Connecting to Audio/Video equipment
7. Connecting a DVD recorder or other digital video recording
device (VIDEO 2)
Using RCA video cables, connect the video output jack (composite)
of the device to the VIDEO 2 VIDEO IN jack of the DTR-8.3 and
connect the video input jack of the device to the VIDEO 2 VIDEO
OUT jack of the DTR-8.3. Or if the device has S video input and
output jacks, connect them to the VIDEO 2 S VIDEO IN and OUT
jacks of the DTR-8.3 using S video cables. Or if the device has
component video outputs, connect them to one of the banks of
COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT jacks on the DTR-8.3.
With the initial settings of the DTR-8.3, the VIDEO 2 input
source is set for the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT 2 jacks.
If you connect the device to the COMPONENT VIDEO INPUT 1
jacks, this must be changed at Setup Menu → Input Setup → Video
Setup → Component Video (see page 51).
Using RCA audio cables, connect the audio output jacks of the
device to the VIDEO 2 AUDIO IN jacks of the DTR-8.3 and connect
the audio input jacks of the device to the VIDEO 2 AUDIO OUT
jacks of the DTR-8.3. Make sure that you properly connect the left
channels to the L jacks and the right channels to the R jacks.
If the device has a digital output, connect it to either the DIGITAL
INPUT COAX jack or DIGITAL INPUT OPT jack of the DTR-8.3
depending on the type of connector on the device.
With the initial settings of the DTR-8.3, the VIDEO 2 input
source is set for digital input at the COAX 3 jack.
If the digital connection is made at a different jack, this must be
changed at Setup Menu → Input Setup → Digital Setup (see page
49).
If the device has a digital input, connect it to the DIGITAL OUTPUT
OPT jack of the DTR-8.3 for digital recording of the REC OUT
signal from the DTR-8.3.
