3.Connect another RF cable between the other OUT terminal on the splitter and the A-IN terminal on an A/B switch (available at your local electronics store.)

4.Connect a third RF cable between the OUT terminal on the cable box and the B-IN terminal on the A/B switch.

5.Connect an RF cable between the OUT terminal on the A/B switch and the ANT. IN jack on your DVD+VCR.

When the A/B switch is set to B, use the cable box control to change channels. When the A/B switch is set to A, use the DVD+VCR remote to change channels.

How to watch regular TV and record Cable TV

1 Set the Channel Select switch of the cable Box to CH 3. If Channel 3 is used by a TV station, you must change it to Channel 4. See "To Set Output Channel" on page 23.

2 Select the channel to be recorded on the Cable Box. If you want to watch the show that is recording, press [TV/INPUT] button on your TV to select “Out (VCR)”.

3 Press the [REC] button on the DVD+VCR.

4 To watch regular TV while you record from cable, select the desired channel on your TV. Because of the nature of cable boxes, you cannot watch one Cable TV channel and record another at the same time.
