External Connection
These instructions assume that you have already connected your TV to an antenna or a
cable TV system. Skip step 1 if you have not yet connected to an antenna or a cable
system.
Follow the instructions in Viewing a VCR or Camcorder Tape to view your VCR tape.
Each VCR has a different back panel configuration.
When connecting a VCR, match the color of the connection terminal to the cable.
We recommend the use of cables with a Ferrite Core.
1. Unplug the cable or antenna from the back of the TV.
2. Connect the cable or antenna to the ANT IN terminal on the back of the VCR.
3. Connect an RF Cable between the ANT OUT terminal on the VCR and the ANT IN
terminal on the TV.
4. Connect a Video Cable between the VIDEO OUT jack on the VCR and the VIDEO IN
jack on the TV.
5. Connect Audio Cables between the AUDIO OUT jacks on the VCR and the AUDIO L and
AUDIO R jacks on the TV.
If you have a mono (non-stereo) VCR, use a Y-connector (not supplied) to hook up to
the right and left audio input jacks of the TV. If your VCR is stereo, you must connect
two cables.
This connection can only be made if there is a HDMI Output connector on the external
device.
What is HDMI?
HDMI, or high-definition multimedia interface, is a next-generation interface that enables
the transmission of digital audio and video signals using a single cable without
compression.
Multimedia interface is a more accurate name for it especially because it allows multiple
channels of digital audio (5.1 channels).
The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size, has the
HDCP(High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed, and supports
multi-channel digital audio.
Each DVD player/STB has a different back panel configuration.
We recommend the use of cables with a Ferrite Core.
1. Connect an HDMI Cable between the HDMI connector on the TV and the
HDMI connector on the DVD player/Set-Top Box.
