RF Modulator DVD TV Hookup Diagram How to connect a DVD Player and VCR to a TV without AV inputs in the UK Do you have a TV with only a RF input? Do you want to hookup a DVD player to the TV? Yes, it can be done by using a device called an RF modulator. Even though the DVD player has only SCART or RCA outputs, you can use the RF modulator to convert the input signals to a RF output signal your TV can recognize. The RF modulator has a SCART and/or RCA input which is used by the DVD player and a RF output which is connected to the TV. The RF Modulator allows equipment with SCART or phono outputs to plug in to a TV or aerial socket. • Aerial loop-through • SCART and phono inputs • Ideal for DVDs, digital TV boxes without RF/aerial sockets and for TVs without a Scart socket • Mains powered Connect any composite video device, such as a CCTV camera or camcorder to the aerial socket of a TV. Some modulators allow you to select the RF channel with DIP switches. Composite video and stereo audio inputs are via phono (RCA) sockets or the SCART socket. An RF input is provided as well as an output, allowing loop-through connection, so that the output of the modulator can be added into an existing aerial distribution network. No Scart input on your old TV? - No problem. The RF Modulator takes the signal from your scart-only device (such as DVD Player) and converts it to the antenna (RF aerial) output required by older TVs without scart sockets. You existing aerial connection also plugs into the RF Modulator so there is no need to lose your normal terrestrial TV reception.

Setting the Output TV channel 21 to 69  OFF = 0 and ON = 1 Set switches 1 through 6 For example UHF channel 69 set switches 1 1 0 0 0 0 For example UHF channel 45 set switches 0 1 1 0 0 0 Video and Audio Cable Connections 1) Cable to provide TV signals to RF input in VCR. 2) Cable to pass TV signals thru RF modulator to TV. 3) RF cable for TV RF input. 4) SCART cable to connect DVD player to RF modulator. You can watch TV normally until you want to watch a DVD at which time the RF modulator will convert the SCART signals to RF and pass to the TV. See Audio Video Connections for explanation of cables. RF Input If your TV only has an RF input and your DVD player or other device does not have an RF output, you can connect using an RF Modulator, which can be purchased at most electronics stores. The RF modulator will convert composite video and 2-channel stereo audio to RF on your old TV. Video and one-channel (mono) audio are carried combined on this cable.

Freeview is the UK name given to the Digital Terrestrial Television network used to provide free-to-air digital TV to your home. Freeview channels include a range from BBC1 all the way to Freeview radio channels and HD channel support. Freeview channels are received on DVB-T and DVB-T2 receivers, where DVB-T2 is the HD channel variant. The signals are broadcast as electromagnetic waves, sent out to local area relay towers, and finally contact with home rooftop aerials. These signals are decoded by digital Freeview TVs or Freeview Set Top Boxes. What is Freesat TV?  Freesat is the name given to the satellite TV network that is free-to-air. This includes a variety of channels, accessed through a Freesat set top box or dedicated provider such as a Sky TV sat box. Unlike Digital Terrestrial Television which uses relays and grounded aerials to transmit the electromagnetic waves across the earth, satellite TV is not terrestrial at all. This is the largest difference between the two TV systems. Satellite TV services are broadcast out into space. The satellites orbiting earth receive these signals and take a similar role of the DTTV relays. The satellites can send the signals back down to earth directly to rooftop Satellite dishes connected to Satellite TVs or Set Top Boxes.
