He# on
combining
your
Entertainment
Machine
with more
equipment.
There aM a number of ways you can choose to integrate
your Entertainment
Machine with the rest of your equip-
ment. Chanhels can be changed using the television,
the VCR, or the cable box, with advantages to each.
USING
TIIE TELEVISION
AS THE TUNER preserves all your channel labels (not available on some models). It also
reduces the number of keys on the remote control you need to worry about. (One device, one remote to [earn.)
USING
THE VCR AS THE TUNER
has the advantage of simplifying
the recording
process. If the VCR is tuned to
channel
seven, then the VCR will record channe[ seven.
USING
THE CABLE
BOX (if you have one) to change the stations
sometimes has an advantage,
:oo, especia[ly if
your cable provider
requires you to use their cable box to descramble their
stations.
Based on the advantages listed above, decide what
device you want to use as the tuner.
Connect the antenna
or cable source to the input
of your tuner. If you chose your television
as the
tuner, then you're done. Go watch your
Entertainment
Machine.
Connect the output
of your tuner to the input of the
next device.
If you used A/V cables for step 3, set the "next
device" to Video input.
If you used an RF coaxiaL
cable in step 3, then tune the "next device" to
match the output
channel of your tuner (usually
channel 3 or 4).
Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you reach your
Entertainment
Machine. Then enjoy!
