CONNECTIONS
CHOOSINCA VCR CONNECTION
There are several different ways to connect your VCR, depending on
whether or not you have cable service, and if you have a cable box,
and whether some of the channels are scrambled, and maybe you
have a satellite receiver along with cable (but no cable box), or a
satellite receiver and no cable or...well, you get the picture.
Five connections are described in this section and one of them should
provide you with a VCR connection that works.
• TV with RF jack only
• TV with audio/video jacks
• TV with audio/video jacks and cable box to unscramble pay
channels only
• TV with RF jack and satellite receiver
• TV with audio/video jacks and satellite receiver
If you need to connect additional components not shown in the
diagrams here (and are unsure of how to connect them), refer to the
instruction manual that came with that particular component.
ADVANTAGES OF AUDIOA^IDEO CABLE
CONNECTIONS
Using a simple coaxial cable connection gives you good picture
quality. If your television has audio/video jacks, I highly recommend
using them to get even better picture quality and stereo sound when
recording and playing back videotapes. These connections give you
more convenient operation by not having to share the TV's antenna
signal.
DON'T FORGET ABOUT THE AUTOTV/VCR
FEATURE
The TV/VCR switch controls whether the picture signal is coming
from the VCR or the TV.
You can change the setting manually by using the TV*VCR button on
the remote or you can set the Auto TV/VCR feature to ON when
using only IN FROM ANT and OUT TO TV jacks and OFF when using
the AUDIO/VIDEO output jacks-so your TV signal is not interrupted
when the VCR is turned on.
