INSTALLATION STANDARDPAGE 6

206-3360-O

Locate the Antenna/Cable 2 jack on

the back of your TV. Connect the

cable that runs from the wall direct-

ly to the jack. Now find the the

Loop Out jack.

Connect the cable from this jack to

the Input jack on the back of your

cable box.

Locate the Output jack on the back

of your cable box. Connect this to

the Antenna/Cable 1 jack on the

back of your TV.

To view the premium stations, set

the channel number on your cable

box to HBO®, CINEMAX®, SHOW-

TIME®, etc. Then go to the Source

menu and select the Antenna/Cable

1 source. See your Quick Setup

Sheet, included with this operating

guide for more information. See

page 20 for information regarding

Source Menus.

To view the non premium channels

go to the Source Menu and select

Antenna/Cable 2. Then run Channel

Search to check for all available

channels and store them in its

memory.

This can be combined with any

other equipment you may want

to hook up. Hook cable directly into

the TV, then to the cable box. From

there, the cable box goes to the

next device, down the line, until

the last piece, which connects back

to the TV in the Antenna/Cable 1

jack.

Some cable services require the use of a

cable box to decode premium channels and

pay-per-view. Using the Loop Out to

Decoder option, and programming your

remote, you can connect your cable box so

that you only need your MBR Trakball

remote to control all the channels. By

connecting cable directly to your

Entertainment Machine, then running it out

to the cable box and back, you make the

cable box another source to choose from in

the Source menu (see page 20).

This is just a general room design.

Any number of set-ups are possible,

and some changes may be needed

to maximize your sound.

A left and right speaker on either

side of the Entertainment Machine

will create a phantom “center

channel,” making the dialog sound

as though it’s coming directly from

the Entertainment Machine. The rear

surround sound speakers provide

the majority of other sounds, like

those from special effects in movies.

Your sub-woofer generates ultra-low

frequency sound, for rumbling

low-end audio.

Sound is affected by

speaker placement, so

make sure nothing is in

front of the speakers, and

that they are aimed in

appropriate directions.

You have the option of

turning on or off the internal

speakers.

If your surround sound

system is on, but there’s no

sound from the speakers,

the program you’re watching

might not be broadcast in

surround sound.

Sub-woofer

Locate the Surround Speakers jacks on the

back of your Entertainment Machine. Connect

the wires to the right or left channel, depend-

ing on where the speaker is located in your

room. The copper wire corresponds to

the Negative jack, and the silver to the

Positive.

Locate the jacks marked Variable Out. These

are for the sub-woofer. Connect the sub-

woofer’s cables, according to their color (red

is the right channel, white the left) to these

jacks.

If you happen to have Mini-tower

speakers, these will be connected

to the back of your sub-woofer,

with the jack labeled Satellite

Speaker Output.

Before you begin plugging in your speakers,

it’s a good idea to put them in their

approximate places first. That way you

know how much wire you have or will need.

Locate the Variable Out jacks on

the back of your Entertainment

Machine and the Input jacks on

the back of your stereo’s amplifi-

er.

Connect the two jacks, making

sure that the right and left

channels are placed correctly.

Set up your speakers through

your stereo, according to

those directions.
