CONNECTING THE EQUIPMENT
On the following pages are diagrams that show you how to connect typical
equipment (HDTV, VCR, DVD player and home theater receiver) to the set-top.
The connected items are shown individually and then in combination (see the
tables, right). Some of the connections may change when extra equipment is
added. For example, when a you add a home theater receiver, some cables that
previously went to the TV can, instead, go to the home theater receiver.
