The composite video connections should be made with high-
quality 75 screened cable. We do not recommend the use of
audio cables, which do not have adequate shielding or the
correct impedance, or cables intended for UHF applications, as
these do not provide adequate shielding in the 1-30MHz region.
In addition, the 501V Control Unit provides two FN-SELECT
function selection outputs, which can be used to provide
automatic switching of the monitor inputs. These provide
standard SCART signals; for more information please refer to
your dealer.
To connect to a tape recorder
Connect the analogue output from the tape recorder to the
Tape 1 input on the control unit (or another input if you prefer).
Connect the Tape Out from the control unit to the analogue
input on the tape recorder.
