CONNECTIONS
Follow these steps to connect your RF Modulator.
1. If your video source is stereo, plug the connectors on
one end of a stereo A/V cable into the video and audio
input jacks on the RF Modulator. Plug the connectors
on the cable’s other end into to video and audio output
jacks on the video source, using the color coding on
the connectors as a guide.
If your video source is monaural, plug the connectors on
one end of an A/V cable into the video and audio input
jacks on the RF Modulator (using the AUDIO L jack). Plug
the cable’s other ends into the video and audio jacks on
the video source. Connect the 75-ohm coaxial cables to
the RF Modulator following these guidelines:
