Connecting a cable converter box and a VCR
This connection allows you to watch videotapes and watch and record basic and premium cable channels. Tune the TV and
VCR channels to 3 or 4 (whichever channel is vacant in your area), and then use the converter box to change channels.
You will need:
• one cable signal splitter
• three coaxial cables
• one pair of audio cables (one single audio
cable for a mono VCR)
• one video cable (for video cable type, see
“Note Regarding Picture Quality” on
page 5).
Note:
If you have a mono VCR, connect TV L/Mono Audio
IN to VCR Audio OUT using only one audio cable.
When you use a converter box with your TV, you
may not be able to program certain features using
the remote control, such as blocking channels or
programming your favorite channels.
Connecting a satellite receiver and a VCR
This connection allows you to watch satellite, VCR, and TV programs.
You can record one TV channel while watching another channel.
You will need:
• one coaxial cable
• two pairs of audio cables (one single and one pair of audio cables
for a mono VCR)
• two video cables (for video cable type, see “Note Regarding
Picture Quality” on page 5).
Notes:
●
To watch from the satellite receiver, the TV
must select VIDEO-1.
