Connecting Satellite TV (SAT) Components

Hook up the video signal with either component video, S video, or composite video cords (see p.18).

For the audio signal, in order to use digital soundtracks broadcast you must hook up a digital input. Use either a coaxial or optical cable, it doesn't matter which (see p.24-25). We recommend hooking up your audio with analog cables as well (see below).

Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from the AC outlet.

*The arrows indicate the direction of the TV signal.
