Connecting to a TV/Monitor and Antenna
If an antenna cable is plugged into your TV (or if you have cable TV), use a Dreamcast RF unit (sold
separately).

1. Unplug the antenna cable from the TV, and

plug it into the RF unit -ANT IN- terminal.

2. Plug the RF unit -TV OUT- cable into the TV.
3. Plug the RF unit -A/V IN- cable into the AV

terminal on the back of the Dreamcast.

If your television is connected to a VCR, check to
see if your VCR has audio/video input terminals to
which you can connect the supplied stereo AV
cable.
