Hook it up as if it was a VCR and you should be all right.

Connect the dvd recorder between the cable box and your TV using appropriate cables (RCAs red, yellow and white) to the corresponding colors.

So you cable box RCA output to DVD recorder RCA input. Then recorder RCA outputs to TV's RCA inputs.
