Perfect Connections

This is an example of recommended connection if your TV has two 21-pin AV input (SCART) connectors.

Connect the decoder to the satellite receiver’s connector if you have a decoder, AV1 (L-1) IN/OUT connector to TV’s connector, and AV2 (L-2) IN/DECODER connector to the satellite receiver’s connector. Then connect the satellite receiver and TV.

NOTES:

Set “L-2 SELECT” to “A/V” ( pg. 51).

You can use Automatic Satellite Programme Recording function ( pg. 36) with this connection.

To record a programme via the satellite receiver, select L-2 mode by pressing AUX (number key 0”) and/or PR so that “L-2” appears on the front display panel.

To receive a scrambled broadcast, descramble the signal with the satellite receiver.

For details, refer to the instruction manual of the satellite receiver and decoder.
