Connections for a VCR or DVD Recorder
When using the set-top with a VCR or DVD recorder, you must make one of the
following connections to view content.
Although all connections provide you with quality service, we list the connections in our
recommended order.
Notes:
• The labeling on your set-top, VCR, or DVD recorder may vary slightly from the
illustrations shown below.
• Some cables shown in the connection diagrams may not be included with this set-top.
Connecting an Over-the-Air Converter Box
You can connect an over-the-air converter box directly to your TV to receive certain local
channels, but do not connect the over-the-air converter box directly to your set-top.
For VCRs or DVD recorders with Video
In and Left and Right audio connectors,
use the SD Video and the SD Audio
connectors (Left and Right) on the set-top.
See the connection diagram on page 24
for an example.
