Setup 3: Watching One Channel While Recording Another
3
1. Connect the RF Coaxial cable coming out of the wall to the RF In connector on the
Pioneer DVD Recorder with TiVo.
2. Connect an RF Coaxial cable from the RF Bypass Out connector on the Recorder to
the Antenna/RF In connector on the TV.
3. Connect a Composite A/V cable from the Audio/Video Output 1 connectors on the
Recorder to the Audio/Video Input connectors on the TV.
4. Connect a phone line (see page 8 for help).
5. Plug in all power cords.
6. Turn on your TV. If you see the Welcome screen, you’re ready for the next step,
below. If not, you need to find the correct input settings by pressing the Input, Source,
or TV/Video button on your TV’s remote control until you see the Welcome screen.
For more help, see page 42.
7. Once you see the Welcome screen, the last step is to complete Guided Setup (see the
User’s Guide for details). You must complete Guided Setup before you can play and
record DVDs.
To watch one channel while the Recorder records another, press the Input, Source, or TV/
Video button on your TV to select the Antenna/RF In input. You should see live TV
instead of TiVo screens. Use your TV’s remote to change the channel. Keep in mind that
there is no TiVo service functionality on any video signal coming from the Recorder’s
RF Bypass Out jack, so you will not be able to pause or rewind live TV while you are
watching one channel and recording another.
To watch video from your Recorder again: First, press the TiVo button so that the
Recorder displays TiVo Central
®
. Then press the Input, Source, or TV/Video button on
your TV until you see TiVo Central.
You can also watch one channel
while recording another if you have
a cable box. In step 1, connect an RF
Coaxial cable from your cable box to the
RF In connector on the Recorder. Then,
continue with step 2.
Keep in mind that the RF Coaxial cable
that connects from the Recorder’s
RF Bypass Out to your TV carries only your
basic cable channels. Also, you will not
have TiVo service functionality on those
channels.
