Sony EV-C500E - Recording TV Programmes

Recording TV Programmes
Since the VCR itself does not have a built-in TV tuner, you cannot record TV
programmes if you have made a VCR-TV connection using 1A, 1B, 1C or 1D of
Audio/Video (A/V) Hookup on pages 7 and 8, or RFU DC OUT Hookup on page 9.
However, if your TV has line output jacks, you can record TV programmes. You will
need to make an additional connection shown below. If you have made a VCR-TV
connection using 1E of Audio/Video (A/V) Hookup on page 8, you can record TV
programmes without making an additional connection.
Note
When you use the LINE IN VIDEO
jack and the LINE IN S VIDEO
connector at the same time, the LINE
IN S VIDEO connector has priority,
and no signal will be input to the LINE
IN VIDEO jack. Therefore, if you do
not use the LINE IN S VIDEO
connector, be sure to disconnect the
S VIDEO cable.
