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.
