Connecting to a Cable Box or Satellite Receiver

Option 1

If your Cable Box/Satellite Receiver has only an antenna output socket (RF OUT or TO TV),

refer to “Connecting the antenna cables” on page 15 for the complete connection to your TV.

Option 2 (as shown on the above illustration)

If your Cable Box/Satellite Receiver has a Scart output socket

A Keep the existing antenna connection from the Cable Box/Satellite Receiver to your TV.

B Use the scart cable to connect the EXT1 TO TV-I/Osocket on the recorder to the corresponding SCART input socket on the TV.

C Use another scart cable to connect the EXT2 AUX-I/Osocket on the recorder to the Scart output socket (or labelled as TV OUT or TO TV) on the Cable Box/ Satellite Receiver.

D Connect the supplied G-LINK cable to the G-LINKsocket on the recorder.

E Place the other end of the G-LINK transmitter in front of the Cable Box/ Satellite Receiver near to the IR sensor (remote sensor) so that its infrared detector can receive a clear signal.

This will enable the recorder to receive data from the GUIDE Plus+ system and control the tuner of the external receiver.

Helpful Hint:

If your TV is connected to the recorder via the COMPONENT VIDEO (Y Pr Pb) sockets, then connect the external cable box/satellite receiver to the EXT1 TO TV-I/O socket.

TIPS: Refer to your optional connected devices’ user manual for others possible connections.
