Connecting Your Equipment Use this example if you have a satellite set-top box and VCR, no Serial Control jack, and your satellite set-top box uses S-Video cables. 1 Connect the SVR Recorder to your satellite box. Since you use a satellite set-top box to receive your television signal, the SVR Recorder needs to be able to change channels on your box in order to record shows and display live TV. Connect the SVR Recorder to the infrared (IR) receiver of your satellite set-top box using the IR Control cable (supplied). Start by plugging the IR Control cable into the Cntrl Out IR jack on the back of the SVR Recorder. Next, locate the IR receiver on your satellite set-top box - it's usually a small dark red window or button on the front of the box. Place the IR Emitter (from the IR Control cable) on top of the satellite set-top box, sticking out slightly. The IR Emitter has an adhesive strip so you can adhere it to the set-top box. If it is not possible to stick the IR Emitter directly onto the window, place it in front of or as close as possible to the window. 2 Connect your program source/video input to the SVR Recorder. Disconnect any cables that you have connecting your satellite set-top box to your VCR and/or TV. Use the S-Video cable (supplied) to connect the S-Video Out of your satellite set-top box to the S-Video input on the back of the SVR Recorder. You must also use the left (white) and right (red) Audio/Video cables to connect the Audio Out on your satellite set-top box to the Audio In on the back of the SVR Recorder, as illustrated here. 3 Continue.
