Setting up
Your DVR is equipped with an RF (aerial) modulator. This feature allows you to watch pictures
on a TV set when only connected via the aerial lead. This can be useful if you wish to send
digital pictures to more than one TV in your house. Using the example method below, you can
also view the VCR on the 3 TVs; check the manual of your VCR for details on its RF modulator.
