tor, and one blue P
marked Y, P
, and P
r
monitor using the HDTV input connections marked Y, P

P
, and P
r
1080i scanning rate and that comply with the EIA 770.3 signal standards.
Refer to your television owner's guide for verification.
3) Connect one set of audio cables (one white left audio connector and one red right audio
connector) to the back of the HD receiver using the connectors marked AUDIO L, R.
Connect the other end of the audio cables to the back of the HDTV monitor using the
audio inputs.
Note: This connection allows the use of the speakers in the TV to hear the sound.
4) Connect a set of audio/video or S-video cables to the second set of AUDIO L, R, and
VIDEO or S-VIDEO connectors on the back of the HD receiver. Connect the other end to
the AUDIO, VIDEO, or S-VIDEO input connections on the back of the VCR.
5) Connect another set of audio/video or S-video cables to the back of the VCR using the
AUDIO and VIDEO output connection. Connect the other end of this cable to a group of
standard AUDIO, VIDEO, or S-VIDEO input connections on the back of your TV.
Note: This connection allows you to send HD receiver signals, converted to
standard 480i signals, to your VCR so they can be recorded.
You can see the playback of a video tape by selecting this input on your TV.
You can also pass HD receiver signals, converted to standard 480i format,
through your VCR to your TV; however, you may need to turn on your VCR to
pass these signals.
When the HD receiver is converting all signals to standard 480i signals that
can be recorded by standard VCRs, there will be no signals on the Y, P
P
connectors.
b
When the HD receiver is converting all signals to 1080i format that can be sent
to the HDTV input of the HD monitors, there will be no standard 480i signals
to send to VCRs or standard video inputs of TVs.
For better performance, if both the TV and the VCR have S-video connectors,
use S-video cables instead of standard yellow video cables.
Note: If you have connected a VCR into your entertainment system in a way
that routes the cables from the DST-3000 receiver to your VCR before the
signal reaches the TV, you may experience a distorted picture if you attempt to
record a copy-protected program. These programs are identified by a "Can't
Tape" symbol in the banner area of the screen. If this occurs, simply stop the
recording process and your picture will automatically correct itself.
