Connect a coaxial cable from the “output” port of the VCR and into the cable port on the television. Tighten the cables so all the connections are secure.

Insert a tape into the VCR and push 'Play'. RF Modulator Use a RF modulator to connect a television to VCRs that have no coaxial inputs or outputs. Connect a set of RCA cables from the RCA “output” of the VCR.

If the RF modulator comes with a power adapter, plug the adapter in and power on the RF modulator. Turn on the television to test the connection.
Place the RF modulator on top of the television or VCR for easy access to the cords and power switch.
