Connecting a Stereo TV, VCR, and DVD
This cable configuration may be used for a mono or stereo VCR,
because the VCR audio and video jacks are not used.
If your TV supports multiple sets of video and audio inputs (such as
VID1, VID2, etc.), see the diagram Connecting a Stereo TV and Stereo
VCR to connect your DCT*, VCR and TV. When you have completed
those connections, refer to the diagram illustrated here to connect your
DVD to your TV.

2 Connect an RF coaxial cable to the TO TV/VCR connector on the

connectors on the stereo TV and the
