Cable Channel Designations

Your Model 28 can receive up to 125 cable chan- nels, displayed as 1-125. Channels 2-13 are the same for VHF and cable TV, and cable compa- nies usually number them as they appear on the TV screen. For other channels, the cable ser- vice’s channel designations might not match the channel numbers that appear on the TV screen.

For more information, contact your cable com- pany. You still might have to experiment to de- termine the proper cable channel designations for your cable system.

Note: If you connect external devices to both sets of audio/video input jacks on your Model 28, the VIDEO INPUT and AUDIO INPUT jacks on the front of the Model 28 have priority.

To connect an audio/video device’s inputs to the Model 28, connect the AUDIO OUT and VIDEO OUT jacks on the back of the Model 28 to the corresponding audio and video input jacks on the audio/video device.

Note: To view the signals from the Model 28 on a TV/monitor, set the TV/monitor to its video mode.

CONNECTING AN EXTERNAL DEVICE

You can connect another audio/video device that has audio/video outputs, such as a VCR, camcorder, or satellite receiver, to the Model 28 so you can view the source’s output on the Mod- el 28. You can also connect a device that has audio/video inputs, such as a TV/monitor or VCR, to the Model 28 so you can view or record the Model 28’s output on the device.

Note: Always use video-quality shielded cables with phono connectors. Do not use standard au- dio patch cords.

CONNECTING POWER

Using the AC Power Cord

Warning: For your protection, the power cord has a polarized plug. To prevent blade expo- sure, be sure the blades fit fully and easily into the outlet. If you do not have a polarized outlet, have a qualified electrician install one before you use the Model 28.

Plug the supplied AC power cord’s smaller end into the Model 28’s AC 120V connector. Then plug the other end into a standard AC outlet.

To connect an audio/video device’s outputs to the Model 28, connect the device’s video and audio outputs to the corresponding VIDEO IN and AUDIO IN jacks on the back of the Model 28, or the VIDEO INPUT and AUDIO INPUT jacks on the front of the Model 28.
