connecting vcr to television

[kendra20]

Hi can any one help I have been given a panasonic vcr nv-730 to play my old video tapes on, however i cant connect it to telly. this vcr dosnt have a scart connection like ther vcrs ive had only jack plug like sockets on the back saying In and Out. I have tried connecting it with a cable with the plugs for these but cant get a picture the tape is turning and all buttons seem to be working. what am i doing wrong??? any help would be very welcome.

2 thing spring to mind.
1 - How many plugs have to connected? There should be 2 sound (L&R) and 1 with the video signal.
2 - Have you selected the channel on the TV the VCR is connected to, if so have you tuned this channel to pick up the signal from the VCR?
Also have you tried another tape?

Have found this link with a photo of the terminals and spec.
This VCR appears to be MONO so only one audio output and a BNC connection

thank you so much for the manual. but what is a BNC CONNECTION sorry im a real thicko when it comes to techy things.

This is a BNC connector... and it's highly unlikely you have them on a VCR

More likely you have phono connectors, which look like this

If you have the above red, white and yellow connectors then you just need something like this

And then you can connect the VCR to the scart on the TV.
