Attaching Satellite Receiver and Cable Box Controllers
If you connect a satellite receiver or a cable box to the Hard Disk Recorder, you need to attach a controller cable so the Hard Disk

control for these devices. When you press the Channel Up and Channel Down buttons on the Hard Disk Recorder remote control,
the channel is changed on your other device. See “Connecting a Serial Cable” if your satellite receiver has a serial connector. If
your satellite receiver or cable box does not have a serial connector, see “Connecting and Setting Up the IR Blaster” on page 17.
