Connections Connections Front side Stereo Audio in S-Video in Composite Video in Infrared receiver for the remote Connections Rear side 2 USB TV antenna or cable terminal
Antenna connection Hook up the antenna input of PCTV 50e/100e to your house antenna (coaxial connection) or to your cable connection. To connect the antenna, you need the corresponding cable. Note that the quality of the cable has a great influence on the quality of the reception. PC connection Insert the USB connector of PCTV 50e/100e into your PC. Use only the USB cable included in the delivery. Video device connection Connect your video source (for example, a camcorder, video recorder or DVD player) to the audio input and to the corresponding video input of PCTV 50e/100e. You can use any video device that delivers an S-video signal or a composite video signal in PAL, NTSC or SECAM (for example, a video recorder, camcorder or DVD player). This is independent of the video system used (for example, VHS, S-VHS, Hi8 or Video 8). Note that, depending on the product variant, not all video standards (PAL, NTSC or SECAM) are available. If your video source has a S-video output, connect this and not the composite video output to ensure better output quality. 3
Sample configuration TV antenna USB Audio- and Video-in optional: Video source e.g. camcorder or DVD player 4
