Getting Started
Connecting an
S-Video Source
The iCEBOX can support one S-Video signal that can be viewed in Video
Mode. Press the Video mode button repeatedly to toggle between the S-
Video signal and an RCA signal. For more information see Video Mode
on page 41.
S-Video (Super-Video) divides video information into two separate signals
for a sharper, higher-quality image. Most new video cameras, camcord-
ers, VCRs, and game machines include an S-Video jack. You can also use
the S-Video jack for Satellite or Digital Cable.
To connect an S-Video source
•
Plug an S-Video cable from the camera, VCR, game machine or satel-
lite/cable receiver into the S-Video connection on the back of the
iCEBOX.
•
Insert audio cables from the S-Video device into the Audio In connec-
tions in the back of the iCEBOX.
Connecting a
Camera, VCR or
Video Game.
Using the iCEBOX Video Mode, you can monitor another area of your
home where a video camera is installed, play a video game or view a
video tape in a VCR using an RCA Composite signal.
Since Video Mode supports both RCA and S-Video sources, you can tog-
gle between the two signals by repeatedly pressing the Video mode
button. For more information see Video Mode on page 41.
Note:
At this time, Video Mode supports only one Audio source which
will continue to play when you toggle between Video signals.
To connect an RCA Composite source
•
Plug an RCA cable from a camera, VCR or game machine into the
Video In connection on the back of the iCEBOX.
•
Insert audio cables from the device into the Audio In connections on the
back of the iCEBOX.
Connecting the
FM Radio
Antenna
You can use the iCEBOX to listen to your favorite local FM radio stations in
FM Radio Mode. Enclosed with your iCEBOX FlipScreen is a dipole FM
radio antenna and an adapter.
To connect the FM Antenna
1.
Make sure the FlipScreen unit is powered off by checking the LED on
the front of the unit – it should be black and unlit. The power can be
turned off using the red rocker switch on the back of the unit.
2.
Remove the antenna from the iCEBOX packaging
3.
Attach the antenna to the adapter (see Figure 1) by screwing it onto
the FM Antenna coaxial socket (see Figure 2) on the back of the
FlipScreen.
