Connecting your RADEON 8500/RADEON
7500 to a TV or a VCR
To connect your graphics card to a television or a VCR, use an
S-Video cable from your RADEON 8500/RADEON 7500 to the
television (or VCR). However, most televisions (and VCRs)
have a Composite video input, in which case you can use the
supplied S-Video to Composite video adapter. If your television
has cable input only, which is the case on older units, you can
connect your RADEON 8500/RADEON 7500 to your
television through your VCR or an RF modulator (available in
most electronics stores).

cable to your graphics card and the other to your television
(or VCR). See "Connecting your ATI RADEON
