Fisher FVH-E439 - Manual (Page 12)

ALTERNATIVE CABLE TV CONNECTIONS
Your VCR can receive all unscrambled cable channels
without the use of an external converter. If you wish to
view and record scrambled cable channels, you must
connect a converter/decoder as described below. Your local cable TV company will advise you of the
channels available in your area.
We recommend that you consult your cable TV company
to make sure that the cable is properly connected.
When the TV does not have a built-in cable converter
Connect the cable TV converter between the VCR and
the TV so that you can watch a cable TV program while
recording another program. NOTE: Set the TV channel to the cable converter output
channel (CH02 ~ 07).
When you have both cable and pay TV (scrambled channels)
NOTES:
œ With this method the TV and VCR receive the same
channel. Recording one program while watching
another is not possible. œ With this connection, the VCR must be set to the cable
converter/decoder output channel. (See next page.)
NOTE TO CATV SYSTEM INSTALLER (USA only): This
reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s
attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides
guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the
grounding system of the building, as close to the point of
cable entry as practicable.
