Connections
Tips:
• Depending on your TV and other equipment you
wish to connect, there are various ways you could
connect the Home Theater System. Use only one of
the connections described below.
• 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 Home Theater System is connected
directly to the TV. Tune the TV to the correct video
input channel.
• Do not connect the Home Theater System’s AUDIO
OUT jack to the phono in jack (record deck) of your
audio system.
• Do not connect your Home Theater Systemr via
your VCR. The DVD image could be distorted by
the copy protection system.
Connecting Antenna/Cable TV to
Home Theater System
1. Disconnect the antenna leads from the rear of the
TV.
2. 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 Recorder Combi
Receiver.
Tips:
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 jack.
The Adapter does not screw on to the Recorder
Combi Receiver, it just slips over the jack.
Cable Service 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 Combi Receiver.
Use the supplied round coaxial cable to connect between the
Combi Receiver’s RF.OUT jack and the 75 ohm antenna
input jack on the TV. With this connection, you can receive
all midband, super band, and hyperband channels. (All cable
channels.)
Cable Service With Cable Box
If a converter is required in your cable system, follow the
instruction below:
The cable hookup permits both TV and Combi Receiver
operation.
To view or record a CATV channel
1. Tune the TV to the correct video input channel.
2. Set the Home Theater System channel selector to the
output channel of the Cable Converter box using
TRK/PRESET(-/+) (v / V) or number (0-9) of your Combi
Receiver. (Example: CH3)
3. Select the channel to view at the Cable Converter Box.
Note:
If you are using a cable box to tune channels, it is not
necessary to do Auto Channel Set as indicated on page 22.
