NOTE: To obtain optimum picture quality, make sure the receiver is connected directly to the TV. Connecting the
receiver to the TV through a VCR or DVD recorder is known to yield less than optimum picture quality, particularly
when viewing copy-protected programming.
Note
Connecting Your DIRECTV Receiver to the Satellite Dish
Connect the RG-6 RF coaxial cable from your satellite dish to the jack labeled SATELLITE IN on
the DIRECTV Receiver. If your installation includes an FTM (Frequency Translation Module),
you should connect the RG-6 RF coaxial cable from your FTM to the SATELLITE IN jack. Some
systems may instead make this connection to a cable entry point in your house. Your DIRECTV
installer will make the appropriate connection..
Connecting Your DIRECTV Receiver to your TV or VCR
Depending on the connections on the back of your TV or VCR, you have the following options:
4 S-Video & A/V Audio Connection (Best Quality)
4 A/V Connection (Better Quality)
4 RF Coaxial Connection (Good Quality)
These connections are described on the following pages.
