Step 1: Basic Recorder Connections
Connecting the antenna
cables
These connections enable you to watch
and record TV programmes using the
recorder. If the antenna signal is
connected via a VCR, Cable Box or
Satellite Receiver, ensure that these
devices are turned on in order to watch
or record the cable programmes.

If you want to connect to a VCR
and/or Cable Box/Satellite Receiver,
see the chapter “Step 2 : Optional
Connections” for the complete
connections to your TV.
A
Connect the existing Antenna/Cable TV
signal (or from the Cable Box/Satellite
Receiver {RF OUT or TO TV}) to the
ANTENNA-IN
socket on the
recorder.
B
Use the supplied RF coaxial cable to
connect TV-OUT socket on the
recorder to the antenna input socket on
your TV (VHF/UHF RF IN).
Helpful Hint:
– Depending on how you have currently
connected your TV channel (directly from an
off-air antenna or Cable box or VCR), you
will have to disconnect some of the cables
before you make the above connection.
TIPS: Before making or changing any connections, make sure that all the devices are disconnected
from the power outlet.
