Connections

Connecting a Cable Converter Box

This connection allows you to watch cable and premium channels. You should keep your TV
selected to ANT A so that you can use the TV features. When viewing premium channels, select
ANT B and tune the TV to channel 3 or 4 (whichever channel is vacant in your area), then use the
converter box to change channels. You will need two coaxial cables.

Connecting a Cable Converter Box and a VCR

This connection allows you to watch and record basic and premium cable channels, as well as
watch videotapes. You should keep your TV selected to ANT A so that you can use the TV's fea-
tures. When viewing premium channels or recording with the VCR, select ANT B (whichever chan-
nel is vacant in your area), then use the converter box to change channels.
Note: When you use a converter box with
your TV, there may be features that you can
not program using the remote control, such as
programming your favorite channels and block-
ing channels.
Caution: If you want to record one channel
while watching another channel, a splitter (not
included) must be added between the cable
and ANT A. One output of the splitter goes to
ANT A and the second output is connected to
IN on the cable converter box.
If you have a mono VCR, connect L/Mono to
VCR Audio OUT using only one audio cable.
If you have a S-VHS VCR, use the S-video con-
nections and remove the video cable. Do not
connect the video cable and the S-video cable
to video1 simultaneously.
When you use a converter box with your TV
there may be features that you can not pro-
gram using the remote control, such as pro-
gramming your favorite channels and blocking
channels.
