Connecting to a cable box or
satellite receiver
If you have a cable box or satellite receiver
with a built-in decoder, connect it to this
recorder and your TV as shown on the
following page. 1 If you are using a separate
decoder box for your cable/satellite TV, set
up following the instructions on the next
page.
Using the setup on this page you can:
• Record any channel by selecting it on
the cable box or satellite receiver.
• Change channels and set timer
recordings on the external receiver using
the GUIDE Plus+
®
system (via the
G-LINK™ cable, and after setting up).
Important
• Do not connect this recorder to your TV
‘through’ your VCR, satellite receiver or
other component. Always connect each
component directly to your TV or AV
amplifier/receiver.
• When using the GUIDE Plus+ system to
make a timer recording from an external
receiver, make sure that the external
receiver is switched on.
1 Connect RF antenna cables as shown.
See Connecting a TV antenna on page 16 for
more on RF antenna connections, including
from this recorder to your TV.
2 Use a SCART cable (not supplied) to
connect the AV1(RGB)-TV AV connector
to a SCART AV connector on your TV.
This enables you to watch discs.
3 Use another SCART cable to connect
the AV2(INPUT 1/DECODER) AV
connector to a SCART AV connector on
your cable box/satellite receiver.
This enables you to record scrambled TV
channels.
Note
1 The diagram shows SCART video connections, but you can alternatively use any of the other audio/video con-
nections.
