Scrambled Cable-TV Channels
Some cable-TV decoders require that you manually switch from regular to scrambled channels on the decoder
whenever you wish to view the premium pay channels. By connecting the decoder to the ANTA input and CONVERTER
output on your TV and leaving the decoder box set to the scrambled channel, you can switch between the scrambled
and unscrambled channels by using the TV's remote control.
Simply press the ANTENNAbutton on the remote control to switch
between the scrambled and nonscrambled channels.
Each time you press the ANTENNAbutton, the channel numbers
will change color on the screen to show which antenna signal
you're watching.
Nonscrambled cable channels will come through the ANTa input
whenever the channel numbers are yellow.
The scrambled channel from the decoder box will come through
the ANTA input whenever the channel numbers are blue. Be sure
to leave the decoder box set to the scrambled channel, and
remember to tune your TV to the output channel of the converter
