CONNECTING EXTERNAL VIDEO SOURCES 
 
 
 
 
The exact arrangement you use to connect the Video Cassette Recorder, Video Disc 
Player and Video Camera to your TV set is dependent on the model and features of 
each component. Check the Owner's Manual of each component for the location of its 
video and audio inputs and outputs. The following connection diagrams are offered as 
suggestions. However, you may need to modify them to accommodate your particular 
assortment of components and features. For best performance, video and audio cables 
should be made from coaxial shielded wire. 
Before Operating External Video Source 
The input mode is changed every time the AVX button is pressed as shown below. 
Connect External Video source to the INPUT terminal, then press AVX button as 
necessary to view the input source. 
 
NOTE: When the TV is set to "VIDEO" and a video signal is not received from VIDEO 
INPUT JACK on the back panel of the TV (i.e., VCR/Video Disc Player, etc. is not 
connected or the video input device is OFF), the screen will be blank gray or blue in color.
