These connections enable you to watch
and record TV programs using this
recorder. If the antenna signal is
connected via a VCR, Cable Box or
Satellite Receiver, ensure that these
devices are turned on in order to watch
or record the cable programs.
If your TV is equipped with an
Antenna In (RF IN) jack only,
see “Optional connections - TV has only
an antenna input jack” for the complete
connection to your TV.
If you want to connect to a VCR
and/or Cable Box/Satellite Receiver,
see the related topics below “Optional
connections” for the complete
connection to your TV.
A
Connect the existing Antenna/Cable TV
signal (or from the Cable Box/Satellite
Receiver {RF OUT or TO TV}) to the
ANTENNA (IN) jack on the recorder.
B
Use the RF coaxial cable to connect the
TV (OUT) jack on the recorder to the
antenna input jack on your TV (VHF/UHF
RF IN.)
Helpful Hint:
– Depending on how you have currently
connected your TV channel (directly from an
off-air antenna or Cable box or VCR), you
will have to disconnect some of the cables
before you make the above connection.
TIPS: Before making or changing any connections, make sure that all the devices are disconnected
from the power outlet.
