Connections for an HDTV and VCR
To use the set-top with an HDTV, you must make one of the following connections to view the HD
content. In addition, you can make connections to a digital or analog VCR to record to a VCR tape.
Refer to your TV and VCR user’s guides and the cabling diagrams in this guide for more detailed
connection information.
Note: The labeling on your set-top may vary slightly.
Some HDTVs have a High-DeÞ nition Multimedia
Interface (HDMI) connector. The HDMI connector
provides both a digital video and audio connection. See
the connection diagram on page 12 for an example.

one of these HDTVs, you need an RGB adapter, and
you will need to connect a separate audio connection.
Check with your service provider for information about
acquiring an RGB adapter, or you can purchase the
adapter at your local electronics supplier.
