3 Connections and setup

Refer to your TV's Quick Start Guide or other provided
documentation to for model-specific information about attaching
the base or a wall mount and making connections to AC power and
to your other audio/video devices. The following information
applies to all Roku TV models.

Connecting an antenna, cable, or satellite box

If you are using an antenna, CATV cable without a set-top box, or
a cable or satellite box that has only an antenna output, connect
a 75-ohm coaxial cable (not provided) from the device to the ANT/
CABLE input on the TV.
Tip(s)
If you are using an antenna with a 300 ohm twin-lead cable,
●
you need to use a 300-to-75 ohm adapter (not provided) to
adapt the twin-lead cable to a connection that is compatible
with the TV's antenna input.
If you receive your TV stations through a set top box from a
●
cable or satellite TV provider, connect it to the TV using the
best connection method available. From most to least
desirable:
® input – Digital HD and SD video
HDMI
–
AV input – analog SD video
–
Antenna input – analog SD video using NTSC
–
Connecting external equipment with a composite AV
video cable
If the best connection available on your device is AV or composite
video output, connect it to the TV using a composite AV cable (not
provided). Composite AV cables typically have three RCA-type
plugs on each end, color coded as follows:
Yellow– Video
–
Red– Audio, right channel
–
White or black– Audio, left channel
–
Connect each plug to the corresponding connector on the device
and on the TV.
Note(s)
Select models have an AV Input that looks like a headphone jack. Use the
●
breakout cable (included) to adapt this input to the three RCA-type plugs on
your composite cable.
Connecting external equipment with an HDMI
If possible, connect your devices using HDMI
provided). They help to provide the best video quality and also
carry audio signals, so that only one cable is needed. For better
picture quality, we recommend that you use cables designated as
®
High Speed HDMI Cables.
Tip(s)
You might need to configure the device to send its signal
●

The connector labeled HDMI IN (ARC) has the additional ability to
use the audio return channel to send digital audio to a receiver or
sound bar, as explained in Connecting an AV receiver or digital
sound bar L p. 11

Connecting headphones or analog sound bar to the TV

Loud noise can damage your hearing. When using headphones, use the
lowest volume setting on your headphones that still lets you hear the sound.
Select models also have an audio line out connection that is not affected by
TV volume or mute settings and does not disable the TV speakers. Use this
connection when you want to use your amplifi er or sound bar to control the
TV volume. To turn off the TV's built-in speakers, in the Home screen menu,
navigate to Settings > Audio > TV speakers and change the setting.
