CONNECTING A VCR TO THE TV SET This TV set has AUDIO/VIDEO input and output sockets on the back panel which allow direct connection to a VCR using the AV Button (13). The direct Video/Audio connection bypasses the antenna circuitry and allows for better quality recordings and easier operation, but like all high-technology it gets complicated. The sockets are grouped in two sets of two, OUT and IN. . OUT Sockets These sockets take the signal OUT of the TV set and feed it TN to the VCR. They are hardly ever used. Most VCR's have their own Tuner built in and do not need the TV set to tune the TV channel for them. The usual setup is to give the VCR the antenna, and feed the TV set out of the VCR's RF output. (This loops the antenna signal through and shares it). See your VCR manual. The exception to this is if you are dubbing one VCR off another. The connection for this is shown later. . IN Sockets These sockets take the signal OUT of the VCR and feed it IN to the TV set. The main confusion in connecting a VCR to a TV, is that both have a set of sockets, and what is OUT for one is IN for the other. The VCR OUT sockets go to the TV IN sockets. Think about it for a moment. . Antenna The VCR can be connected to the TV set through its antenna. For details of this, see the section "Tuning a VCR" earlier in this manual. 15
