Choosing a VCR Connection
There are several different ways to connect your VCR, depending
on whether or not you have cable service, and if you have a cable
box, and whether some of the channels are scrambled... well, you
get the picture.
Three connections are described in this section and one of them
should provide you with a VCR connection that works.
• TV with RF Jack Only
• TV with Audio/Video Jacks
• TV with Audio/Video Jacks and Cable Box to Unscramble
Pay Channels Only
If you need to connect additional components not shown in the
diagrams here (and are unsure of how to connect them), refer to
the instruction manual that came with that particular
component.
Advantages of Audio/Video Cable
Connections
Using a simple coaxial cable connection gives you good picture
quality. If your television has AUDIO/VIDEO jacks though, it is
highly recommended that you use them to get even better
picture quality and Hi-Fi stereo sound when recording and
playing back videotapes. These connections give you more
convenient operation by not having to share the TV’s
antenna signal. If you are having a hard time understanding the
TV’s Video Input Channel, refer to page 68 for more information.
