INPUT SOURCES
FOR YOUR "IV
Your TV has five input connection areas: ANT/CABLE
1,
ANT/CABLE
2, VIDEO 1 IN, VIDEO 2 IN, and S-
VIDEO 1 IN. (In addition, some models have a sixth input
area on the front of the TV.) These five inputs allow you to
connect five different "signal sources to your TV at the
same time. The "Signal Source" refers to the item supply-
ing the picture and sound to your TV.
The most common "sig_aal source" is your outdoor antenna
(or master antenna) or a cable-TV system. This type of sig-
nal is called a radio frequency (RF) source, and is con-
nected to the one of the ANT/CABLE
jacks.
Another common "signal source'
is the audio and video
(A/V) from a VCR or video disc player. Thi,; type of signal
is called base band (basic video and audio), and is con-
nected to one of the VIDE() IN connections.
A third "signal source" is the inpat from a Super-VHS
VCR. If you have a S-VHS VCR, use the S-VIDEO 1 IN
video and audio jacks to connect it to the TV.
To use any of these video/audio input sources, you must ac-
cess the SOURCE
Menu and select the "source" which cor-
responds to the input jacks being used. Refer to the
"SOURCE
MENU" in this operating guide
