Chapter 3
Connecting Your System
Overview
Read this chapter to set up your DSS receiver for the first time, or to
add or remove audio or video components connected to your system.
You can connect the DSS receiver in a variety of configurations. The
answers to the following questions will determine how you hook up
and operate your DSS receiver. For example:
□
Do you have cable TV or a broadcast (terrestrial) TV antenna?
□
What type of connectors do your TV and VCR have: S-VIDEO,
A/V (RCA-type), or RF coaxial?
□
Do you plan to integrate your DSS receiver with your audio or
video system?
General Recommendations
Control-S is disabled lohen receiver
is in RF ONLY mode.
Detailed hookup instructions are provided on the pages that follow.
For optimum audio and video performance, follow these general
recommendations as much as possible when hooking up your
components:
□
If you have an audio or audio/video system, consider integrating
the DSS receiver into a home entertainment configuration to take
advantage of your hi-fi system's audio capabilities.
□
If your TV has an S-VIDEO jack, use it to connect your TV to the
DSS receiver. An S-Video connection provides a better picture than
RCA-type video or RE connections.
□
If your TV doesn't have an S-VIDEO jack, use your TV's A/V
connectors to connect your components. An A/V connection
provides a better picture and audio when compared to an RE
connection.
□
If you have other Sony components that include CONTROL-S
jacks, you can cormect these components via their CONTROL-S
jacks in order to pass remote control signals between the DSS
receiver and these components. This allows you to hide
components behind cabinet doors.
