Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Connecting a VCR and satellite receiver

You will need:

￿one signal splitter

￿four coaxial cables

￿one set of component video cables (if your satellite receiver does not have component video, connect the standard A/V cables only)

￿one pair of standard audio cables

￿two sets of standard A/V cables

For better picture performance, if your satellite receiver and VCR have S-video, connect S-video cables (plus the audio cables) instead of the standard video cables. Do not connect both types of video cable to VIDEO 1 (or VIDEO 2) at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the TV (VIDEO 1) to your VCR’s AUDIO OUT terminal using the white audio cable only.

￿To view satellite programs using the component video connections:

Select the ColorStream HD-1 video input source on the TV.*

￿To view satellite programs using the standard video connections or to record satellite programs:

Turn on all three devices. Set the VCR to the appropriate line input (refer to your VCR owner’s manual for details). Select the VIDEO 2 video input source on the TV.*

￿To view the VCR or view and record antenna channels:

Turn ON the VCR. Tune the VCR to the channel you want to watch. Select the VIDEO 1 video input source on the TV.*
