TV + VCR + IP Decoder + Modem

1.Connect the VCR to the TV

A.Connect one end of the RF coaxial cable to the RF OUT jack on the back of the VCR and the other end to the TVÕs antenna in jack (sometimes labeled CABLE/ANTENNA).

OR –

B.Connect audio/video cables to the AUDIO OUT R and L jacks on the back of the VCR (color coded, red and white), and to the VIDEO OUT jack (yellow). Connect the other ends of the cables to the corresponding input jacks on the TV (sometimes labeled VIDEO, AUDIO L/MONO, and AUDIO R).

2.Connect the IP Decoder to the VCR

A.Connect audio/video cables to the AUDIO OUT R and L jacks on the back of the decoder (color coded, red and white), and to the VIDEO OUT jack (yellow). Connect the other ends of the cables to the corresponding input jacks on the VCR (sometimes labeled VIDEO, AUDIO L/MONO, and AUDIO R).

OR –

B.If your TV doesnÕt have audio/video input jacks, you need to use an RF modulator (not included). Connect the three-pronged end of the modulator cable into the AUDIO OUT L, RF MOD, and VIDEO jacks on the back of the decoder. Then use a coaxial cable to connect the Out to TV jack on the modulator to your TVÕs antenna in jack (sometimes labeled CABLE/ANTENNA).

Notes:

If your TV has an S-Video input, we recommend you make the video connection by using this jack instead. Remember to connect audio cables for this connection as S-Video only carries the picture signal, not the sound.

If you have any problems with the picture quality, you may want to connect the decoder directly to your TV. You won’t be able to record programming with this connection, however.

3.Connect the ethernet cable to the IP Decoder

Connect one end of the ethernet cable to the ETHERNET jack on the modem and the other end to the ETHERNET jack on the decoder.

4.Connect the DSL line to the DSL Modem

Connect the DSL line from the wall jack to the DSL LINE IN jack on your modem.

5.Plug the power supply into the IP Decoder power jack and into an AC outlet.
