)

4. RF connector (

)

You should configure audio and video settings after connecting

up the digital receiver. See §

3.2

for a detailed description.

To use the SCART connector

For best results with a standard television set,

you should use a SCART cable. Plug one end

of the cable into the

TV

socket on the digital

receiver, and plug the other end into a free
SCART socket on your television.

Some televisions have inputs via S-Video or
Component connectors rather than SCART.

If you have such a television, use an appropriate conversion ca-
ble to link the

TV

socket on the digital receiver to the matching

socket on your television.

If you connect with a standard SCART cable, you do not have
to make audio connection because the SCART connector can
output stereo audio. But if you use a conversion cable, such as
SCART-to-Component, you have to make audio connection.

To use the S-Video connector

You need to obtain a S-Video cable to use

the S-Video connector. Plug one end of the
cable into the

S-VIDEO

socket on the digi-

tal receiver, and plug the other end into the
matching socket on your television.
