EQUIPMENT
Tuners on VCR’s & analog DVD’s will not be able to pick up over-the-air programs
for recording without a converter box. Each TV set or TV recording device, such
as a VCR or analog DVD player must be connected to a DTV converter box to
continue receiving broadcast signals. The input to the VCR’s & analog DVD’s must
be connected to the output of the converter box and the box must be tuned to the
channel you want to record prior to the start of the timed recording programmed
in the VCR’s & analog DVD’s.
A digital-to-analog converter box is needed for each TV set
or other device (such as a VCR or DVD player that only has an analog tuner.
If you want to watch and record one program simultaneously, you will only need
one converter box. However, if you want to watch one program and record a
different channel at the same time, you will need two converter boxes.
INSTALLATION
Consumers should be able to install the converter box using the instructions
provided by the manufacturer. Depending on your TV, converter boxes plug into
either the back or front of the set. You will still need an antenna, which works
with the TV converter box. Each TV converter box comes with installation
instructions from the manufacturer.
