Recording RGB Signals
Most Satellite Receivers are capable of outputting RGB signals for viewing on television through a Scart terminal (called “TV Scart” on a Sky 
Digital STB).
In the case of a Sky Digital STB, recording of RGB signals from the “TV Scart” terminals is possible, but the “Personal Planner” function for timer 
recording cannot be used in conjunction with the “External Link1” function of this DVD Recorder.
To record programmes by RGB signals:
• Make connections as shown.
• Set your Sky Digital STB to output “RGB” signals.
• Change the settings in the SETUP menu as follows (page 61 of Operating Instructions).
- “AV2 Input” set to “RGB”
- “AV2 Connection” set to “NORMAL”
- “AV1 Output” set to “RGB” or “S-Video” or “Video” to suit the AV terminal of your TV.
• Set up Personal Planner programmes as required.
• Follow the steps for setting up timer programming.
After setting Personal Planner programmes as required, Sky Digital STB must be left on (not set to 
standby) to ensure continuous output of RGB signals.
It is not possible to use the “External Link 1” function of the DVD Recorder for timer recording of RGB 
signals from the Sky Digital STB.
