Connecting the Cable

This section describes how to connect the antenna cable to your computer.

Connecting the antenna cable

■ Some computer models are equipped with a tuner capable of receiving digital broadcasts. These tuners can receive DVB-T digital broadcasts. Digital broadcasts cannot be received in regions where DVB-T digital broadcasts are not available.

■Simultaneous reception and recording cannot be used when a set-top box is connected and the above settings are made.

■According to the government regulations, it is not permitted to bring PAL/SECAM TV tuners into Korea.

When lightning occurs, do not touch the antenna line. This may cause an electric shock.

If you have to operate your computer during a thunderstorm and are connecting the TV tuner to an outside antenna, you should operate your computer using AC power mode. The AC adaptor offers some protection against (but does not entirely prevent) possible electric shock caused by lightning. For complete protection, do not operate your computer during a thunderstorm.

1.Save data, shutdown Windows and turn off the power.

2.Connect the antenna cable to the TV antenna port of your computer.
