CONNECTIONS

Choosing a VCR Connection

There are several different ways to connect your VCR,
depending on whether or not you have cable service, and if you
have a cable box, and whether some of the channels are
scrambled, and maybe you have a satellite receiver along with
cable (but no cable box), or a satellite receiver and no cable
or...well, you get the pictur e.
Three connections are described in this section and one of them
should provide you with a VCR connection that works.
• TV with RF jack only
• TV with audio/video jacks
• TV with audio/video jacks and cable box to unscramble pay
channels only
If you need to connect additional components not shown in the
diagrams here (and are unsure of how to connect them), refer to
the instruction manual that came with that particular
component.
Advantages of Audio/Video Cable Connections
Using a simple coaxial cable connection gives you good picture
quality. If your television has audio/video jacks, I highly
recommend using them to get even better picture quality and
mono sound when recording and playing back videotapes.
These connections give you more convenient operation by not
having to share the TV's antenna signal.

Don't Forget About the Auto TV/VCR Feature

The TV/VCR switch controls whether the picture signal is coming
from the VCR or the TV .
Set the Auto TV/VCR feature to ON when you use only the RF IN
(FROM ANT.) and OUT (TO TV) connections and OFF when using
the AUDIO/VIDEO OUT jacks—so your TV signal is not
interrupted when the VCR is turned on.
