Cable Channel Designations
Your Model 28 can receive up to 125 cable chan-
nels, displayed as 1-125. Channels 2-13 are the
same for VHF and cable TV, and cable compa-
nies usually number them as they appear on the
TV screen. For other channels, the cable ser-
vice’s channel designations might not match the
channel numbers that appear on the TV screen.
For more information, contact your cable com-
pany. You still might have to experiment to de-
termine the proper cable channel designations
for your cable system.
CONNECTING AN EXTERNAL
DEVICE
You can connect another audio/video device
that has audio/video outputs, such as a VCR,
camcorder, or satellite receiver, to the Model 28
so you can view the source’s output on the Mod-
el 28. You can also connect a device that has
audio/video inputs, such as a TV/monitor or
VCR, to the Model 28 so you can view or record
the Model 28’s output on the device.
Note: Always use video-quality shielded cables
with phono connectors. Do not use standard au-
dio patch cords.
To connect an audio/video device’s outputs to
the Model 28, connect the device’s video and
audio outputs to the corresponding
VIDEO IN
and AUDIO IN jacks on the back of the Model 28,
or the VIDEO INPUT and AUDIO INPUT jacks on
the front of the Model 28.
Note: If you connect external devices to both
sets of audio/video input jacks on your Model
28, the
VIDEO INPUT and AUDIO INPUT jacks on
the front of the Model 28 have priority.
To connect an audio/video device’s inputs to the
Model 28, connect the
AUDIO OUT and VIDEO
OUT jacks on the back of the Model 28 to the
corresponding audio and video input jacks on
the audio/video device.
Note: To view the signals from the Model 28 on
a TV/monitor, set the TV/monitor to its video
mode.
CONNECTING POWER
Using the AC Power Cord
Warning: For your protection, the power cord
has a polarized plug. To prevent blade expo-
sure, be sure the blades fit fully and easily into
the outlet. If you do not have a polarized outlet,
have a qualified electrician install one before
you use the Model 28.
Plug the supplied AC power cord’s smaller end
into the Model 28’s
AC 120V connector. Then
plug the other end into a standard AC outlet.
