CABLE & VCR CONNECTIONS

1)If you have an antenna, or a cable TV system that does not require you to use a cable box to tune the channels, use Diagram #1.
2)If you have a cable system that requires you to use a cable box to access all channels, use Diagram #2.
3)If you have a cable system that requires you to use a cable box to access certain premium channels, but not regular basic channels, use Diagram # 3.
For information on working Picture in Picture (PIP), please see the PIP section on page 28.
