VCR and Cable Box
Use this hookup if:
Your cable TV company scrambles some channels, but not all of them 
(pay channels vs. regular cable channels) and you need to use a cable 
box.
With this setup you can:
Use the TV’s remote control to change channels on your cable box 
when the signal is scrambled. To program your Sony remote control to 
operate your cable box, see “Programming the Remote Control” on 
page 44.
Use the TV’s remote control to change channels on your TV when the 
signal is not scrambled. Your TV’s tuner provides a better picture 
quality than the output of your cable box.
Disconnect all power sources before making any connections.
1
Connect the CATV cable to the single (input) jack of the splitter.
2
Use a coaxial cable to connect one of the splitter’s two output jacks to 
the TV’s CABLE jack.
3
Use a coaxial cable to connect the splitter’s other output jack to the 
cable box’s input jack.
4
Use a coaxial cable to connect the cable box’s output jack to the VCR’s 
RF input jack.
5
Use an A/V cable to connect the cable box’s A/V output jacks to the 
TV’s A/V input jacks.
6
Use an A/V and S VIDEO cables to connect the VCR’s AUDIO and 
S VIDEO OUT jacks to the TV’s AUDIO and S VIDEO IN input 
jacks.
7
Before connecting a 
cable box, see “Using 
To view scrambled channels, tune the TV to the channel the cable box is 
set to (usually channel 3 or 4) and then use the cable box to switch 
channels.
