How to connect a digital-to-analog converter
box to your TiVo
Use these instructions if:
· you get your TV programming through an antenna
· you have a TiVo Series2 DVR
As of February 2009, all over-the-air TV signals will change from analog to
digital. Your existing antenna will continue to receive the digital TV signals, but

analog format your TV can display.
These instructions will help you connect the converter box to your
TiVo Series2 DVR so you can continue enjoying your favorite TV programs.
