on the back of the VCR. 3. Use a second adapter to attach the other end of the 75 ohm connector back into the TV (where you first disconnected the antenna). 17 Getting Started Capabilities: With this hookup, you should now be able to perform all basic functions provided by this equipment. 5 Attach the TV and VCR to the Power Supply Plug in the TV and VCR power cords to the wall outlet or an appropriate extension cord or surge protector. See Important Safeguards for further precautions (page 6). 6 Install Batteries in the Remote Control The remote control requires two fresh "AA" batteries. On the ba...
