Step 1: Basic Recorder Connections
Connecting the antenna 
cables
These connections enable you to watch
and record TV programs using this 
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 programs.
  If your TV is equipped with an 
Antenna In (RF IN) jack only
see  “Step 2: Optional connections – TV 
has only an antenna input jack” for the 
complete connection to your TV.
  If you want to connect to a VCR 
and/or Cable Box/Satellite Receiver
see “Step 2: Optional connections” for 
the complete connection 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 
 jack on the 
recorder.
B
 Use the supplied RF coaxial cable to 
connect the TV-OUT 
 jack on the 
recorder to the antenna input jack 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.
