Advanced Operations (Cable Box Hookups)
Check all the TV and VCR functions. If you don't get all the functions you want,
proceed with Option 3.
Option 3 -- Some Channels Scrambled
This hookup requires three coaxial jumpers with connectors, a 1-into-2 splitter, and an
A-or-B switch box.
1. Disconnect the cable from the cable box and attach it to the input line of the 1-into-2
splitter.
2. Using a coaxial jumper, reconnect one of the splitter outputs to the cable box's input
that you just freed up.
3. Using a second coaxial jumper, connect the other splitter output to the A of the A-or-
B switch.
4. Using the cable box output line, connect the cable box receptacle to the B of the A-
or-B switch.
5. Using a third coaxial jumper, connect the output of the A-or-B switch to the IN
FROM ANT of the VCR.
6. Take the coaxial cable that is still connected to the television and hook it to the OUT
TO TV of the VCR.
Some Channels Scrambled Cable Box Hookup
This setup lets you switch between the two configurations in Options 1 and 2. Check
all the TV and VCR functions. If you still don't get the functions you want, proceed with
Option 4.
Option 4
If none of the preceding hookups work, check with your cable company. You may
need to purchase a video switching system from your local electronics or video
retailer. This will easily handle most hookup problems.

Remote Control of the Cable Converter

If you have a cable converter, you will probably want to program your VCR's remote
control so you can easily change channels. The process is the same as for
programming the remote to operate your TV. For additional details, see page 59.
Set VCR/CATV/TV switch to CATV and press the number of your brand of cable box
(shown in the chart).
Follow same steps in "Programming the Remote Control for TV" on page 59.
