Connecting Avcr; Connecting Avcr And Cable Box - Philips 51PW9363 Directions For Use Manual

Connecting Accessory Devices to Your TV
P
resented here is a connection example
involving a VCR and cable box.
Refer to the VCR's directions-for-use manual
for further information on connections.
To make the connections in this example, you
will need:
• one, two-way signal splitter
• two coaxial cables (75 )
• one cable for a video connection (standard
RCA-type phono plug)
• two cables for audio connections (standard
RCA-type phono plugs) (only one cable is
needed for connection to a nonstereo
VCR).
NOTE: The cables are not supplied with your
TV. You should be able to buy them at most
stores that sell electronics. Or you can call
our Customer Care Center at
1-800-531-0039.

• The RF output on a cable box, usually
labeled "OUTPUT," "OUT," or "TO TV,"
will not pass a stereo sound signal to the
POWER
ANTENNA IN 75 jack on the TV. If, how-
ever, your cable box has separate
Audio/Video outputs, using A/V cables to
connect to those outputs and to the A/V
VCR ACC inputs on the TV might pass a stereo sound
