Using Cablecard Tm; Service; Tm Service - Sony WEGA KDE-37XS955 Operating Instructions Manual

CableCARD
TM
provides cable subscribers with access to digitally encrypted
cable channels without the need tBr a set-top box that will enable you to
receive not only standard definition but also high definition television. The
CableCARD
TM,
which is provided by your cable TV company, is inserted into
the TV's rear panel CableCARD
TM
slot. After the service is activated with
your cable TV company, the card replaces the need t_r a separate set-top box.
If you are planning to use a separate cable box for digital cable TV services,
you may be able to receive pro_amming using this TV with the
CableCARD
TM
instead except in the following circumstances:
Your cable TV company does not provide CableCARD
TM
service in your
viewing area.
You want to access your cable TV company's interactive or advanced
features (such as video-on-demand or, in some cases, pay-per-view). At
this time, these services require a bidirectional link, which are only
available through the use of a separate set-top box. CabteCARD
TM
is
currently a unidirectional device only, and cannot provide these
advanced services.
Check with your cable TV company for CableCARD
TM
service details,
limitations, pricing, and availability, all of which are determined by your
cable TV company not Sony.
