COPYING A VIDEO TAPE
You can make copies of video tapes made by friends or relatives for your enjoyment.
Warning: Unauthorized recordings of copyrighted video tapes may be an infringement of
copyright laws.
Connect the editing (recording) VCR, source (playing) VCR and your TV using the following
diagram.
NOTE:
You can use the audio and video input jacks on the front panel of the editing (recording) VCR
instead of using the jacks on the back.
Fig. 9:
1) Insert a pre-recorded video cassette into the source (playing) VCR.
2) Insert a blank video cassette, or one you want to record over, into the editing (recording)
VCR cassette compartment.
3) Press the TAPE SPEED button on the remote control on the editing (recording) VCR to
select the desired recording speed (SP/SLP) on the editing (recording) VCR.
4) Select the L1 or L2 position on the editing (recording) VCR. See page 13, under
"Connecting to input jacks".
5) Press the REC button on the editing (recording) VCR.
6) Begin playback of the tape in the source (playing) VCR.
• For best results during dubbing, use the VCR's front panel controls whenever possible. The
remote control might affect the playback VCR's operation.
• Always use video-quality shielded cables with RCA-type connectors. Standard audio cables
are not recommended.
• You can use a video disc player, satellite receiver, or other audio/video component with A/V
outputs in place of the playback VCR.
• If video or color fades in and out you may be copying a copy guarded video tape.
TO MONITOR THE RECORDING
1) • Turn on the TV and set the TV channel to 3 or 4. Now set the CH3/CH4 switch on the
back of the VCR to match the channel selected on the TV.
