Connecting the Television Signal

Wall to cable TV set-top box or satellite box to VCR to TV using coaxial cable

Remove the coaxial cable at the input to the VCR,
and connect it to the input of a coaxial cable signal
splitter (not included; available at electronics stores).
Connect two coaxial cables to the splitter outputs.

Connect one of these cables to the input of the VCR
and the other one to the TV connector on the back of
the PC. Be sure to connect the remote control sensor
cable (emitter) and position it on your set-top box or
satellite box. This allows the PC to change the
channel on the box. See “Connecting the Remote
Sensor” on page 21.
