Connections & Setup
Get the Picture
The first part of connecting your TV is to get the picture, also known as a signal. The back
panel of your TV allows you to receive cable channels by using the CABLE INPUT; receive local
off-air digital and analog channels by using the ANTENNA INPUT; and a digital cable by using
the CableCARD slot (with CABLE INPUT). See below for these locations.
