RF BYPASS
You use the RF bypass feature to make the regular (analog) channels bypass the set-top and pass
directly to the TV and/or VCR.
For the RF bypass to work, the equipment must be connected by RF leads (see the diagram, right).
Other connections are possible in addition to those shown (see connections A to I) provided that
the RF connection is included.
When you turn on the bypass, you can use the TV’s remote control to tune to any of the regular
(analog) channels and watch that channel on the TV. At the same time, you can record a different
channel (digital or analog) on the VCR. For this to happen, you must turn on the set-top (so that
front-panel power light, around the
power
button, lights up), select on it the channel you wish to
record (shown on its front panel) and set up the VCR to record from the set-top.
When you turn off the bypass, you see on the TV, the channel that is selected on the set-top. This
is the same channel that the VCR receives. So, when the bypass is off, you can record only the channel
that you are watching on the TV.
