Here I go again

I am trying to figure out my entertainment center.[img][/img]


I know what #1, 3, 6 are, but what are the other 3?
What are the the others input/outputs?
How do you play dvd's from the built in system?
Is there a wiring diagram somewhere?

Ours is a little different form yours but your number 3 (The one labeled tv video out) is the one we use to connect the concertone DVD player to the TV. A simple RCA cable from that jack to an RCA video input on the TV is all thats needed. The surround sound comes through our Concertone.

You will need to know which input your using on the TV and set your TV to play that input.

I'm scarred just looking at it!!! We don't have anything like that in the 2004 models!

Here is our A/V connections. Set up a little different than yours but basically the same thing.

Notice the yellow RCA cable from the "TV Video Out" jack. This cable is used to get the DVD video from the concertone to the TV.




Your number 5 should be the same as the single coaxial cable in my top pic. It is the input from the cat's antenna to your TV. It simply goes to the coax input on the rear of your TV.

Your number 2 should be the same as the Red and White RCA cables in my top pic. This is an auxillary audio input to your concertone. I have the audio output of our TV connected here so we can hear the TV through the concertone. This input is actually ran through the selector switch on our unit.

Holy Smokes!!!

I do believe a PHD in RV wiring is required to figure that mess out!!

I have the same setup as MountainMan but I never hooked anything to it yet, so i'm glad to see how it's done.

4 looks like the jumper loop.

I agree with the other opinions of 2 & 5

Oops! I forgot about 4. Yes it should be the same as my lower pic with the short white coax jumper. I believe its used when connecting to the campgrounds cable to pass the signal through from the outside cable connection on your Cat. Remove this jumper for satellite use and install reciever where jumper cable is.

BOY, i'm glad my OLD CAT is simple....

I'd say different. It's not simple. Labels would be a good idea.

And isn't it amazing that Wildcat doesn't provide an owner's manual to those who purchase their trailers.

I am like Jetskier & oldelmer. I only have 3 hookups.

I came across a couple different Concertone Manuals. I don't know how much help these will be to anybody, but I'm putting them here for reference.

Thanks for the manuals.
I stopped at my cat dealer yesterday for some tips from them. At least the showed me how to get the radio out. I was able to check the dvd signal coming out of the radio. The cable from the radio to the video out on the wall is dead. I checked the cable with my ohm meter and nothing.
They still think I need the jumper on the coax plate on the wall. Well tomorrow I'll try that. I'll keep you posted.
