Cable TV connections

This TV has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without
using a Cable TV Converter box. Some cable companies offer "premium pay
channels" where the signal is scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal
viewing requires the use of a descrambler device which is generally provided by the
Cable TV company.

For subscribers to scrambled Cable TV service
If you subscribe to a Cable TV service which requires the use of a Converter/Descrambler
box, connect the incoming 75 ohm Coaxial Cable to the Converter/Descrambler box. Using
another 75 ohm Coaxial Cable, connect the output jack of the Converter/Descrambler box to
the Antenna Jack on the TV. Follow the connections shown below. Set the TV to the output
channel of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/
Descrambler box to select channels.

For subscribers to unscrambled Cable TV service with scrambled
premium channels
If you subscribe to a Cable TV service in which basic channels are unscrambled and
premium channels require the use of a Converter/Descrambler box, you may wish to
use a signal Splitter and an A/B Switch box (available from the Cable TV company or an
electronics supply store). Follow the connections shown below. With the switch in the "B"
position, you can directly tune any non-scrambled channels on your TV. With the switch
in the "A" position, tune your TV to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box (usually
channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to tune scrambled channels.
