Sony SVR-2000 Setup Manual page 25

Use this example if you have a satellite set-top box and VCR, no Serial Control jack,
and your satellite set-top box uses S-Video cables.
1 Connect the SVR Recorder to your satellite box.
Since you use a satellite set-top box to receive your television signal, the SVR
Recorder needs to be able to change channels on your box in order to record
shows and display live TV.
Connect the SVR Recorder to the infrared (IR) receiver of your satellite set-top
box using the IR Control cable (supplied). Start by plugging the IR Control cable
into the Cntrl Out IR jack on the back of the SVR Recorder. Next, locate the IR
receiver on your satellite set-top box – it's usually a small dark red window or
button on the front of the box.
Place the IR Emitter (from the IR Control cable) on top of the satellite set-top box,
sticking out slightly. The IR Emitter has an adhesive strip so you can adhere it to
the set-top box. If it is not possible to stick the IR Emitter directly onto the
window, place it in front of or as close as possible to the window.
2 Connect your program source/video input to the SVR Recorder.
Disconnect any cables that you have connecting your satellite set-top box to your
VCR and/or TV. Use the S-Video cable (supplied) to connect the S-Video Out of
your satellite set-top box to the S-Video input on the back of the SVR Recorder.
You must also use the left (white) and right (red) Audio/Video cables to connect
the Audio Out on your satellite set-top box to the Audio In on the back of the SVR
Recorder, as illustrated here.
