Very Good Connection

Using A/V jacks and cables to connect to the TV,
RF coaxial cables to connect the VCR
This connection provides better picture quality than RF coaxial cables and is
recommended for use with TVs that do not have S-Video input jacks.
What you will need (see page 6 for descriptions of these cables):
• Two (2) RF coaxial cables
• Three (3) Audio/Video cables
• One (1) telephone line cord
• Coaxial cable lines fed from a digital satellite antenna and a standard TV
antenna (or cable line)
Making the Connection
Cable or
Off-air
Antenna 1. Connect the satellite dish antenna feed (RG-6 coaxial cable) to the
SATELLITE IN jack on the satellite receiver.
CH3
2. Connect one end of an RF coaxial cable to the OUT TO TV jack on the
CH4
satellite receiver, and the other end to the antenna input jack on the
VCR.
Note: If your VCR has A/V input jacks, you can use A/V cables to connect the
satellite receiver's second set of A/V output jacks to the A/V jacks of the VCR
instead of using the RF coaxial cable.
3. Connect one end of an RF coaxial cable to the antenna output jack on
the VCR, and the other end to the TV's antenna input jack.
4. Connect the cable or off-air antenna feed (RF coaxial cable) to the IN
FROM ANT jack on the satellite receiver.
5. Connect one end of the supplied telephone line cord to the PHONE JACK
on the back of the satellite receiver, and the other end to an RJ11-type
modular phone jack (the most common type of phone jack).
6. Connect the ends of the supplied A/V cables to the satellite receiver's
AUDIO and VIDEO jacks, and the other ends to the corresponding AUDIO
and VIDEO input jacks on the TV.
Notes: Make sure you connect jacks and cables corresponding to their labels.
For example, AUDIO R output on the digital satellite receiver should be
connected to AUDIO R input on the TV, VIDEO out to VIDEO in, etc.
If your TV only has one audio input jack, use the satellite receiver's AUDIO L
jack to make the connection.
