To connect an antenna:
1 Turn off your TV and all connected equipment.
2 If your antenna cable has a coaxial connector,
connect the cable to the ANTENNA/CABLE
DIGITAL/ANALOG jack on the back of your TV.
Or,
If your antenna cable has a twin-lead connector,
connect the cable to a coaxial-to-twin-lead
(300-75 ohm) adapter (not included), connect
the adapter to a coaxial cable, then connect the
other end of the coaxial cable to the
ANTENNA/CABLE DIGITAL/ANALOG jack on
the back of your TV.
3 Connect the other end of the cable to the
antenna jack.
Connecting cable TV
Your TV has a coaxial 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 require a converter/descrambler box,
you can connect your cable TV directly to your TV.
For more information, see “No
converter/descrambler box” on page 13.
If you require a converter/descrambler box, you can
connect your cable TV using an RF switch (not
included). For more information about connecting
a converter/descrambler box, see “With
converter/descrambler box” on page 13 and
contact your cable TV provider.
You can also connect cable TV using an HDMI,
component video, S-Video, or AV connection,
depending on your cable box. For more
information, see “Connecting cable TV via a cable
TV box” on page 13.
No converter/descrambler box
To connect cable TV without a
converter/descrambler box:
1 Connect one end of a coaxial 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.
With converter/descrambler box
If your cable box descrambles only some channels
(such as premium channels), you need a two-way
splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four lengths of
antenna cable. The two-way splitter and RF switch
are not provided.
To connect cable TV with a
converter/descrambler box:
• Use the following illustration as a guide to
connect a converter/descrambler box.
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
watch scrambled channels using the
converter/descrambler controls.
Connecting cable TV via a cable TV box
1 Connect the incoming cable from the cable wall
jack to the cable-in jack on the cable box.
2 Depending on the jacks available on the cable
box, connect a cable from the outgoing jacks on
the cable box to the corresponding jacks on the
back of your TV. The connection can be to the
cable-out, HDMI, component video, S-Video, or
AV jack.
3 If you use a component video, S-Video, or AV
cable, connect an audio cable to the
corresponding jacks on the back of your TV and
on the cable box.
Tips
If you plan on receiving over-the-air broadcasts, you
will need to use a separate antenna (not included) to
ensure the best reception.
