nections with any of the components left turned

About the S-video socket
S-video sockets are used to separately pass
the chroma (colour) and luminance (bright-
ness) components of video signals. They serve
to improve the picture quality in both recording
and playback.
• If your TV or VCR has an S-video input socket,
you can connect it to the S-VIDEO socket on the
VIEWCAM with the supplied S-video cable.

3 Turn on the TV and set it to the “AV” or
“VIDEO” channel. (See the operation
manual of your TV.)
• When connecting to a TV via a VCR, turn on
the VCR and set it to the “AV” or “LINE” in-
put channel. Operate the TV as you normal-
ly do to see the signal from the VCR. (See
the operation manuals of your TV and VCR.)
4 Set the Power switch on the VIEWCAM to
VCR, and begin tape playback (see page
20).
Notes:
• If your TV or VCR has a 21-pin Euro-SCART

• If your TV or VCR has only one audio input jack, use
the white plug for the audio connection on the TV or
VCR.
• When the VIEWCAM is connected to a TV for play-
back, the picture on the TV screen may flicker if the
volume on the VIEWCAM is set to maximum. Should
this occur, turn the volume down (see page 20).
