Connecting a Standard TV
Follow these steps to connect the VCP to a standard TV that has a 75-ohm cable jack (but
does not have separate audio and video input jacks).
1. Make sure the TV is off, then disconnect the antenna or cable wire from your TV’s VHF
antenna terminal and connect it to the VCP’s ANT.IN terminal.
Notes:
• If your antenna has a 300-ohm wire, connect the wire to the 300-ohm screw terminals
on the supplied 300-to-75-ohm adapter. Then connect the adapter’s 75-ohm
connector to the VCP’s
ANT.IN terminal.
• If you have a VHF/UHF splitter connected to your TV, disconnect the antenna wire
from the splitter’s input terminal and leave the splitter connected to the TV.
• If you have a separate UHF antenna, leave the UHF antenna wire connected to the TV.
2. Using the supplied 75-ohm coaxial cable, connect the VCP’s RF.OUT terminal to the TV’s
VHF antenna terminal (or the splitter’s input terminal). If your TV has only 300-ohm
antenna terminal, use a 75-to-300-ohm adapter (not supplied) to connect the VCP’s
output to your TV.
3. Set the CHANNEL switch on the back of the VCP as described under “Setting the Channel
Switch” on Page 10.
