Connecting a cabme converter box
This television has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable
channels without using a cable company supplied converter box. Some
cable companies offer "premium pay channels" in which the signal is
scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewing requires the
use of a descrambler device, which is generally provided by the cable
company.
For Subscribers to Basic CabJe TV Service
For basic cable service not requiring a Converter/Descrambler box,
connect the CATV 75 ohm CoaxiaI Cable directly to the Antenna Jack
on the back of the television.
For Subscribers to ScrambJed Cable TV Service
If you subscribe to a cable service that requires the use of a Converter/
Descrambler box, connect the incoming cabIe to the Converter/
Descrambler box and connect the output of the box to the Antenna
Jack on the back of the television. FoIIow the connections shown
below. Set the television to the output of the Converter/Descrambler
box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the Converter/Descrambler box to
select channels.
For Subscribers to UnscrambJed Basic Cable with
ScrarnbJed Premium Channels
If you subscribe to a cable service in which basic cable channels are
unscrambled and premium channels require the use of a Converter/
Descrambler box, you may wish to use a two-set signal splitter (some-
times called a "two-set coupler") and an A/B Switch box from the cable
instalIer or an electronics supply store. FoIIow the connections shown
below. With the switch in the "B" position, you can directly tune any
nonscrambled 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 box to tune scrambled channels.
Note:
When you use a converter box with your TV,
there may be features that you cannot
program using the remote control such as
labeling channels, b/ocking channeL% and
programming your favorite channels.
