Most cable companies that require use of a converter/decoder box
only require the box for scrambled premium channels like HBO or
Showtime. All the other cable-TV channels can usually be viewed
without the converter box. Therefore, by using a signal splitter,
you can send the incoming cable-TV signals directly to the TV and
also thru the converter/decoder box and VCR as shown above.
You can easily switch between
the signals coming into the
ANT A jack and the ANT B
jack by changing the
ANTENNA function as shown
at right.
The cable-TV channels that are not scrambled can then be seen
whenever the TV is receiving the ANT A signals. The cable-TV
channels that are scrambled can then be seen thru the converter box
and then thru the VCR whenever the TV is receiving the ANT B
signals. Most VCR’s will feed the signal thru their antenna jacks
even when the VCR is turned off. This allows you to watch
scrambled channels from the converter box without having to turn
on the VCR.
This connection can be useful because it will let you record a
scrambled channel on the VCR at the same time you are watching
a non-scrambled channel thru the ANT A jack on the TV.
For picture-in-picture viewing, be sure to also connect the audio
and video cables from the VCR to the TV as shown on
pages 34-35. The VCR must be turned on and tuned to the output
channel of the cable box (usually 2, 3, or 4) for picture-in-picture
viewing.

electronics supply stores.
Remember to tune the
VCR to the output channel
of the converter box
(usually 2, 3, or 4).
Note: If you have a stereo VCR, be sure to also connect the
AUDIO and VIDEO OUT jacks on the VCR to the AUDIO and
VIDEO IN jacks on the TV as shown on page 34. These additional
audio/video connections are required for picture-in-picture
operation and for stereo playback from the VCR. To see the
signals from the VCR that are going into the INPUT jacks, select
TV channel 91 if you connected the VCR to the INPUT 1 jacks or
select channel 92 if you connected the VCR to the INPUT 2 jacks.
Select TV channel 90 if you have an S-VHS VCR connected to the
TV’s S-VIDEO connector.
Remember to tune the TV to
the output channel of the VCR
(usually 3 or 4)—the same
channel as the position of the
VCR’s
CH3/CH4 switch.
