Connecting an outside antenna

Antenna cables come in two types: 75 ohm and
300 ohm.

If your antenna cable has a 75 ohm
connector, connect the cable to the coaxial
jack on the back of your TV.

If your antenna cable has a 300 ohm
connector, connect the cable to a
300-75 ohm adapter (not included), connect
the adapter to a 75 ohm cable, then connect
the other end of the 75 ohm connector to the
coaxial jack on the back of your TV.

Connecting cable TV

Your TV has a 75 ohm jack for connecting cable
TV.
Some cable TV providers scramble the signals
for “premium” (pay) channels. To view these
channels, you need a converter/descrambler
box.
If you do not have a converter/descrambler box,
you can connect your cable TV directly to your
TV. If you have a converter/descrambler box,
you can connect your cable TV using an RF
switch (not supplied). For more information
about connecting a converter/descrambler box,
contact your cable TV provider.

To connect cable TV without a
converter/descrambler box:

1 Connect one end of a 75 ohm cable to the

coaxial jack on the back of your TV.

2 Connect the other end of the cable to the

cable TV wall outlet.

To connect cable TV with a
converter/descrambler box:

Use the following illustration to connect a
converter/descrambler box. (The RF switch
and the signal splitter are not provided.)
Set the RF switch to the A position to tune to
unscrambled channels using your TV remote
control. Set the RF switch to the B position to
tune to scrambled channels using the
converter/descrambler controls.

Connecting to an external signal source

You can connect a DVD, VCD, VCR, or STB
using a variety of methods, including composite
cables, component cables, an S-Video cable, or
an HDMI cable. The S-Video cable does not
carry sound. If you use an S-Video cable, you
need to use audio cables to connect the audio
output.

To connect an external signal source:

1 For composite video—Plug the audio/video

cable into the AUDIO L and AUDIO R (2)
jacks and VIDEO (4) jack on the back of your
TV, then connect the other ends to the
corresponding jacks on the external signal
source.

Or

For S-Video—Plug in the audio cables as
described above, then plug one end of an
S-Video cable into the S-Video ( 5) jack on
the back of your TV, then plug the other end
into the S-Video jack on the external signal
source.

Or

For component video—Plug the Y, Pb, and
Pr video cables into the COMPONENT (3)
video jacks and the Audio L and Audio R
cables into the COMPONENT (6) audio jacks
on the back of your TV, then plug the other
ends of the cables into the corresponding
jacks on the external signal source.

connection.
