When using a converter descrambler box with a TV set, the TV set tuner is typically set to the "line" or "AV" input mode. This allows the TV to receive the processed signal from the converter box rather than trying to tune into a specific broadcast channel. The converter box decodes and unscrambles the signal, which is then sent directly to the TV for viewing.
