Television inputs

[Pick]

I am new to this RV world and have a curious question. I have a Micro-Minnie 2108 DS and need to figure out the TV inputs. I have 3 input jacks labeled TV, AUX/SAT and one not labeled. The TV one goes to the antenna but the other 2 are confusing. Outside I have a SAT connection and a park cable connection. I have done channel scans to get the park cable working on those two connections with no luck. What am I missing?

Did you go into the menu on the TV and tell it where it's getting the signal? I think that's what you're missing you need to tell it where the signal (cable/satellite | antenna) is coming from.

Yes sir I did try that. I selected the different inputs and scanned for channels each time.

Much depends on the exact TV and some details but some basics are often the same so , let's do a bit of guessing, first.
Step one is getting the switch right for the input you are using. TV for the antenna is often simpler. Do you get over the air TV?
That requires the amp for the TV going to the antenna to be turned on, often with a tiny switch located on the switchplate. Can be hidden in a cabinet and hard to spot the switch in the dark! Have you found that and got over the Air working?
That also reuires getting the internal TV menu set to get the input right. Some do it semi-auto and some have to be led right to the correct setting, so it bears checking.
You have two connections for the sat/cable? I am more used to a single which does both but they also require getting the TV settings right for that input. New TV are not friendly for our use with having to get the connections right, before we can do the scan to see if we have the connections right! Trying to get it right with cable is somewhat easier as we can be a bit more sure we are getting a signal versus not knowing for sure we are aiming the sat dish in the right direction, etc.

There is a very important switch that has to be turned on for using the Antenna and OFF or everything else.
That switch or button should be located on either the wall plate where you connect the inside coax to or it could be a selection box. If its the wall plate that does two things. On the back of the plate it connects the antenna coax and the cable antenna. If the switch is not turned off you will not get cable.
I have seen the sat. connection having its own connection from the outside.

Be happy you nailed it. I turned off that switch and now it works. Thanks again
