3 Connect the VCR’s A/V OUT jacks to one set of the A/V receiver’s A/V IN jacks.

4 Connect the A/V receiver’s MONITOR OUT jack to the TV’s VIDEO IN jack.

5 Connect one end of the telephone line cord to the DSS receiver’s TEL LINE jack. Connect the other end to your home’s modular telephone outlet.

6 Connect one end of the AC power cord to the DSS receiver’s AC IN jack. Connect the plug end to an AC outlet.

Optional Connections

YIf you have a cable input, cable box, or a terrestrial TV antenna, connect it the VCR’s VHF/UHF IN jack.

YBest Connection: If your TV has an S-VIDEO jack, use an S-VIDEO cable to connect the DSS receiver’s S-VIDEO jack to the TV’s S-VIDEO IN jack. This provides the best picture quality. Then use audio cables to connect one set of the DSS receiver’s audio jacks to the A/V receiver’s AUDIO IN jacks.

Note

In this configuration, the A/V receiver must be turned on in order to pass the video signals through to your TV. When watching a program that is protected by Macrovision, turn the VCR off to ensure a quality picture.
