Connections

Tips:

•Depending on your TV and other equipment you wish to connect, there are various ways you could connect the Home Theater System. Use only one of the connections described below.

•Please refer to the manuals of your TV, VCR, Stereo System or other devices as necessary to make the best connections.

Caution:

•Make sure the Home Theater System is connected directly to the TV. Tune the TV to the correct video input channel.

•Do not connect the Home Theater System’s AUDIO OUT jack to the phono in jack (record deck) of your audio system.

•Do not connect your Home Theater Systemr via your VCR. The DVD image could be distorted by the copy protection system.

Connecting Antenna/Cable TV to Home Theater System

1.Disconnect the antenna leads from the rear of the TV.

2.Identify the type of cable from your antenna. If it is a round cable as illustrated, it is a 75 ohm coaxial antenna cable. This cable will connect directly to the jack marked ANT.IN on your Recorder Combi Receiver.

Tips:

If your antenna lead wire is a flat type antenna cable, connect it to an Antenna Adapter (300-ohm to 75- ohm) (not supplied) and slip the Adapter onto the jack. The Adapter does not screw on to the Recorder Combi Receiver, it just slips over the jack.

Cable Service Without Cable Box

If your cable wire is connected to your TV without a converter or descrambler box, unscrew the wire from your TV and attach it to the ANT.IN jack on the Combi Receiver. Use the supplied round coaxial cable to connect between the Combi Receiver’s RF.OUT jack and the 75 ohm antenna input jack on the TV. With this connection, you can receive all midband, super band, and hyperband channels. (All cable channels.)

Cable Service With Cable Box

If a converter is required in your cable system, follow the instruction below:

The cable hookup permits both TV and Combi Receiver operation.

To view or record a CATV channel

1.Tune the TV to the correct video input channel.

2.Set the Home Theater System channel selector to the output channel of the Cable Converter box using TRK/PRESET(-/+) (v / V) or number (0-9) of your Combi Receiver. (Example: CH3)

3.Select the channel to view at the Cable Converter Box.

Note:

If you are using a cable box to tune channels, it is not necessary to do Auto Channel Set as indicated on page 22.
