Receiver Description and Installation
Receiver Back Panel
The receiver connections on the back panel are arranged in three groups:
TV1 Connections - Use these connections with your TV.
TV2 Connections - Do not try to use these connections with your TV.
Other Connections - Use these connections with the dish antenna, UHF
remote-control antenna, and telephone line.
TV1 Connections
The following connections provide the menu displays and programming to your
TV.
TV CH 3–4 Out
The TV CH 3–4 connection provides good quality video and
mono (non-stereo) audio to your nearby TV. Use a coaxial
cable to make this connection. The
TV CH 3–4 connection is
color-coded white.
RCA Out
The RCA audio/video outputs provide high-quality picture and full
stereo sound to your nearby TV (if your TV has these connections).
Use RCA-type cables to make this connection. If the TV has only
one (monophonic) input for this type of audio, connect it to the right
(R) phono-plug audio output port on back of the satellite receiver.
S-Video Out
The S-VIDEO connection provides the highest quality standard-
definition video signal to your nearby TV (if your TV has this
input connection). Use an S-Video cable to make the connection.
If you use this back panel output for video between the receiver
and your TV, you must still connect the audio using the
PHONO
(RCA) A
UDIO LEFT/RIGHT OUTPUTS and Phono Plug (RCA-type)
cables, as shown above.
Tip: The six coaxial
connections on the
back of your
receiver are color
coded to make the
connectors easy to
identify. Inside the
front cover of this
guide are stickers
that are color
coded the same
way as the coaxial
connections. See
the installation
instructions
starting on page 24
for information on
how to use the
stickers that go on
the coaxial cables.
