Connecting a Cable Box to the Hard Disk Recorder
1. Connect the incoming television signal to the IN jack on your cable box.
2. Connect the RF cable from the OUT jack on your cable box to the ANT/CATV IN jack on the Hard Disk Recorder.
3. Attach the cable box controller. See “Satellite Receiver and Cable Box Controllers” on page 10.
4. Follow the B ~ E instructions on page 9 for A/V connection, telephone connection, AC power connection, and setup.

•Refer to your TV or cable box owner’s manual for more information on connecting to these components.

2. Connect an A/V cable from the OUTPUT jacks on the Hard Disk Recorder to the AUDIO/VIDEO IN jacks on your VCR, matching like colors.
3. Connect the RF cable from the OUT jack on your VCR to the VHF/UHF jack on your television.
4. Follow the C ~ E instructions on page 9 for telephone connection, AC power connection, and setup.
