Better Connection: If both your TV and VCR have A/V jacks, connect the VCR’s A/V OUT jacks to the TV’s A/V IN jacks.

Good Connection: If your TV or VCR has only an RF jack, connect the VCR’s VHF/UHF OUT jack to the TV’s VHF/UHF IN jack.

6 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.

7 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

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

Best 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 audio receiver’s AUDIO IN jacks.

If you are using the VCR Mouse, see page 20 for setup instructions.
