Pay-TV Decoder
This device decodes specially encoded programmes (such as the
German Premiere programme) for display on the screen. For
connection of such a decoder, you will need a EURO (SCART) cable
with all 25 pins assigned.
If you also want to record Pay-TV programmes on a video recorder,
we recommend connecting the decoder directly to the video recor-
der. If this is not possible, the decoder can be connected to the
SCART socket of the TV set.
For further details please contact your dealer or refer to the deco-
der documentation.
Connecting a Pay-TV decoder to the TV set via the aerial socket
Connect the aerial cable as shown in the picture.
Connecting a decoder to the TV set via the EORO socket
If your decoder has a EURO connector, you can receive program-
mes with a better picture quality if you connect the decoder via a
EURO cable to the SCART socket. Only the SCART socket may be
used in this case!
Connecting a video recorder (VTR)
It is not possible to connect an S-VHS device to the EURO socket.
Connect the aerial cable as shown in the picture. Again, we recom-
mend connecting the video recorder via a EURO cable to the SCART
socket in order to obtain better-quality pictures.
Finding and storing the VTR test signal
• Connect the aerial output of your video recorder via the aerial
cable to the aerial socket of your TV set.
• Insert a recorded cartridge into the video recorder.
• Switch the video recorder to playback mode or activate the test
signal of the video recorder. On most video recorders, the test
signal is generated on a standard channel in the range Ch 30 to
Ch 40 (see the User’s Manual for the video recorder).
You can connect various AV devices to
your TV set.
The picture below shows how these
devices are connected.
