Cable Box and VCR/DVR

If you have a set-top cable box (STB), and you have a VCR or personal DVR, you can connect them as shown in the following illustration.

NOTE:

•If your devices have different connectors from those shown, use the highest quality video connections available. Observe the color coding on connectors.

•For digital cable, your set-top cable box might require a special two-direction splitter. Contact your cable provider for information. Or you can omit the splitter and omit the connection to the TV cable input.

•If all channels are scrambled, connect the incoming cable directly to the cable box (omit the splitter and omit the connection to the TV cable input).

•You can eliminate the cable box if your cable provider can install a CableCARD in the TV. See “Installing a CableCARD” on page 30.
