CONNECTIONS

DIPOLE ANTENNA HOOK UP

CABLE WITHOUT CONVERTER/ DESCRAMBLER BOX

Use this connection if your cable system connects directly to your TV/VCR without a converter box. By using this connection you can:

1.Push the stem of the Dipole Antenna (supplied) into the hole for antenna at the back of TV/VCR.

2.Connect the flat twin-lead cable from the Dipole Antenna to the 300/75 ohm Matching Adapter (accessory).

3.Plug the Matching Adapter to ANT terminal of TV/VCR as shown in drawing.

For the best reception, extend the Dipole Antenna and adjust its length and position. (Avoid handling the top section when making adjustments.)

NOTE: If it is difficult to get good reception with the indoor antenna, the use of an outdoor antenna is recommended. Before an outdoor antenna is connect- ed to the set, the indoor antenna should be discon- nected.

VHF/UHF COMBINED ANTENNA

A VHF UHF 75 ohm combination antenna can be connected to ANT terminal.

1)Use the TV/VCR remote to select channels.

2)Program one or more unscrambled channels for Automatic Timer Recording.

NOTE: This unit will ONLY record and view the same channel.

CABLE WITH CONVERTER/ DESCRAMBLER BOX OR SATELLITE BOX

If your cable service supplies you with a converter box or if you use a satellite system, you can use the basic connection shown in drawing.

By using this connection you can also record scram- bled channels. However, channel selection must be made with the converter box or satellite box. This means that channels cannot be changed using the TV/VCR Remote Control. Unattended timer recording is limited to one channel at a time.
