24 Installation Before You Begin NOTE! The clear protective film on the DCP501 display must be removed and transferred to the inside back cover of your DCP501 Home Theater System User Guide. The Unit Address and Serial Number found on the protective film is required for activation of your DCP501 cable TV receiver by your cable TV service provider.
Installation 25 Recording Your Connections Use the diagram in Figure 8 to record your cable connections from the rear panel. You can use this diagram later to reconnect your system if you move the equipment or add new equipment.

26 Installation Connecting Your TV Before connecting your TV to the DCP501, you must determine which type of video connection to use. The DCP501 features two types of video outputs: S-video and video (also referred to as composite video). S-video is the highest quality video available on the DCP501. If your TV does not offer S-video, use the VIDEO connections.
Installation 27 Video To connect your DCP501 to a TV that is not S-video capable: Figure 10 Composite video connections to your TV DCP501 MODEL NO.: DCP 501 À LA PLUIE NI À L’HUM IDITE”. TV INPUT S-VIDEO Cable(s) you will need: VIDEO CABLE/ ANTENNA IN AUDIO LEFT AUDIO RIGHT Video When connecting the video path, never connect composite video and S-Video together. Because certain types of electronics equipment will not support both video inputs simultaneously, use only one connection path.
28 Installation Connecting to Cable TV The DCP501 operates only with TVs with composite video or S-video capabilities. The DCP501 contains no RF output, so it will not function properly with older models of TVs with only RF input. Do not disconnect the cable connection between the RF In and To RF In ports. Removal of this cable could disrupt operation of the DCP501. IMPORTANT! The digital cable feature of your Motorola DCP501 can be activated only in certain cable systems throughout North America.
