Open and Unpack Box

Your EyeTV 200 box should contain the following items:

•EyeTV 200 hardware

•EyeTV software and PDF product manual on CD-ROM

•FireWire cable

•Remote control

•2 AAA batteries

Attach EyeTV 200 to a Video Source Your EyeTV 200 can be attached to many different video sources. Choose from one of the following:

1. EyeTV 200 can pick up broadcasts via an antenna:

•Run a coaxial cable from your antenna to the ANT.IN port on the EyeTV 200.

2.EyeTV 200 can be directly connected to a cable line, to receive basic (unscrambled/ non-encrypted analog) cable:

•Run a coaxial cable from your cable TV port to the ANT.IN port on the EyeTV 200.

3.EyeTV 200 can be connected to a cable box or satellite receiver in two ways:

•If your cable box/satellite receiver has audio and video output connectors, attach a stereo audio cable (usually colored red & white) from your equipment's audio outputs to the audio inputs on the EyeTV 200 (labeled L AUDIO R). Connect a yellow composite video cable between the cable box/satellite receiver's video output and the video input on the EyeTV

200.For improved picture quality, use an

S-Video cable instead of the composite cable.

•If your cable box/satellite receiver has a RF output, connect a coaxial cable from the cable box/satellite receiver's output to the ANT.IN port on the EyeTV 200. EyeTV will pick up the signal, usually on channel 3 or 4.
