How to view
programming:
• To watch cable TV or off-air TV
programs from an antenna in
this connection, press
ANTENNA on the remote
control until ANTENNA A is
displayed in the channel banner.
• To watch cable or any other
alternate RF signal, such as
digital or analog terrestrial, press
ANTENNA on the remote
control until ANTENNA B is
displayed in the channel banner.
• To watch satellite programming,
press DIRECTV on the remote
control and channel up or down
to the desired program.
How to view your VCR:
EXT
• Press INPUT on the remote
INT
control and select the video
input (in this example, VID1) in
the channel banner. Because the
digital decoder is in the TV, not
the VCR, digital channels
cannot be recorded. If an off-air
antenna is used, the VCR output
should be viewed using one of
the video inputs.
• If you've already set up auto
tuning, press the VCR1 button
on your remote control.
• NOTE: Viewing a VCR while in
AIR mode may result in poor
picture performance. Instead,
select System Options from the
main menu, then select Signal
Type and select Cable .
The ANT B and ANT A jacks
can receive digital or analog
RF signals. The illustrations
here are recommended
connections in a cable
environment.
