Connecting the antenna cables

These connections enable you to watch and record TV programmes using this recorder. If the antenna signal is connected via a Cable Box or Satellite Receiver, ensure that these devices are turned on in order to watch or record the cable programmes.

If you want to connect to a VCR and/or a separate Cable Box/ Satellite Receiver,

see ‘Step 2: Optional Connections’ for details.

Helpful Hint:

Depending on how you have currently connected your TV channel (directly from an off-air antenna or cable box or VCR), you’ll have to disconnect some of the cables before you make the antenna connection.

A Connect the existing Antenna cable (it can be from the off-air wall socket or Cable Box) to the ANTENNA-IN socket on the recorder.

B Connect a RF antenna cable (supplied) from the TV-OUT socket on the recorder to the antenna input socket on your TV (usually labelled as ANT,

ANTENNA IN, RF IN).
