CHAPTER 3
Setting up and connecting
3 3
Make strong connections
Make sure you securely connect cables when making connections. When a tight fit makes a secure connection difficult,
you can sometimes make it easier by gently twisting the cable-end while pushing it onto the jack. (Important: never twist
S-Video or Optical Digital Audio cables — they have specially shaped ends that must be correctly oriented before connecting.)
Avoid cable damage
Never kink, bend, or twist optical digital audio cables; doing so might break the fragile optical fibers they contain,
rendering them unable to carry a signal.
Jacks and cables
The illustrations in this section show the various types of jacks and cables used to connect
your DIRECTV
® HD Receiver.
ANTENNA terminals (cable not included)
Use AIR IN and CABLE IN terminals to receive a signal
from VHF/UHF antennas or your cable system using an
RG-6 coaxial cable, SATELLITE IN terminals can be used
to connect Satellite dish input.
Audio/Video out jacks and cables (RCA-type)
Use these jacks and cables to connect your receiver
to a TV, VCR, or to other components such as a stereo
receiver or amplifier. The Video out jacks provide a
basic quality composite video signal using RCA-type
cables. Audio jacks can be used to connect the
DIRECTV
® HD Receiver to an A/V receiver.
The audio/video jacks on the back of the receiver
and the audio/video cable connectors are color coded
(yellow for video, red for right audio, and white for
left audio).
