Using Your VAIO Computer

Connecting with a cable or satellite set-top box (STB)

You can connect your computer to cable service access that uses a set-top box (cable or satellite). When using the set-top box (STB) setup, you can only change channels through the STB, using its controls or supplied remote commander.

When using the STB setup:

A standard TV remote control cannot be used to change TV channels. You can use your TV remote control to set the TV to the channel-out number (channel 3, 4, etc.) or direct video input specified by your cable or satellite service provider.

You may be able to use a universal remote control or commander to change TV channels, if the device is able to control the STB.

To connect in STB mode (Option 1)

1Connect the coaxial cable feed connector (1) (supplied) to the RF In jack (2) on the TV tuner bay unit.

2Connect one end of a TV coaxial cable (3) (not supplied) to your cable service access (wall outlet) (4). Connect the other end to the VHF/UHF IN jack on the back panel of your set-top box (STB) (5).

3Connect a second TV coaxial cable (6) (not supplied) to the VHF/UHF OUT jack on your STB unit (5). Connect the other end to the single-connection end of a splitter device (7) (not supplied).

4Connect a third TV coaxial cable (8) (not supplied) to the double-connection end of the splitter device (7). Connect the other end to the coaxial cable feed connector (1) from the TV tuner bay unit.

5Connect a fourth TV coaxial cable (9) (not supplied) to the double-connection end of the splitter device (7). Connect the other end to the VHF/UHF port (10) on the rear of your TV monitor or display.
