Connection to TV
You have two options for connecting your receiver to your TV. One way is using the SCART cable. The other option is
ordinary aerial input (RF). The SCART connection provides the optimum picture and sound quality for most modern TV
equipment and is therefore the one recommended whenever the TV set has a SCART input.
The SCART cable must be connected from "TV SCART" (the bottom SCART plug) on the receiver to an available SCART
plug on the TV set.
If you want to use the ordinary aerial input to your TV, you should connect a standard aerial cable from the "RF OUT"
on the Force receiver to the aerial connection on your TV equipment. The signal from the Force receiver can be carried in
any channel in the range 21 to 69. As standard, channel 38 is used. This can be altered during installation or normal
operation.
2.5
Receiving Analogue Channels
If you use the ordinary aerial input to your TV, you can include analogue TV signals on this connection.
If you have a satellite receiver, you will also need an analogue TV aerial. Connect this aerial to the RF IN on the Force
receiver.
For Terrestrial receivers, the signals will already be present on the aerial connected to the Antenna In. Add a short RF
cable between ANT OUT and RF IN on the Force receiver.
2.6
Connection to video recorder
The analogue output (RF Out) can be used to connect to a video recorder.
If you have a 320 model, you are advised to use the VCR SCART output as this gives a better picture. Make sure to
connect the video to the Video SCART socket. If you have a stereo video and want to record broadcasts from your Force
receiver in stereo, you must use a fully configured SCART cable.
The Force receiver has various controls to give flexibility in the way the receiver interacts with your TV set and VCR (or
DVD player). Please refer to section 10.
2.7
Connecting a DVD Player (320 model only)
If your TV set does not have a separate SCART socket for a DVD player (this could be marked VCR on the TV Set) you can
connect a DVD player instead of the VCR to the VCR socket on the Force receiver. When the DVD player is running, the
TV will automatically receive its signal.
2.8
Audio connection to Hi-fi equipment (Model 320 only)
There are two options for connecting your Force receiver to Hi-fi equipment. An analogue signal is available on the two
PHONO plugs, marked L and R. A serial digital signal (SPDIF) is available on the DIGITAL AUDIO output. Refer to your Hi-
fi equipment manual to find out the most suitable one to use.
