the remote control are pressed or to indicate signal strength when you are positioning
your dish. If you use Digital Audio Out, you will not hear these tones.
10. Satellite In 2: If you have a Dual LNB satellite dish, you can connect the second
satellite cable from your wall to the Satellite In 2 jack. Connecting both Satellite In 1
and Satellite In 2, and completing the required steps in Satellite Setup, allows you to
record two programs at the same time (dual tuner).
11. Satellite In 1: Connect the satellite cable from your wall to the Satellite In 1 jack. You
will not be able to watch DIRECTV
®
channels if you do not make this connection.
12. Channel 3/4 Switch: If you use RF Out, set the output to channel 3 or 4 using this
switch. To get the best picture, select the channel that is not occupied by a local
broadcast channel. For example, if there is a local broadcast station on channel 4,
select channel 3 for the output on the DVR. You need to set your television to this
channel (3 or 4) in order to view programs through the DVR.
13. RF Out: If your TV only has RF In, connect the DVR to your TV’s RF In using the
coaxial RF cable (supplied). The RF In jack on your TV may not be labeled “RF In;” it
may be labeled “VHF/UHF In” or “Antenna/Cable In” instead. If your TV has
multiple inputs and you can use the DVR’s S-Video Output or Composite Video
Output, don’t use this jack.
14. RF In: If you use an antenna, and your TV has only one input, connect your antenna to
the DVR using your existing coaxial RF cable (the one coming out of the wall). If your
TV has multiple inputs, you can ignore this jack and connect your antenna directly to
your TV instead. You will NOT be able to you to use DIRECTV and DVR functions
while watching antenna or cable channels, even if you connect your antenna or cable
directly to your DVR.
