Connecting Satellite TV (SAT) Components

Before making or changing the connections, switch off the power and disconnect the power cord from
the AC outlet.
Hook up the video signal with either component video, S video, or composite video cords, depending on
how you connected the receiver to your TV (see page 15).
For the audio signal, in order to use digital soundtracks broadcast you must hook up a digital input. Use
either a coaxial or optical cable, it doesn't matter which (see page 21). We recommend hooking up your
audio with analog cables as well (see below).
*The arrows indicate the direction of the TV signal.
