Step 1: Connecting the Aerial Cable and Set Top Box
Controller
If the set top box receiver can output RGB signals
This recorder accepts RGB signals. If the set top box receiver can output RGB signals, connect
the TV SCART connector on the set top box receiver to the LINE 1/DECODER jack, and set
“LINE 1 In” to “RGB” in the “Video In/Out” setup (page 137). See the instructions supplied
with the set top box receiver.
The set top box receiver control function can be used with hookup B. It allows the recorder to
control a set top box receiver via the supplied set top box controller. The recorder controls
programme positions on the set top box receiver for timer recording. You can also use the
recorder’s remote control to change programme positions on the set top box receiver whenever
the set top box receiver and recorder are turned on.
To use the set top box receiver control function, you need to connect the set top box controller
(page 17). After setting up the set top box receiver control, check that the recorder can correctly
control the set top box receiver (page 28).

Notes
• If your aerial is a flat cable (300-ohm twin lead cable), use an external aerial connector (not supplied) to
connect the aerial to the recorder.
• If you have separate cables for AERIAL antennas, use an AERIAL UHF/VHF band mixer (not supplied)
to connect the aerial to the recorder.
• If you disconnect the recorder’s mains lead, you will not be able to view the signals from the connected
set top box receiver.
