How to Connect: TV + Satellite Receiver + VCR

1.Connect your VCR to your TV.

A.Connect a coaxial cable to the VCR’s antenna output and to the ANTENNA/CABLE INPUT jack on the TV.

B.Connect the VCR’s audio/video output jacks to the INPUT1 AUDIO (R and L) and VIDEO jacks on the TV using audio/video cables.

2.Make sure cable or antenna is connected to your VCR.

A.Connect the coaxial cable carrying your television signal (off air or cable) to the antenna input on the VCR.

3.Connect your Satellite Receiver to your TV.

A.Connect the satellite receiver’s audio/video output jacks to the INPUT2 AUDIO (R and L) and VIDEO jacks on the TV using audio/video cables. If your satellite receiver has an S-Video output, you can make the video connection by using the S-Video jacks instead.

Note: If you are using an S-Video cable, you must also use audio cables. The S-Video cable only transfers video information.

Viewing the Components

1.Turn on the TV and the component(s) you want to view.

2.Press the TV button on the remote control.

3.Press the INPUT button on the remote control to scroll through the video inputs.

The VCR can be viewed on the VID1 input channel.

The satellite receiver can be viewed on the VID2 input channel.

Note: You can set up the TV to automatically tune to the correct input channel. This is called Autotuning. (See Chapter 3 for more information.)
