How to Install a Teac HDB840 High-Definition Set-Top Box

HD set-top boxes can deliver high-definition channels over a coaxial cable.

Set-top boxes are devices used by cable TV providers to deliver more channels than can be delivered over a traditional coaxial cable. If you have a Teac high-definition cable box that for whatever reason was not installed by your cable TV provider, you can have your set-top box connected and working in no time.

Things You'll Need

• Coaxial cable
• HDMI or component cables

Instructions

1. Connect the coaxial cable from your wall cable outlet to the coaxial input on the back of the Teac set-top box. Screw on the coaxial connector until it is hand-tight.

2. Attach the HDMI cable or component cables from the appropriate output on the back of the Teac box to the corresponding input on your TV.

3. Set the TV to receive signal from the set-top box by using the input selection control, usually labeled "input," "source," "TV/video," "TV/AV" or the like. For instance, if you used an HDMI cable plugged into your TV's HDMI 1 input, press the input selection control until the TV displays the HDMI 1 input. You are now ready to watch high-definition programming through your Teac set-top box.
