Note(s)
If you have any question about the DTV's antenna, visit
www.antennaweb.org for further information.
Depending on your antenna system, you may need different types of
combiners (mixers) or separators (splitters) for HDTV signal. The
minimum RF bandpass on these devices is 2,000MHz or 2GHz.
For your safety and to avoid damage to this unit, please unplug the RF
coaxial cable from the antenna input jack before moving the unit.
If you did use an antenna to receive analog TV, it should also work for DTV
reception. Outdoor or attic antennas will be more effective than a set-top
box or inside antenna.
To turn on your reception source easily between antenna and cable, install
an antenna selector.
If you are not receiving a signal from your cable service, contact the cable
provider.
Refer to the Quick start guide that shows the connections for the HDMI or
component input mode.
Plugging in the AC power cord
Make sure all the necessary connections are made before the AC
power cord is plugged into an AC outlet.
Caution(s)
Connect the analog audio signal cables from the external device to the analog
audio L/R input jacks.
If you have an amplifier, connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI input via your
amplifier.
Note(s)
Each time you plug in the AC power cord, no operations will be performed
for several seconds. This is not a malfunction.
