OFF-AIR ANTENNA

How to Connect: TV + Satellite Receiver + VCR

1.Connect your cable and/or off-air antenna.

If you have cable and an off-air antenna, connect the cable signal to CABLE INPUT. Connect the off-air antenna to

ANTENNA INPUT.

2.Connect your VCR to your TV.

A.Connect the VCR’s audio/video outputs to INPUT 2 (R and L-Audio, and V-Video) on the TV using composite audio/ video cables.

B.Connect the VCR’s audio/video inputs to AUDIO/VIDEO OUTPUT jacks on the TV. This enables recording of digital and analog programs (except copy protected or component video formats).

3.Connect your Satellite Receiver to your TV.

Connect the satellite receiver’s audio/video output jacks to the INPUT 3 R and L Audio and S-VIDEO jacks on the TV using audio cables and an S-Video cable. If your satellite receiver doesn’t have an S-Video output, you can make the video connection by using the V (Video) jack instead. If your satellite receiver has component outputs, then use INPUT 2 or 4.

Note: If you are using an S-Video cable or component video cables, you must also use audio cables. The S-Video cable and component video cables only transfer video information.

Viewing the Components

1.Turn on the TV and the component(s) you want to view.

2.Press the TV button on the remote control.

3.Press the INPUT button on the remote control to scroll through the Video Input Channels.

•View the VCR on the INPUT 2 channel.

•View the satellite receiver on the INPUT 3 channel.

Note: You can set up the TV to automatically tune to the correct Video Input Channel. This is called Auto Tuning. (See Chapter 3 for more information.)
