Cable Box Connections
Some cable services require the use of a cable box to decode pre-
mium channels and pay-per-view. Using the Loop Out to Decoder
connection option, and programming your remote, you can con-
nect your cable box so that you only need your MBR remote to
tune to premium and non-premium channels. By connecting a
cable box directly to your TV, as shown to the LOOP OUT, you
make the cable box another available channel tuning source using
your remote.
Locate the Antenna/Cable 2 jack on the
1
back of your TV. Connect the cable that
runs from the wall directly to the jack.
Now find the Loop Out jack.
Connect the cable from this jack to the
2
Input jack on the back of your cable box.
Locate the Output jack on the back of
3
your cable box. Connect this to the
Antenna/Cable 1 jack on the back of your
TV.
To view the premium stations, press the
4
TV button on your remote and select the
other Cable source (Ant/Cable 1). Then
tune the channel number on your cable
box for HBO, CINEMAX, SHOWTIME, etc.
To view non-premium channels press the TV
button and select Ant/Cable 2. Then run EZ
Scan to find all available channels and
store them in memory.
This can be combined with any other
equipment you may want to hook up, see
following pages. Connect cable service
wire directly to the TV, loop out from the
TV, then to the cable box. From there, the
cable box output connects to the next
device in the connection series, until the
last device, which connects back to the
Antenna/Cable 1 jack on the TV.
