DVD+VCR Connections Panel
ips
Depending on your TV and other equipment you wish to
connect, there are various ways you could connect the
DVD+VCR. Use connections described on pages 11-14.
Please refer to the manuals of your TV, VCR, Stereo
System or other devices as necessary to make the best
connections.
Caution
Make sure the DVD+VCR is connected directly to the TV.
Tune the TV to the correct video input channel.
Do not connect the DVD+VCR’s DVD/VCR AUDIO OUT
jack to the phono in jack (record deck) of your audio
system.
Do not connect your DVD+VCR via your VCR. The DVD
image could be distorted by the copy protection system.
Connecting Antenna/Cable TV to
DVD+VCR
11
Disconnect the antenna leads from the rear of the
TV.
22
Identify the type of cable from your antenna. If it is a
round cable as illustrated, it is a 75 ohm coaxial
antenna cable. This cable will connect directly to the
jack marked ANT.IN on your DVD+VCR.
ip
If your antenna lead wire is a flat type antenna cable,
connect it to an Antenna adapter (300-ohm to 75-ohm)
(not supplied) and slip the adapter onto the ANT.IN
jack. The adapter does not screw on to the DVD+VCR,
it just slips over the jack.
Without Cable Box
If your cable wire is connected to your TV without a converter
or descrambler box, unscrew the wire from your TV and attach
it to the ANT.IN jack on the DVD+VCR. Use the supplied round
coaxial cable to connect between the DVD+VCR’s RF.OUT jack
and the 75 ohm antenna input jack on the TV. With this connec-
tion, you can receive all midband, super band, and hyperband
channels (all cable channels).
With Cable Box
If a converter is required in your cable system, follow the
instruction below:
The cable hookup permits both TV and DVD+VCR operation.
To view or record a CATV channel
1 Tune the TV to the DVD+VCR output channel (CH 3 or 4).
2 Set the DVD+VCR channel selector to the output channel of
the Cable Converter box using CH/TRK (v/V) or number
(0-9) of your DVD+VCR. (Example: CH3)
3 Select the channel to view at the Cable Converter Box.
otes
With this connection, you CANNOT record one program
while viewing another.
If you are using a cable box to tune channels, it is not neces-
sary to do Auto Channel Programming, (Auto Channel
Search) as indicated on page 20.
Note: Be sure to select CATV for channel Source.
