Chapter 3: Setting up and connecting
Audio/Video out jacks and cables (RCA-type)
Audio/Video jacks and cables provide stereo sound
and a better TV picture than RF jacks and cables. Use
these jacks and cables to connect your receiver to a
TV, VCR, or to other components such as a stereo
receiver or amplifier. The Video out jacks provide a
basic quality composite video signal using RCA-type
cables. (Maximum resolution via this jack is 480i.)
Telephone jack and cord
The TEL LINE jack and the included telephone cord
connect your DIRECTV HD Receiver to a phone line.
If your home does not have RJ-11 type phone jacks,
please contact your phone company to get one installed.
S-Video jack and cable
S-Video cables and jacks are used to connect to TVs, VCRs,
and other video devices equipped with S-Video input jacks.
S-Video connections provide a high-quality TV picture (better
than RCA-type A/V jacks and cables). S-Video connectors
must be correctly aligned before you can plug in the cable.
Maximum resolution via this jack is 480i. (This cable carries the
video signal only; use with audio cables for the audio signal.)
Component video cables and jacks (“Y, Pb, Pr”) are
used to connect the DIRECTV HD Receiver to TVs,
VCRs, and A/V receivers equipped with component
video input jacks. Component video connections
provide a TV picture superior to S-Video connections.
Component video jacks use 3 RCA-type cables to carry
the signal. This connection is capable of displaying
Digital TV and HDTV video resolutions. (These cables
carry video only; use with audio cables for the audio
signal.)
Audio jacks can be used to connect the DIRECTV ® High-Definition Receiver to an
A/V receiver. The audio/video jacks on the back of the receiver and the audio/video
cable connectors are color coded (yellow for video, red for right audio, and white for
left audio).
A continuous land-based phone line connection is required for DIRECTV ® Pay Per
View functionality and DIRECTV SPORTS ® subscriptions. Any calls generated by the
DIRECTV HD Receiver are toll-free. These calls are typically made in the middle of
the night; your phone is in use for approximately 30 seconds.
