3. SETUP AND CONNECTIONS

3-3. General Recommendations

CAUTION: Make all connections before plugging the power supply cord into a standard 120V, 60Hz AC power outlet.

You can connect the HD satellite receiver in a variety of configurations. The answers to the following questions will determine the correct setup for you.

-What type of antennas do you have? Satellite dish, cable, and/or over-the-air antennas.

-What type of connectors does your TV or VCR have: S-VIDEO, A/V (RCA_type), or RF coaxial?

-Do you want to use your HD satellite receiver with your audio or video systems?

-Do you have an audio or audio/video system? Consider integrating the HD satellite receiver into a home theater configuration to take advantage of the audio capabilities of your Dolby Digital System (Digital) or Hi-Fi System (Analog).

-Does your TV have an S-VIDEO jack? Use it to connect your TV to the HD satellite receiver. An S-VIDEO connection provides a better picture than RCA_type video or RF connections.

-Does your TV have RCA type A/V connectors, but no S-video jack? Use your TV’s A/V connectors

to connect your components. An A/V connection provides better picture and audio when compared to an RF connection.

Although there are numerous connections possible for optimum video and audio performance, try to fol- low the guidelines listed below when you hook up your components. Detailed hook-up instructions are provided on the following pages.
