Hooking UpYourVCR
Connections to A/V Network
Some Mitsubishi TVs and VCRs have special input and output terminals called the A/V Network. This network “passes” remote control commands between Mitsubishi components. That is, when the A/V Network is con- nected, you can point your VCR remote control at the TV, and the TV will “pass” the commands onto the VCR.
1You will need a cable with a “mini” jack at both ends. A mini jack is the kind you find on headphones for personal stereos. This cable may be included with your Mitsubishi TV. If not, you can purchase a cable with mini jacks at your Mitsubishi dealer or electronics store.
2Connect ACTIVE A/V NETWORK OUT or A/V NETWORK OUT on the TV to ACTIVE A/V NETWORK IN on the VCR.
3If you have another Mitsubishi component with A/V Network, connect another mini jack cable to ACTIVE A/V NETWORK OUT on the VCR, and connect the other end to (ACTIVE) A/V NETWORK IN on the other component.
Connections to IR Emitter
Your VCR will be able to send remote control channel changing commands to your compatible cable box or satellite receiver. The VCR uses the IR Emitter to send these commands in the same way as when you use the hand held remote that came with the cable box or receiver.
1Connect the supplied IR Emitter to CONVERTER BOX CONTROL on back of the VCR.
2Run the wire under or along side the cable box or satellite receiver and place the end in front of the cable box and/or satellite receiver.

3Use the double stick tape to secure the end of the emitter in the proper place.
IMPORTANT
If you connect both a cable box and satellite receiver, place the IR Emitter to face the remote control window (sensor) in the front of both. If you cannot place it this way, you can purchase a dual IR Emitter from your Mitsubishi dealer.
