Mini-Rec, the 7” HDMI Recorder/Monitor Manual
First Connection
To use the product, first connect the input device such as camera or PC to the Mini-Rec input.
If you want to monitor the recording screen on a large monitor, simply connect an extra
monitor to the Mini-Rec UT jack.
To connect with PC, make sure that you select 1920x1080 or 1280x720 resolution and
‘Duplicate these displays’ on Screen Resolution section in the control panel. You can also select
‘Extended display’ but we recommend ‘Duplicate these displays’.
Note on PC screen recording
If you connect to a PC, you will not be able to listen the PC audio on itself, as Mini-Rec takes it
to record audio. (Most PC has only one Audio output)
However, you can connect a headphone or a speaker to the Line ut jack on Mini-Rec to hear
the audio. The speaker should have an amplifier(a powered volume control) to hear the
sound.

Note: The picture on the screen may have a little delay against the line-out sound, but actual
recording in the USB memory will have no delay.
