CABLE / VCR / ANTENNA / AV CONNECTIONS (VIDEO1)

1 Connect a cable from the Cable Service wall plate to the “ANT In” terminal on the VCR.

2 Connect an antenna to the ANT terminal on the DTV.

3 Connect your VCR to the VIDEO1 jacks on the DTV, as shown here, matching connector colors to jack colors.

You can record an analog Cable channel and watch off-air analog or digital channels, when available.
