VCR Video and Audio to a Cable Box

Figure 6
A two-way RF splitter, 4 coaxial cables, right and left audio
cables and an S-Video or Video cable are required. These are
not included with the TV.

1. Connect the incoming cable to IN on the RF splitter.

2. Connect one coaxial cable from OUT on the RF splitter

to ANTENNA IN on the cable box back panel.

3. Connect one coaxial cable from OUT on the RF splitter

to ANT-1 MAIN on the TV back panel.

4. Connect one coaxial cable from OUT on the cable box

to ANTENNA IN on the VCR back panel.

5. Connect one coaxial cable from ANTENNA OUT on the

VCR back panel to ANT-2 AUX on the TV back panel.

6. To use the TV speakers with the VCR, connect a set of

audio cables from AUDIO OUT on the VCR back panel

to INPUT-1 AUDIO-LEFT (MONO) and AUDIO-RIGHT

on the TV back panel. The red cable connects to the

R (right) channel and the white cable connects to the

L (left) channel. If your VCR is mono (non-stereo),

connect only the white (left) cable.

Figure 6. Connecting a VCR to a Cable Box

Note: NetCommand® will assume your VCR is connected to inputs as shown on this page. If you use any

other inputs for your VCR or add a second VCR, this change must match in the NetCommand system. See Edit

NetCommand... in Chapter 3 for more information.

Connecting VCR Video and Audio to a Cable Box

7. Connect either an S-Video or Video cable from VIDEO

OUT on the VCR back panel to INPUT 1 VIDEO on the

TV back panel. Only one type of video cable should

be connected. S-Video is recommended, if available.

8. For NetCommand® controlled recordings, connect a

set of audio cables from AUDIO IN on the VCR back

panel to RECORD OUTPUT AUDIO-LEFT (MONO) and

AUDIO-RIGHT on the TV back panel. The red cable

connects to the R (right) channel and the white cable

connects to the L (left) channel.

9. Complete the NetCommand controlled recordings

connections by connecting a Video cable from VIDEO

IN on the VCR back panel to RECORD OUTPUT

VIDEO on the TV back panel.

Note: With this connection configuration, it is

possible to view live cable programs through the

VCR. For best picture quality, however, always view

live cable programs directly from the cable box

instead of the VCR.
