Hooking UpYourVCR

Connections to Satellite Receiver

If you have an RCA DSS®, Sony DSS®,Toshiba DSS®, Panasonic DSS®, Hughes DSS®, PRIMESTAR®, or DISH Networksatellite system, you can connect the satellite receiver to your VCR and then set up the VCR to change the channels of the satellite receiver. This will allow you to program your VCR to make unattended recordings from several different satellite channels.

1Connect the red and white audio cable to AUDIO OUT R and AUDIO OUT L on the satellite receiver. Connect the other end to the AUDIO IN R and AUDIO IN L on the back of the VCR. Match the colors of the connectors to the cables.

2Connect the S-video cable to S-VIDEO OUTPUT on the satellite receiver. Connect the other end to the S-VIDEO IN on the back of the VCR.

If your satellite receiver does not have S-VIDEO OUTPUT, connect the video cable to VIDEO OUTPUT on the satellite receiver. Connect the other end to the VIDEO IN on the back of the VCR.

connecting both a satellite receiver and a cable box with audio video outputs

1Connect the satellite receiver to the audio video inputs on the back of the VCR as shown.

2Connect the cable box to the audio video inputs on the front of the VCR.

IMPORTANT

You cannot connect both a satellite receiver and a digital cable box.

You may need to purchase an audio cable and an S-video cable for this hookup.

If possible, you should have connected your VCR to your TV with an S-Video cable. It will allow you to watch the satellite video signal on your TV even when the VCR is off if you set the Rear S-through in the S-VHSSet-Up menu to ON.

If you connect your VCR to your TV with a standard video cable, you will have to turn the VCR on to watch the video signal from the satellite receiver. You will be able to hear the audio signal from your satellite receiver both when the VCR is on and off.

When you connect a satellite receiver to the S-video input on the back of the VCR, you have to set the Rear S-input in the S-VHSSet-Up menu to ON.

Refer to your Satellite Receiver Owner’s Guide for Satellite dish to Satellite receiver connections, as well as other possible video connections to your TV.
