181-CHANNEL REMO TE CONTROL
CABLE CONVERTER
with Volume Control
Page 2
INTRODUCTION
Your RadioShack 181-Channel Remote Control Cable Converter lets you
connect a non-cable-ready video
product to cable. It is compatible with
all cable systems and gives you complete remote control selection of all
cable channels (VHF, Mid-Band, Super-Band, and Hyper-Band) . The converter’s volum e control let s you adju st
a connected TV’s sound. You can also
use the converter’s remote control to
turn on or off and fine tune most TVs.
Important Note:
This cable conver ter
does not decode “scrambled” premium channels. You can, however , use
it with the cable box provided by the
cable company so you can receive
premium channels and still have remote control of all other channels.
Note to Cable TV System Installer:
This reminder is provided to call the
CATV system installer’s attention to
Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for prope r grounding
and, in particular, specifies that the
cable ground be connected to the
grounding system of the building as
close to cable entry as practical.
Note:
You need two AAA batteries
and a 75-ohm coaxial cable to operate
your converter. You might also need
extra coaxial cable, an A/B switch, a
two-way splitter, and (if your TV has
only 300-ohm terminals) a 75-to-300
ohm transformer. Read the entire
“Connecting the Conver ter” section of
this Owner’s Manua l before you be gin
to install your converter.

PREPARATION
Your converter’s remote control requires two AAA batteries (not supplied) for power. For the best
performance and l ongest life, we recommend RadioShack alkaline batteries.
Cautions:
• Use only fresh batteries of the
required size and recommended
type.
• Do not mix old and new batteri es,
different types of batteries (standard, alkaline, or rechargeable), or
rechargeable batteries of different
capacities.
Follow these steps to install batteries.
Warning:
promptly and properly . Do not burn or
bury them.
Caution:
remote control for a month or more,
remove the batteries. Batteries can
leak chemicals that can destroy electronic parts.
Dispose of old batteries
If you do not plan to use th e
SETTING CH4/CH3
Set your TV’s tuner to Channe l 3 or 4
(whichever is not used for br oadcasts
in your area). Then set
the back of the conve rter to m atch th e
channel you selected on your TV’s
tuner.

1. Slide the battery compartment
cover in the direction of the ar row
to remove it.
2. Place the batteries in the compartment as indicated by the
polarity symb ols ( + a nd –) m ar ked
inside.
3. Replace the cover.
When the remote control stops operating properly, replace the batteries.

CHOOSING THE CABLE
SYSTEM TYPE
There are three types of cable TV
channel frequency systems: standard, IRC, and HRC. Most cabl e systems use a standard system. Your
converter is pres et to use a standard
channel frequency system.

Note:
If you are not sure what ty pe of
channel frequency system your cable
system uses, co ntact your local c able
company.
If the cable system in you r area is not
standard, use a paper clip or other
pointed object to se t
the bottom of the converter for the
type of cable system you have.
Note:
HRC and IRC are methods
used by some cable companies for
converting satellite and local broadcast channels to cable channels.
Channels 5 and 6 on IRC systems and
all channels on HRC systems are
slightly different frequencies from
those used on standard systems.

might have to turn on your TV
using its power switch or remote
control.
• If you plugged a digital TV into the
switched AC outlet, it might automatically reset to a channel other
than 3 or 4 when you turn off the
converter. If this happens, you
might want to plug it into a standard AC outlet and tur n it on and

CONNECTING THE CONVERTER
CONNECTING TO A TV
Use the supplied 75-ohm coaxial cable with F-type connecto rs to connect

converter. If your TV has only 300ohm terminals, use a 75-to-300 ohm
transformer (not supplied), available
from your local RadioShack store.

CONNECTING TO CABLE
How you connect your converter depends on the complexit y of your video
system. Refer to the connection examples on the next few p ages to find
the one that is most similar to your
system.
Notes:
Connect the cabl e company’s coaxial
cable to the
of the converter.
• Your system might use a combination of two or more of the following
examples. If you have questions,
take a diagram of your system to
your local RadioShack store for
assistance.
• Check local regulations before
connecting any device to your
cable system.

VARIATIONS IN
CHANNEL NUMBERING
Some cable compan ies us e a ch annel
numbering system that is different
from the one used by your converter .
For example, the channel your cable
company calls 21 might ap pear as
on the converter’s display.
Use the supplied cha nnel number labels to mark the cable company’s
channel numbers that differ from the
channels on the converter’s display.
Then peel off the bac king on each label and paste the large label on the
converter and the smal l label on your
remote control.
This table compares channels that
your converter shows to channel numbers that might be assigned by your
local cable company.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Your RadioShack 181-Cha nnel Remote Control Cable Converter is an example
of superior design and craftsmanship. The following suggestions will help you
care for your converter so you can enjoy it for years.
Keep the converter dr y. If it gets wet, wipe i t dry i mmedia tely. Liqui ds
might contain minerals that can corrode the electronic circuits.
Use and store the converter only in normal temperature environments. Temperature extremes can shorten the life of electronic devices, damage batteries, and distort or melt plastic parts.
Keep the converter away from dust and dirt, which can caus e premature wear of parts.
Handle the converter gently and carefully. Dropping it can damage
circuit boards and cases and can cause the converter to work improperly.
Use only fresh bat teries of the required s ize and recomme nded type .
Batteries can leak chemical s that damage you r converter’ s electron ic
parts.
Wipe the converter with a damp cloth occasional ly to keep it looking
new. Do not use har sh chemic als, cle aning so lvents, or strong de tergents to clean the converter.
Modifying or tampering with the converter’s internal components can cause a
malfunction and mi ght invalida te its war ranty and vo id your FCC a uthorizati on to
operate it. If your converter is not performing as it should, take it to your local RadioShack store for assistance.

THE FCC WANTS YOU TO KNOW
Your converter might cause TV or radio interference even when it is operating
properly. To determin e whether your conv erter is c ausing th e interfere nce, turn o ff
your converter. If the interference goes aw ay, your converter is caus ing it. Try to
eliminate the interference by:
• moving your converter away from the receiver
• connecting your converter to an outlet that is on a different electrical circuit from
the receiver
• contacting your local RadioShack store for help
If you cannot eliminat e the in terferen ce, the FCC requ ires that y ou stop us ing y our
converter.
