•Connect an Audio/Video cable from the HD receiver’s AUDIO Right, Left, and VIDEO jacks to the AUDIO IN Right, Left, and VIDEO jacks on the back of the TV or monitor.

•Connect an S-Video cable from the HD receiver’s S-VIDEO jack to the TV’s S-VIDEO jack.

•Connect an Audio/Video cable from the HD receiver’s second set of AUDIO Right, and Left, and VIDEO jacks to the second set of AUDIO IN Right, Left, and VIDEO jacks on the VCR.

2.Connect coaxial cables.

•Connect a coaxial cable from the ANTENNA A (or B) jack on your HD receiver to one output of a splitter. Then use another coaxial cable to connect the input jack on the VCR, usually labeled IN FROM ANTENNA, to the other output of the splitter. Connect the input of the splitter to your cable outlet, cable box, or antenna using a third coaxial cable. If desired, connect another coaxial cable from the vacant ANTENNA jack on the HD receiver to another RF signal.

•Connect a coaxial cable from your HD receiver’s SATELLITE IN jack to the satellite dish antenna.
