Connections Antenna connections If you are using an antenna system, follow these instructions. If you are a cable (CATV) subscriber, skip ahead to page 16 for the proper connections. Antenna to DVD/VCR connection The DVD/VCR must be connected “between” the antenna and the TV. First, disconnect the antenna from the TV and connect it to the DVD/VCR. Then connect the DVD/VCR to the TV. Below are 3 common methods of connecting an antenna system to a DVD/VCR.
DVD/VCR to TV connection After you have connected the antenna to the DVD/VCR, you must connect the DVD/VCR to the TV. Below are 3 common methods of connecting your DVD/VCR to a TV. Find the type of TV you are using and follow the connection diagram. This DVD/VCR has a single 75 ohm output for connection to a TV. If your TV has separate VHF and UHF antenna inputs (numbers 2 and 3 below), use a splitter to connect the DVD/VCR to the TV for VHF and UHF reception.
Connections CATV (CABLE TV) connections Many cable companies offer services permitting reception of extra channels including pay or subscription channels. This DVD/VCR has an extended tuning range and can be tuned to most cable channels without using a cable company supplied converter box, except for those premium channels which are intentionally scrambled. If you subscribe to a premium channel which is scrambled, you must have a descrambler box for proper reception.
IMPORTANT: Make sure the TV/CATV menu option is set to the “CATV” mode. This DVD/VCR cannot receive scrambled programs since it does not contain a descrambler. In order to receive scrambled programs, your existing descrambler must be used. Descrambler boxes are available from cable companies. Consult your local cable company for more information concerning connection to their descrambler equipment. There are many ways to connect your DVD/VCR to a cable system. Below are six common methods of connection.
Connections Connecting to a TV Connect the DVD/VCR to your TV. Note: This method transports VHS and DVD-video signals. For enhanced DVD-video performance, we recommend you also connect the S-video or ColorStream® component video outputs to your TV/monitor. (See page 19.
Note: The S-video output and component video output transports the DVD-video signal exclusively and will deliver enhanced DVD video picture performance. Connecting to an audio system and TV equipped with S-video input/component video inputs Connections Signal flow (white) To ANALOG AUDIO OUT (red) To SVIDEO OUT To PR/CR VIDEO OUT To PB/CB VIDEO OUT When you make this connection, set the S-VIDEO/ COMPONENT Video selector switch to the desired position.
Connections Connecting to optional equipment You can enjoy high quality dynamic sounds of DVD video discs or audio CDs by connecting the DVD/VCR to optional audio equipment. For connection to your TV, see “Connecting to a TV” 18 19 .
Warning When playing DTS-encoded discs (audio CDs), excessive noise may be output from the analog stereo jacks. To avoid possible damage to the audio system, you should take proper precautions when the ANALOG AUDIO OUT (L/R) jacks of the DVD/VCR are connected to an amplification system. To enjoy DTS Digital Surround™ playback, an external 5.1 channel DTS Digital Surround™ decoder system must be connected to the BITSTREAM/PCM AUDIO OUT jack of the DVD/VCR.
