Using an RF Bypass Module

When you use the Bypass feature, the regular
(analog) cable signal bypasses the Explorer DHCT
and goes directly to your TV, which allows you to
view any regular cable program. At the same
time, the DHCT sends cable signals to your VCR,
and you can record any channel to which the
DHCT is tuned, including premium or pay-per-
view channels.

When you disable the Bypass feature, both your
VCR and TV can receive cable signals from the
Explorer DHCT.

Note:

After installing the Bypass module, tune

the VCR input to the Explorer DHCT’s output
channel (channel 3 or 4).

Connecting the Module

Follow these steps to connect an RF Bypass module to
