You can use a standard splitter in reverse for this hookup if you only have one of the sources (DTV box or satellite box) powered on at a time. Otherwise you could use a A/B switch. Components: o Digital Satellite TV Service o Analog TV with VHF/UHF antenna input. o Satellite TV box o DTV Converter box o RF Modulator o Combo DVD/VCR o RF signal splitter or A/B switch o Audio/Video RCA cables. o RF coaxial cables (RG-6). TV • Analog TV older model. • built-in speaker • RF input for antenna/cable signals. Connectors Inputs RF Antenna - (Coaxial) Outputs Audio/Video Composite - x1 (RCA) RF (TV Out) - (Coaxial) Remote Control Yes Power Requirements 120VAC, 60Hz  Hook up DIAGRAM - Analog TV, Digital TV converter box, satellite receiver, RF Modulator, combo DVD/VCR  Cables Connections and explanation: Digital Satellite TV service and over-the-air antenna are used to receive TV signals. 1. Connect a coaxial RF cable from the RF output on the satellite box and the DTV box to splitter. 2. Connect a coaxial RF cable from the output of the splitter to VCR RF input. 3. Connect a coaxial RF cable from VCR RF output to RF Modulator. 4. Connect a coaxial cable from RF Modulator to TV VHF input. 5. Connect RCA cables from common output on VCR/DVD to RF Modulator.  A/B Switch If your satellite receiver does not offer an RF output, then use the yellow, white, red RCA outputs and connect these cables to the VCR yellow, white, red inputs. Be sure to select the proper inputs on the VCR. In this case, you do not need the splitter. Connect DTV converter box directly to VCR RF input. Why would you want this configuration? o To view TV shows including satellite and over-the-air local channels. o To record TV shows from both sources. What settings do you need for this configuration? The satellite box and the DTV box should be setup to output on channel 3 (or 4). The VCR should be set to record channel 3 (or 4). The RF Modulator should be set accordingly to output on channel 3 (or 4) and the TV should be set to channel 3 (or 4). The VCR should be set to output on channel 3 (or 4). Better video from Satellite receiver using RCA A/V This configuration also eliminates the RF splitter  Tune TV to channel 3 (or 4) Select correct input on Combo unit Select TV channel on DTV box What if my Combo unit does not have a tuner? In this case you would connect the DTV box RCA outputs to the Combo unit RCA inputs and select the line input. To solve the issue of both the DTV box and the satellite receiver connecting to the same RCA inputs on the Combo unit, use a RCA splitter cable or a RCA switch box.  RCA splitter cable - 1, 2 or 3 inputs, 1 output  RCA Switch box - 1, 2 or 3 RCA inputs and 1 RCA output Search Columbia ISA See more... • Input Select on TV and other devices • Cable hookup digital cable and TV • Audio Video Connections and cables • HDMI Versions • HDTV hookup options • HDTV basic setup • See over 100 hookup diagrams o Car Insurance Companies - free quotes Columbia ISA Audio Video Empowering consumers thru information. columbiaisa@yahoo.com |
