Connecting to a TV using a RF
Modulator
Note: Not all RF Modulators are compatible
with APEX Digital players. Please see our
website for recommendations.
Many older televisions do not have the newer component-video,
composite-video, or s-video connections that optimize DVD
technology. While it would be advised to purchase a newer
television in order to take full advantage of the digital quality of
DVD’s, it is possible to connect an older television to a DVD
player. This connection requires a device called an RF modulator.
First, it is necessary to ascertain whether or not your TV needs a
RF modulator. Look at the back of your TV. If you see three input
connectors lined up in a row, in the colors of yellow, red, and
white, then you will not need an RF modulator. If you see a
connector labeled "s-video", then you will not need an RF
modulator. If you do not have either of these connectors, then you
will need to purchase an RF modulator from the store where you
purchased your Apex Digital DVD player or other home
electronics retailers.
Older televisions use a coaxial connection, which combines all of
the video signal from an exterior source into a single line. This
line is then translated by your TV into the picture you see. The RF
modulator combines the output signals from the DVD player, or
any other device, into the coaxial connection for use by your
television.
Below are written and pictoral instructions on the proper way to
connect an RF modulator to your Apex DVD player and your TV.
Connecting the
TV to the DVD
through the VCR
Note: Many VCRs
will distort the
picture of a DVD
player. This is NOT
a malfunction of the
DVD player or VCR.
All DVD
manufacturers are
required to install
macrovision copyright ciruritry to
prevent copying via VCR. This is
what causes the distortion.
1) Connect the three-terminal
composite video cable to the back
of your Apex DVD player. This
cable has three prongs, one each
in yellow, red, and white. The
yellow prong will go into the jack
labeled "Video Out"; the white
prong will go into the jack labeled
"Front-L"; the
red prong will go into the jack
labeled
"Front-R".
2) Connect the opposite end of the
composite-video cable into the
back of the RF modulator. Make
sure to match up the colors
correctly.
3) Connect a coaxial cable from
the "Antenna Out" jack on the back
of your VCR to the "Antenna" jack
on the RF modulator. The coaxial
cable is the one-wire, metal-ended
type that you screw onto the VCR.
4) Connect a coaxial cable from
the "To TV" jack on the RF
modulator to the jack on the back
of your TV.
5) Make sure your TV is set to the
appropriate channel before using
your DVD player. In most cases,
this is channel 3 or 4.
