Connections
Connecting Your TV, continued
Do not plug in the receiver or devices to AC power
until you have connected all your devices.
This section focuses on the connections from your
TV to the KRF-X9992D. Please refer to your TV’s
instructions for more detail about its connection
jacks and capabilities.
The instructions in this section show how to con-
nect your TV as a monitor for the other video
devices you connect (without using it as an audio/
video source device itself). To use your TV as an
audio/video source device, you must first connect it
as described in this section, and also connect its
audio/video output jacks as if they were cable TV
tuner outputs, as described in “To Connect a Cable
TV Tuner with a Composite (RCA) Video Output”
on page 11.
To Connect a TV:
1. Review the information under “Before You
Begin” on page␣ 1. It contains important notes
about the types of video connections you can
make.
2. Connect a video cable from your TV’s Video IN
jack to the receiver’s MONITOR OUT jack as
shown to the left.
3. If your TV does not have any video input connec-
tions, you must purchase an RF modulator. The
modulator will convert the video signal from the
receiver to an RF signal that will work with the
TV’s antenna connections.
Connect the receiver to the TV according to the
RF modulator’s instruction manual.
4. Go to “Noting Your Devices” on page␣ 3 and note
which jack you used to connect your TV. In
addition, note the brand name and model
number of the TV.
If you previously connected your TV directly to your
VCR, you must now connect it through your new
receiver.
What if I Want to Watch TV without
Turning on the Receiver?
The connection described here sets your TV up as a
monitor you can use to view media played on your
other video devices (such as a VCR or DVD player).
You can still watch TV without having to use the
receiver.
