Tuning Your Tv And Vcr To Your Set-Top - Pace DC511P Operator's Manual

Tuning your TV and VCR to your set-top

The signal at the RF output of your set-top (labeled "TO TV") is on either channel 3 or channel 4,
depending on where you live. For you to be able to watch or record the programs from this output,
your TV and VCR (or other equipment) must be tuned to the correct channel. The installer will
probably have done this tuning for you. However, if you get a new TV or VCR, or if you need to tune
for any other reason, carry out the following steps.
1. Contact your cable operator to find out the correct channel for your location (3 or 4).
This is your set-top's RF output channel.
2. Make sure that all of the equipment, including your set-top, is turned on.
Make sure that you have NOT selected a baseband input at your TV.
Make sure that the RF-bypass feature is turned off (BYPASS is NOT lighted on the front panel).
3. Switch the TV/VCR switch on your VCR to "TV".
4. Tune your TV to your set-top's RF output channel (3 or 4, as identified by your cable operator).
If you do not know how to do this, consult the manual that came with your TV.
You should now be able to see on your TV a program that is coming from your set-top. If you cannot
see a program, check that the RF coaxial cables are securely and correctly connected (as shown on
page 11). If there is still a problem, check with your cable operator that you are using the correct RF
output channel (either 3 or 4).
5. When you can see a home-terminal program on your TV, switch the TV/VCR switch on your
VCR to "VCR".
If you can still see the picture on your TV, everything is tuned correctly.
If the picture disappears, carry out the following final step (please see the next page).
