Notes
Use this example if you have both a satellite set-top box and a cable set-top box.
• Since you use both a satellite and cable
set-top box to receive your televIsion
signal, the SVR Recorder needs to be
able to change channels on both of your
set-top boxes In order to record shows
and display live TV.
• If your satellite set-top box doesn't
Include a Serial In Jack, then place the
other end of the IR Control cable with
the second IR Emitter on top of your
satellite receiver, In front and as close
as possible to the IR window.

Connect the SVR Recorder to your satellite box and your cable
box.
Serial Connection
-If your satellite set-top box has a Senal In jack, connect the
SVR Recorder to It usmg the Senal Control cable (supplied). If your satellite set-
top box has two jacks that look like Senal Control jacks, use the one labeled "low
speed data." You may need to use the 9 to 25 pm Senal adapter (supplied) to
match your box.
IR Connection -
Plug the IR Control cable mto the Cntrl Out IR jack on the back
of the SVR Recorder. Next, locate the IR receiver on your cable box -It's usually
a small dark red wmdow or button on the front of the box. Place the IR Emitter

front ofthe IR receiver, stIckmg out slightly. The IR
Emitter has an adheSive stnp so you can adhere It to the box. If It IS not possible to
