DIRECTV HD Receiver Rear Panel

1)OFF-AIR IN – Used to receive local, oﬀ-air digital broadcast channels.

2)SATELLITE IN – Use to connect the DIRECTV HD Receiver to the satellite dish antenna.

3)USB – For future services and accessories. Additional hardware may be required.

4)S-VIDEO OUT – Provides the best non-HD picture quality, better than VIDEO RCA-type jacks. If your TV has only RCA and S-Video jacks, use it along with the audio jacks (S-Video only carries picture information, not sound) to connect to your TV.

5)VIDEO OUT – Provides good, but non-HD, picture quality. You can connect the second RCA- type composite VIDEO jack to another device, such as a VCR. You must also connect the AUDIO

6cables when using the VIDEO connection.

The Rear Panel may look complicated, but you probably won’t use all the connections.
