Step 2: Connections
Option 1: Basic connection to TV
Connect your existing antenna cable to the
ANTENNA IN jack of the Converter Box.
Connect the RF coaxial cable (supplied) from the
OUTPUT TO TV jack of the Converter Box to the
ANTENNA jack of the TV set.
Slide the CH3/CH4 selector on the back of the
Converter Box to the channel that is not in use in
your area. The Converter Box will send its video signal
to either Channel 3 or 4 on your TV.
Connect the Audio/Video cables (not supplied) from
the AUDIO / VIDEO output jacks (yellow, white, red)
of the Converter Box to the Audio/Video IN jacks on
the TV set. If there are more than two sets of Audio/
Video jacks on the TV set, connect only either INPUT1
or INPUT2 to those of your converter box.
Connect the AC power cable of the Converter Box to
a suitable wall outlet.
Tip:
Using the optional Audio/Video cable
connection provides better picture quality in
case your TV set has Audio/Video input available.
Note:
You may choose to connect the RF coaxial cable
to TV, or Audio/Video cables to TV, or both the
RF coaxial cable and AV cables to TV.
