Connecting an outside antenna

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

Connecting to an external signal source

You can connect a DVD, VCD, VCR, or STB
(set-top box) 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 AV IN L and R audio jacks (6)
jacks and AV IN 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 AV IN S-Video (5) jack
on the back of your TV and plug the other
end into the S-Video jack on the external
signal source.
Or
For component video—Plug a component
video cable into the COMPONENT Y, Pb,
and Pr video (3) jacks on the back of your TV.
Plug an audio cable into the COMPONENT R
and L audio (2) jacks on the back of your TV.
Plug the other ends of the cables into the
corresponding jacks on the external signal
source.
