Things You’ll Need:

• DVD player
• VCR
• Digital cable box
• TV
• RF modulator
• Coax cables

1. Locate the coax cable at the cable outlet. Plug the coax cable into cable box in the "video, cable or antenna in" plug.
2. Plug the cable box into the VCR. Connect the coax cable from the "out" plug on the cable box to the "in" plug on the VCR. Coordinate color plugs with color outlets when you use a composite cable.
3. Insert a coax cable into the "video out" slot on the VCR. Connect the coax cable to an "in" port on the RF modulator box.
