You cannot connect both a satellite receiver and a
digital cable box.
You may need to purchase an audio cable and an
S-video cable for this hookup.
If possible, you should have connected your VCR
to your TV with an S-Video cable. It will allow you
to watch the satellite video signal on your TV even
when the VCR is off if you set the Rear S-through
in the S-VHS Set-Up menu to ON.
If you connect your VCR to your TV with a
standard video cable, you will have to turn the
VCR on to watch the video signal from the
satellite receiver. You will be able to hear the
audio signal from your satellite receiver both when
the VCR is on and off.
When you connect a satellite receiver to the
S-video input on the back of the VCR, you have to
set the Rear S-input in the S-VHS Set-Up menu to
ON.
Refer to your Satellite Receiver Owner’s Guide
for Satellite dish to Satellite receiver connections,
as well as other possible video connections to
your TV.
