Connecting a home entertainment system

The A/V receiver must be turned on in order to send the video and video signal to your

TV.

You can integrate the DIRECTV ® Receiver into your entertainment system to take advantage of enhanced audio and video capability. Follow these instructions to connect your DIRECTV Receiver.

• To connect the DIRECTV Receiver to your audio system, use A/V cables to connect the satellite receiver to the audio receiver’s AUDIO IN jacks.

• Dolby Digital - With the HAH-SA satellite receiver, you can enjoy programs that contain a Dolby Digital sound track. We recommend that you listen in surround sound for maximum enjoyment of these programs. You can connect the stereo outputs of the HAH-SA to a receiver that contains a

Dolby Surround Pro Logic decoder. This will provide you with three audio channels in the front and a mono surround channel.

• To take full advantage of Dolby Digital programming, connect the HAH-SA digital audio output to an external 5.1-channel Dolby Digital decoder or receiver. This provides you with three front channels, two independent surround channels, and an LFE (or subwoofer) channel.

1. Connect the satellite antenna RG-6 coaxial cable to the DIRECTV

Receiver’s SATELLITE IN jack.

2. Connect the DIRECTV Receiver’s A/V jacks to the VCR and A/V receiver’s

A/V jacks.

3. AUX, optical connection, and digital output connections – If your audio receiver has optical digital connectors, connect the appropriate type of cable to the DIRECTV Receiver’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT for two-channel digital stereo. If your A/V receiver is also capable of decoding Dolby Digital, use this connection in order to listen in full 5.1-channel surround sound. Refer to page 25 for additional audio information.

4. Connect the VCR’s A/V OUT jacks to a pair of the A/V receiver’s A/V IN jacks.

5. Connect the A/V receiver’s MONITOR OUT jack to the TV’s VIDEO IN jack.

6. Plug the components into an electrical outlet.

Note: If you have connected a VCR to your entertainment system in a way that routes the satellite receiver’s signal to your VCR before it reaches the TV, you may see a distorted picture if you try to record (or view in some instances) a copy-protected program. A Can’t Tape symbol in the screen banner identifies these programs.
