Do not plug the DCT6200/DCT6208 power cord into a wall outlet until you have completed all connections between the DCT and other components.

This diagram shows the High-Definition video connection between your Motorola DCT6200/DCT6208 and your High-Definition television (HDTV). This is the primary diagram for providing HD video and should be done prior to the following audio configurations.

Connector cables to be used:

6 ft coaxial cable

Three-pronged component video cable

1.Using a coaxial cable, connect cable wall outlet to the CABLE IN coaxial input on the cable box.

2.Locate the Y Pb Pr inputs on your HDTV and the Y Pb Pr outputs on the cable box. To make identification easy, these connecters are color-coded on the cable box (Y = green, Pb = blue, and Pr = red). Colors may vary on your HDTV.

3.Using a three-jack component video connector, connect the Y output on the cable box to the Y input on your HDTV. Do the same for the Pb and Pr connections.
