Turn on the TV and other equipment.

|
beginning on page 18 and 19; use these to personalize the features of your Entertainment Machine. |
Tuner
There are a number of ways you can choose to integrate your Entertainment Machine with the rest of your audio/video equipment. Channels can be changed using the television, the VCR, or the cable box, with advantages to each.
USING THE TELEVISION AS THE TUNER preserves all your channel labels (not available on some models). It also reduces the number of keys on the remote control you need to worry about. (One device, one remote to learn.)
USING THE VCR AS THE TUNER has the advantage of simplifying the recording process. If the VCR is tuned to channel seven, then the VCR will record channel seven.
USING THE CABLE BOX (if you have one) to change the stations sometimes has an advantage, too, especially if your cable provider requires you to use their cable box to descramble their stations.
Source
The source button (TV/VCR/Source) on the remote switches between Video input and Antenna/Cable input. The Channel/Time display will read “Video” in place of a channel number if A/V inputs are selected as the picture source.
Antenna/Cable Input: This setting allows you to change cable or antenna channels and to view videocassettes on channel 3 (or 4) in mono sound.
Video Input: This setting allows stereo playback of videocassettes. The television cannot change channels in the Video mode, but the VCR can.
To view the current input source, press ENTER on your remote. The Channel/Time display should appear in the upper right-hand corner of the screen. If the display reads ‘Video,’ then the picture and sound source is connected to one set of the Audio/Video input jacks. If the display reads a channel number, then the picture and sound source is the Antenna/Cable jack.
