Basic connections
If you are using an antenna system, follow these instructions. If you are a cable (CATV) subscriber, skip
ahead to page 14 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. Find the type of antenna system you are using and follow the connection
diagram.
Combination VHF/UHF Antenna with 75 ohm Coaxial Cable
1
Combination VHF/UHF Antenna with 300 ohm Twin Lead (Flat) Wire
2
Separate VHF and UHF Antennas
3
VHF
NOTE:
If both VHF and UHF antennas have 300 ohm twin lead (flat) wires, use a combiner having two 300
ohm inputs and one 75 ohm output.
NOTES: • A clear picture will not be obtained by the DVD/VCR unless the antenna signal is good. Connect the
antenna to the DVD/VCR properly.
• For better quality recording, an indoor antenna or a telescopic antenna is not recommended. The use of
an outdoor type antenna is required.
• If you are not sure about the connection, please refer to qualified service personnel.
