PREPARATION FOR USE
ANTENNA/CABLE CONNECTIONS
VHF/UHF COMBINED ANTENNA
The VHF/UHF Rod Antenna (supplied with 13”
model only) is detachable. Insert the stem of the
antenna into the hole on the upper-back portion of
the TV/VCR. Connect the VHF/UHF Rod Antenna or
VHF/UHF Combination Antenna to the ANT. termi-
nal of the TV/VCR as shown in the diagram above.
For the best reception, fully extend the VHF/UHF
Rod Antenna and make the necessary adjustments.
(Avoid touching the top section when adjusting.)
NOTE:
Before plugging the Rod antenna into antenna termi-
nal, check that the pin is not bent. If it is bent,
straighten the pin as illustrated, then plug the pin into
antenna terminal.
CABLE WITHOUT CONVERTER/
DESCRAMBLER BOX
Use this connection if your cable system connects
directly to your TV/VCR without a converter box.
By using this connection you can:
1) Use the TV/VCR remote to select channels.
2) Program one or more unscrambled channels for
Automatic Timer Recording.
NOTE:
This unit will ONLY record and view the
same channel.
VHF/UHF SEPARATE ANTENNAS
In some areas it will be necessary to use an outdoor
antenna.
NOTE:
The connection of an indoor antenna may not always
give acceptable TV reception.
Note to CATV system installer:
This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that
provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connect-
ed to the grounding system of the building as close to the point of cable entry as practical.
CABLE WITH CONVERTER/
DESCRAMBLER BOX OR SATELLITE
BOX
If your cable service supplies you with a converter
box or if you use a satellite system, you can use the
basic connection shown here.
By using this connection you can also record scram-
bled channels. However, channel selection must be
made with the converter box or satellite box. This
means that channels cannot be changed using the
TV/VCR Remote Control. Unattended timer record-
ing is limited to one channel at a time.
