Use this hookup if:
❑
Your cable TV company scrambles some channels, but not all of them
(pay channels vs. regular cable channels) and you need to use a cable
box.
❑
You want to enjoy the Twin View feature.
With this setup you can:
❑
Use the LCD projection TV's remote control to change channels on
your cable box when the signal is scrambled. To program your Sony
remote control to operate your cable box, see "Programming the
Remote Control" on page 58.
❑
Use the LCD projection TV's remote control to change channels on
your LCD projection TV when the signal is not scrambled. Your LCD
projection TV's tuner provides a better signal than the cable box.
❑
Use the Twin View feature. (When all channels are routed through your
cable box, only one signal is sent to the LCD projection TV, so you
cannot use the Twin View feature.)
Disconnect all power sources before making any connections.
