Connecting The Equipment - Pace TDC575D Operator's Manual

CONNECTING THE EQUIPMENT

Your equipment should have been connected up by your installer. However, if you
need to disconnect and re-connect your equipment, please read the information on
pages 10 to 13.
On page 12 there is a typical connection set-up for a TV, VCR, DVD player and home
theater receiver.
This set-up makes efficient use of the connectors on your set-top. However,
depending on your other equipment and the connectors on it, the person who
installed your system may have chosen to connect things up differently.
The set-up allows stereo recording and play-back of video tapes. You hear stereo
sound from the home theater's loudspeakers.
Although the RF cables are not absolutely necessary, we recommend that you
connect them as a back-up and so that you can use the RF bypass (but note that they
will provide only mono sound to the TV and VCR).
If you also connect an optical audio connector, as shown, it means that the home
theater receiver can take advantage of digital audio via your set-top's optical audio
output.

WARNINGS
Do not connect your set-top (or any other
equipment such as a TV or VCR) to the AC power
supply until you have properly connected all the
other cables.
Disconnect your set-top from the AC power
supply before you disconnect any other
equipment from its rear panel.
The only way to disconnect your set-top from
the AC power supply is to remove the AC power
cord (or switch the wall socket-outlet switch, if
present, to its OFF position). Your set-top must
therefore be installed near to the AC power
socket-outlet, which should be easily accessible.
The power outlet is designed only for connection
to the AC power cord for a TV. The maximum
power it can supply is 500 Watts. Do not connect
any equipment that uses more than 500 Watts, or
any non-TV equipment such as a toaster or hair
dryer.
The cable input is designed for connection to a
cable network only. You must not connect any
other equipment, such as a VCR, to this input.
Any cable connected to the DIGITAL AUDIO jack
must be 75 ohm coaxial, not regular audio cable.
