Very Good Connection

Using A/V jacks and cables to connect to the TV, RF coaxial cables to connect the VCR

This connection provides better picture quality than RF coaxial cables and is recommended for use with TVs that do not have S-Video input jacks.

What you will need (see page 6 for descriptions of these cables):

•Two (2) RF coaxial cables

•Three (3) Audio/Video cables

•One (1) telephone line cord

•Coaxial cable lines fed from a digital satellite antenna and a standard TV antenna (or cable line)

Making the Connection

1.Connect the satellite dish antenna feed (RG-6 coaxial cable) to the SATELLITE IN jack on the satellite receiver.

2.Connect one end of an RF coaxial cable to the OUT TO TV jack on the satellite receiver, and the other end to the antenna input jack on the VCR.

Note: If your VCR has A/V input jacks, you can use A/V cables to connect the satellite receiver’s second set of A/V output jacks to the A/V jacks of the VCR instead of using the RF coaxial cable.

3.Connect one end of an RF coaxial cable to the antenna output jack on the VCR, and the other end to the TV’s antenna input jack.

4.Connect the cable or off-air antenna feed (RF coaxial cable) to the IN FROM ANT jack on the satellite receiver.

5.Connect one end of the supplied telephone line cord to the PHONE JACK on the back of the satellite receiver, and the other end to an RJ11-type modular phone jack (the most common type of phone jack).

6.Connect the ends of the supplied A/V cables to the satellite receiver’s AUDIO and VIDEO jacks, and the other ends to the corresponding AUDIO and VIDEO input jacks on the TV.

Notes: Make sure you connect jacks and cables corresponding to their labels. For example, AUDIO R output on the digital satellite receiver should be connected to AUDIO R input on the TV, VIDEO output to VIDEO input, etc.

If your TV only has one audio input jack, use the satellite receiver’s AUDIO L jack to make the connection.
