Cable overview
You may not need to use all the cables provided with your ReplayTV. Your setup will
depend on the components (Cable box, VCR, etc.) you use. The telephone cable is not
needed because the ReplayTV 4000 uses an Ethernet connection. During setup, you may
be called upon to identify one or more of the following cables:
Coaxial cable
Coaxial cable can deliver the signals broadcast by your cable TV company, or local sta-
tions. You can connect the supplied coaxial cable from ReplayTV to your television.
S-Video cable
S-Video cable delivers high quality video signals between ReplayTV and your television.
Older-model TVs may not support S-Video. Because S-Video cable only provides the
video signal, it must be used in combination with both of the audio plugs (red and white)
on an A/V cable.
A/V cable
A/V cable delivers audio and video signals between ReplayTV and your television. The
red and white plugs deliver stereo audio. The yellow plug delivers video.
Serial cable
Many satellite receivers use serial cables to communicate. Serial cable lets ReplayTV
change the channels on your satellite receiver. (The RJH to 9-pin adapter connects to this
cable, if it’s used.)
IR blaster cable
The IR blaster cable lets ReplayTV change the channels on your satellite receiver or cable
box if it does not support serial cable. The IR blaster emitters need to be affixed directly
over the IR detector on your satellite receiver or cable box.
