4. Connecting your devices
Before installing your recorder:
•
Please check that the delivery is complete (see
Package contents
, page 5).
•
Please ensure that the appliances to be connected together (recorder, TV set, VCR/DVD…) are
unplugged before making any connections.
•
Please ensure that Digital Terrestrial Television (DTT) is available in your area.
Connection to the terrestrial antenna
Very often to get the best reception, you may simply need to adjust your antenna. Alternatively, you can
connect an indoor antenna to your system. For more information, please contact your specialised
distributor.
Standard outdoor antenna
Preferably use an outside roof antenna that is designed to receive UHF channels (21 to 69). However:
•
if your building is equipped with an old antenna model, digital channels may be difficult or even
impossible to receive. The problem can only be resolved by changing the antenna.
•
if your building is equipped with a common antenna which contains selective filters devised for
analogue channels, reception will most probably not work correctly. In this case, you will have to
contact the administrator of the building.
•
some antennas directed towards an analogue TV transmitter must be re-adjusted towards a digital
TV transmitter. If you encounter reception problems, you can also try placing the antenna at
different heights.
Indoor antenna
In ideal reception conditions, this type of antenna is sufficient. Here, however, are some useful tips:
•
use an antenna designed to receive channels 21 to 69.
•
install the antenna close to the window and direct it towards the digital TV transmitter.
•
if possible, use an antenna with an amplifier. The recorder can provide remote power supply to your
indoor antenna (see
Setting the power parameters
, page 40).
Connection to the antenna
1.
Plug the antenna cable (not supplied) into the
ANTENNA
IN
input connector on your recorder.
2.
You can connect the RF output connector of your recorder to the antenna input of the television set
or VCR/DVD recorder (cable not supplied).
