Connecting to a Cable Box or
Satellite Receiver
Option 1
If your Cable Box/Satellite Receiver
has only an antenna output socket
(RF OUT or TO TV)
,
refer to “Connecting the antenna cables”
on page 15 for the complete connection
to your TV.
Option 2 (as shown on the above illustration)
If your Cable Box/Satellite Receiver
has a Scart output socket
A
Keep the existing antenna connection
from the Cable Box/Satellite Receiver to
your TV.
B
Use the scart cable to connect the
EXT1 TO TV-I/O
socket on the
recorder to the corresponding SCART
input socket on the TV.
C
Use another scart cable to connect the
EXT2 AUX-I/O
socket on the recorder
to the Scart output socket (or labelled as
TV OUT or TO TV) on the Cable Box/
Satellite Receiver.
D
Connect the supplied G-LINK cable to
the
G-LINK
socket on the recorder.
E
Place the other end of the G-LINK
transmitter in front of the Cable Box/
Satellite Receiver near to the IR sensor
(remote sensor) so that its infrared
detector can receive a clear signal.
This will enable the recorder to
receive data from the GUIDE Plus+
system and control the tuner of the
external receiver.
Helpful Hint:
– If your TV is connected to the recorder via
the COMPONENT VIDEO (Y Pb Pr) sockets,
then connect the external cable box/satellite
receiver to the EXT1 TO TV-I/O socket.
