Jacks and Cables

Below is a description of the jacks and cables you can use to make
connections. Note that not all cables come with your satellite system.
S-Video Jack and Cable
The S-Video jack provides the best picture quality for your satellite
system.
S-Video Jack
This jack is available on many TVs and is used in conjunction with audio
cables to connect the receiver to your TV. Remember also to connect the
left and right audio cables because the S-Video jack carries only the
picture signal, not the sound.
Audio/Video Jacks and Cables (RCA-type)
The audio/video jacks provide very good picture and stereo sound
quality, and should be used if your TV has no S-Video jack.
Theses jacks are used for most audio/video connections between
Audio/Video Jacks
components. The receiver audio/video jacks are color coded (yellow for
video, red for right audio, and white for left audio). If your TV has only
one input for audio (mono), connect it to the right (red) audio jack on
the receiver.
RF Jacks and Coaxial Cables (F-type)
The RF jacks provide good picture and mono sound quality, and are to
be used if audio/video connections are not available for your TV.
These jacks are required for antenna or cable-TV connections. The RF
RF Jack
jacks on the receiver are labeled IN FROM ANT and OUT TO TV. The
coaxial cable supplied with your system is used to connect the RF jacks
between the receiver and your TV's antenna input.
VCR Controller Jack and Cable
The VCR controller cable plugs into a jack on the receiver's back panel.
The other end of the cable affixes to your VCR's remote sensor.
