When connecting other equipment please refer to their manuals for further information. This video manual
recommends the set up as shown on page 12. If the other equipment is turned off when connected by this
method, the video behaves as normal, but if the equipment is turned on the video will automatically switch over
to AV2 mode and displays the channel of the other equipment, channel selection can only be performed by the
other equipment, the video PR+/PR- buttons have no effect.
To return to normal video use the other equipment must be turned off.
Recording from other Equipment.
Simple recording can be performed, ensure the equipment is turned on and is displaying the correct channel.
Timer recording, set the video to perform a timed recording ensuring AV2 is selected as the channel to be
recorded. Some equipment may have a timer which allows it to be powered on to the correct channel, if this
feature is not available the other equipment should be left powered on.
Front AV
Because the video has front input sockets, it is possible to connect devices
such as a camcorder to the video. To watch a camcorder tape the player must
be in AVF mode. Recordings of this input are the same as described on page
14.
