Connecting The Monitor To A Home Antenna Terminal; Outdoor Antenna Connection - Sharp IT-23M1U Operation Manual

Connecting the monitor to a home antenna terminal

CAUTION!
- When connecting, ensure that the monitor is switched off.
The antenna requirements for good color television reception are more important than those for black &
white television reception. For this reason, a good quality outdoor antenna is strongly recommended.
The following is a brief explanation of the type of connections that are provided with the various antenna
systems.
1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type
connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without
tools (not supplied).
2. A 300-ohm system is a flat "twin-lead" cable that can be
attached to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300-75-ohm
adapter (not supplied).
Notes:
- The 75-ohm coaxial cable is recommended.
- TV memory for channels is empty at shipment. To receive channels, use the CHANNEL SETTING
menu. (See pages E22 through E24.)

Outdoor antenna connection

- Use one of the following two diagrams if you connect an outdoor antenna.
A: Using a VHF/UHF combination outdoor antenna.
B: Using separate VHF and/or UHF outdoor antennas.
- Connect the outdoor antenna cable lead-in to the ANT (antenna input) terminal on the left side of the
monitor.
CAUTION!
- When connecting the RF cable to the monitor, do
not tighten F-type connector with tools. If tools are
used, it may cause damage to your monitor. (The
breaking of internal circuit, etc.)
