combining

your

Entertainment

Machine

with more

equipment.

There aM a number of ways you can choose to integrate your Entertainment Machine with the rest of your equip-

ment. Chanhels can be changed using the television, the VCR, or the cable box, with advantages to each.

USING TIIE TELEVISION AS THE TUNER preserves all your channel labels (not available on some models). It also

reduces the number of keys on the remote control you need to worry about. (One device, one remote to [earn.)

USING THE VCR AS THE TUNER has the advantage of simplifying the recording process. If the VCRis tuned to

channel seven, then the VCRwill record channe[ seven.

USING THE CABLE BOX (if you have one) to change the stations sometimes has an advantage, :oo, especia[ly if

your cable provider requires you to use their cable box to descramble their stations.

Based on the advantages listed above, decide what

device you want to use as the tuner.

Connect the antenna or cable source to the input

of your tuner. If you chose your television as the

tuner, then you're done. Go watch your

Entertainment Machine.

Connect the output of your tuner to the input of the

next device.

If you used A/V cables for step 3, set the "next

device" to Video input. If you used an RF coaxiaL

cable in step 3, then tune the "next device" to

match the output channel of your tuner (usually

channel 3 or 4).

Repeat steps 3 and 4 until you reach your

Entertainment Machine. Then enjoy!
