Watching Cable TV programs that don’t
require the cable box
Since you’ve connected the cable TV signal
directly to the TV’s tuner, you can also watch the
unscrambled programs by simply tuning to the
desired channel. You must first use Autoprogram,
however, to store channels in the TV’s memory.
Note: This connection will supply stereo sound to
the TV if it is being broadcast by the station you are
watching.

Basic connections to the TV
Your integrated digital TV automatically decodes and displays the four basic DTV
picture resolution standards.
- SDTV (Standard Definition TV) are broadcast as 480i (480-line interlaced) or
480p (480-line progressive scan) video.
- HDTV (High-Definition TV) are broadcast either in the 1080i or 720p formats,
always with a widescreen picture.
Note: Progressive scan video (p) is more like that you see in a movie theater. Images are
much more distinct and free of flicker, and motion is smoother.
Next to analog NTSC broadcast reception, your TV has an integrated High
Definition TV tuner which receives, decodes and displays terrestrial ATSC and
unscrambled cable (QAM) signals.
HDTV quality is only reproduced when a broadcaster or cable provider broadcasts
HDTV signals.
There are 2 ways to get HDTV content:
-
via
cable,
-
via
antenna.
Note: This drawing is used wherever you can connect cable or antenna.
- Cable TV
Connect the cable TV signal to the
CABLE/ANTENNA 75 Ω
:
jack at the bottom
of the TV.
Note: this connection will supply stereo sound to the TV if it is being broadcast by the
station you are watching.
- Cable box with
RF IN/OUT
• Connect the incoming cable TV signal to the cable
IN
jack
1
on the back of
the cable box.
• Connect a coaxial cable (not supplied) from the
TO TV
jack on the back of the
cable box to the
CABLE/ANTENNA 75 Ω
:
jack
2
at the bottom of the TV.
Note: Your cable box may have a different label for the
TO TV
jack, such as
OUTPUT
or
OUT
.
• Set the
OUTPUT CH
switch
3
of the cable box to
CH 3
or
4
(whichever is
correct for your cable box), then tune the TV to the corresponding channel.
Once tuned, change channels at the cable box, not the TV.
Note: This connection will not supply stereo sound to the TV. The reason is that the RF
output on a cable box - labeled
TO TV
,
OUT
or
OUTPUT
for example - will not send a
stereo signal to the tuner (VHF/UHF) input on a TV.
- Cable box with A/V outputs
• Connect the incoming cable TV signal
1
to a signal splitter (not supplied). The
signal splitter enables you to avoid having to use the TO TV jack on the back of
the cable box. This jack will not supply stereo sound to the TV.
Note: Your cable box may have a different label for the
TO TV
jack, such as
OUTPUT
or
OUT
.
• Connect a coaxial cable (not supplied) to a connector on the signal splitter and
to the
CABLE/ANTENNA 75 Ω
:
jack
2
on the TV.
• Connect another coaxial cable (not supplied) to a connector on the signal
splitter and to the cable
IN
jack
3
on the back of the cable box.
• Connect A/V cables (not supplied) to the
VIDEO
and
AUDIO L
and
R
outputs
on the back of the cable box and to the
AV2
video (labeled
VIDEO
) and
AUDIO
(labeled
L
and
R
) jacks
4
on the back of the TV.
• To view programs from your cable box, first press the
SOURCE
button on the
remote control.
• Press the cursor down or up buttons until the
AV2
signal source is selected.
• Press the
OK
button to confirm your selection. The
AV2
input source
becomes current for the viewing of cable TV programs through your cable box.
Note: If your cable box Audio/Video outputs will not supply video and stereo audio to
the TV, you will need to make the connection shown above in the example “Cable box
with
RF IN/OUT
”.
