Set-Top Terminal Tips :
Your Time Warner Cable set-top terminal will have one or more of the following jacks. Refer to set-top terminal diagrams found elsewhere on this Web site or in your installation kit.
Audio Output (red/white): Provides stereo sound for all channels
Video Output (yellow): Provides video (all channels except HD channels)
Note: Some set-top terminal models include audio and video inputs, providing a loop-through option for games or other devices. Cable set-top terminal power acts as a switch.
Cable (RF) output: Does not contain stereo sound. Connect only to non-stereo devices, do not connect to stereo TVs, VCRs, etc.
Digital Audio output (black or orange): Provides digital sound for channels 80+
S-Video output: Provides digital video for channels 80+
Home Theater Tips :
Most Home Theater/Surround Sound receivers have multiple types of inputs and outputs, and multiple sets of each kind, allowing you to connect many different analog and digital devices.
TV sets often do not have enough jacks available to connect all the entertainment devices needed.
By connecting your entertainment devices and cable set-top terminal through a Home Theater/Surround Sound receiver, you'll have greater ease of use, as well as the best sound and picture possible.
A Home Theater/Surround Sound receiver in turn, is connected to your TV. By using the remote provided with your Home Theater/Surround Sound receiver, you can determine which home entertainment device is active and feeding your TV.
Note: The Home Theater/Surround Sound receiver must be turned on to supply sound and picture to your TV.
DVD Tips:
For the best digital sound possible from your DVD player, connect its digital audio output to your Home Theater/Surround Sound receiver.
For the best digital picture possible from your DVD player, connect its S-Video or RGB output (sometimes labeled Y-Pb-Pr) to your Home Theater/Surround Sound receiver or TV.
TV Tips:
Depending on the model, many TV's have multiple sets of multiple types of inputs and outputs allowing you to connect many different analog-type devices to your TV.
HDTVs and other high-end TVs will also have RGB (sometimes labeled Y-Pb-Pr) jacks.
Most TVs do not have digital audio inputs. Therefore we recommend running the digital audio output from your Time Warner Cable set-top terminal to a Home Theater/Surround Sound receiver instead.
For best results, we recommend taking the audio from the set-top terminal to the Home Theater/Surround Sound receiver first, and then from there to the TV.
VCR Tips :
Most VCRs feature only analog audio and video inputs and outputs. (VCRs do not commonly have S-Video or digital audio jacks).
Some older model, non-stereo VCRs only have cable (RF) inputs and outputs. In these cases, connect the cable (RF) output from the set-top terminal to the VCR.
Note: The cable (RF) output jack on the set-top terminal does not supply stereo sound. This jack is not available on some models of set-top terminals.
When using analog (RCA) jacks, remember: Select the "line 1" or "line 2" input to view recorded programs. The VCR must be left on to pass audio and video to the Home Theater/Surround Sound receiver.
