MOD-42 Cable Ready Stereo VCR
(160-0612)                 Dubbing                    Faxback Doc. # 41006

The process of recording from one VCR to another is called "dubbing".

You can use VHF signals to make such recordings, but separate audio/video
signals are preferred.

Always use video-quality shielded cables with RCA-type connectors, such as
Cat. No. 15-1537.  Do not use standard Hi-Fi patch cords.

You can use a video disc player, satellite receiver, or other unit with A/V
outputs in place of the playback VCR.

Connections

Connect the video and audio outputs of the playback VCR to the corresponding
VIDEO and AUDIO IN jacks of the Model 42.

Playback VCR Set-Up

Insert a pre-recorded video cassette into the playback VCR.

Model 42 Set-Up

1.  Insert a blank video cassette, or one you want to record over, into the
    cassette compartment.

2.  Press INPUT SELECT so that AUX is displayed.

3.  Set the REC SPEED switch to the desired position - EP, LP, or SP.

Recording

1.  Press the Model 42 RECORD button.

2.  Begin playback of the tape in the playback VCR.

To monitor the recording:

1.  Turn on the TV connected to the Model 42, and set it to the same channel
    as the Model 42 CHANNEL switch.

2.  Press the Model 42 TV/VCR button so that VCR appears on the display.

3.  If you are recording in stereo signals, be sure the L/L + R/R switch is

Recording Simul-Casts

In simul-casts, the stereo sound for a TV program is broadcast on the radio
at the same time as the TV program is shown.  Some cable companies use the
same procedure, except that the radio signal is carried by the cable wire.

In either case, use the following steps to record the program with stereo
sound.

1.  Connect the tape-out jacks of your stereo receiver to the AUDIO IN
    jacks of the VCR.

2.  Turn on the VCR and stereo receiver.  Tune the radio to the desired
    station.

3.  Insert a blank tape, or one you want to record over, into the cassette
    compartment.

4.  Press INPUT SELECT so that SIMUL appears on the display.

5.  Use the CHANNEL buttons (< >) to select the desired channel.

6.  Press RECORD.
