Connecting a VCR and satellite receiver

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Connecting a VCR and satellite receiver

From antenna

You will need:

one signal splitter

four coaxial cables

one set of component video cables (if your satellite receiver does not have component video, connect the standard A/V cables only)

one pair of standard audio cables

three sets of standard A/V cables

¥For better picture performance, if your satellite receiver and VCR have S-video, connect S-video cables (plus the audio cables) instead of the standard video cables. Do not connect both types of video cable to VIDEO 1 at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

¥If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the TV (VIDEO 1) to your VCRÕs audio out terminal using the white audio cable only.
