Scrambled Cable-TV Channels

Some cable-TV decoders require that you manually switch

from regular to scrambled channels on the decoder

whenever you wish to view the premium pay channels.

By connecting the decoder to the

ANT A

input and

CONVERTER

output on the TV as shown here, you can

switch between the scrambled and unscrambled channels

using the remote control.

To change the incoming signal from

ANT A

to

ANT B,

simply press the

ANT

(Antenna) button on the remote. Each

time you press the

ANT

button, the channel numbers will

change color on the screen to show which antenna signal

you are watching.

' Optional accessories are available from most RCA dealers and

electronics supply stores.

(ConvertBr/Decoder)

Nonscrambled cable channels will come thru

the ANT B

input

whenever the channel numbers are yellow. The scrambled

channel from the decoder box will come thru

the ANT A

input

whenever the channel numbers are blue. Be sure to leave the

decoder box set to the scrambled channel, and remember to

tune your TV to the output channel of the converter box

(usually 2, 3, or 4).
