Connect your Cable

TV signal

 

to the single 75 ohm

INPUT plug on a two-way
Signal Splitter (optional).

 

Connect one end of RF

Coaxial Cable 

 

to each of the

OUTPUT plugs on the 75 ohm
Signal Splitter. The two lengths
of RF Coaxial Cable need F-
type connectors (screw-on or
push type) for both ends.

another connection from the
Cable Converter OUTput ter-

Y

our TV has two sepa-
rate ANT(enna)/Cable

inputs 

 

on the rear of the

set. These two signal
inputs offer convenient
hook-up options for both
normal TV program view-
ing and Picture-In-Picture
(PIP) features. 

 

The ANT(enna) A input is
intended

 

for use and view-

ing on the TV’s main
screen. Your home’s prima-
ry Antenna, or Cable TV
signal, should be connect-
ed to this input for normal
TV setup, use and feature
operation.

 

The ANT(enna) B input is
a second

 

, or auxiliary sig-

nal source, designed to
supply your TV’s Picture-
In-Picture (PIP) feature.
For many homes the use of
a single existing Antenna
(or Cable TV) source, for
both ANT A and B, will be
the preferred method of
connection. This type of
connection (optional
Signal Splitter required)
will work properly for the
TV’s Main on-screen fea-
tures, as well as retain all
the features designed for
PIP. For more details refer
to the Picture-In-Picture
section in your other
owner’s manual.

Remember,
be sure to set the
TV for the type sig-
nal you've connect-
ed (see "TUNER"
section on page 2 of
this Guide.)

Your TV can set
itself to select only
the channel numbers
on your Cable sys-
tem (see “Auto
Program" page 2). If
you use a Cable
Converter box, set
the TV to the same
channel as the con-
verter's CH 3/4
switch (on the rear of
the converter.)

connection (using a

common signal source and an
optional Signal Splitter):

 

If your Antenna or Cable TV
signal has a round cable con-
nector

 

(75 ohm) on the end,

then you're ready to connect it
to the 75ohm Signal Splitter.

 

If your antenna has flat twin-
lead wire 

 

(300 ohm), you first

need to attach the antenna wires
to the screws on a 300 to 75
ohm adapter before connecting
to the 75ohm Signal Splitter.

 

Connect your Antenna or

Cable TV

 

signal to the single

75 ohm input plug on the two-
way Signal Splitter (optional).

Then connect two lengths of RF
Coaxial Cable to the two Output
plugs on the two-way Signal
Splitter (F-type connector on
both ends).

Note: Proper operation of your TV is not dependent upon
connection of the ANT B input.

 

Its main purpose is to provide

an easily connected, dedicated picture source for PIP feature
use. Other signal source options (such as a satellite dish sys-
tem, additional external antenna, VCR, or Video Game) could
also be connected and displayed on the TV screen through the
use of the ANT B input. 

 

Note: Although the ANT B input can be used and swapped
as the source for the TV’s Main picture

 

, certain setup fea-

tures (such as Smart Clock) are only based on a signal being
detected at the ANT A input. To ensure that all features are
operating properly, you may not want to rely solely on the ANT
B input as your TV’s Main screen signal source.

 

Connect the twin Output

plugs 

 

on the Signal Splitter to

the ANT A and ANT B inputs
on the rear of the TV. Push the
round connector end of the RF
Coaxial Cable onto the
ANT(enna) plug and screw it
down tight (if using threaded
cables).
