CONNECTIONS
Connecting VHF and UHF Antennas
If your antenna has a set of leads that look like the diagram to the right, see ‘Antennas with 300
Ω Flat Twin Leads’ below.
If your antenna has one lead that looks like the diagram to the right, see ‘Antennas with 75 Ω
Round Leads’.
If you have two antennas, see ‘Separate VHF and UHF Antennas’.
Antennas with 300 Ω Flat Twin Leads
If you are using an off-air antenna (such as a roof antenna or ‘rabbit ears’) that has 300Ω twin
flat leads, follow the directions below.
1.
Place the wires from the twin leads under the screws on a 300-75 Ω adapter (not
supplied). Use a screwdriver to tighten the screws.
2.
Plug the adaptor into the
ANT IN
terminal on the back of the TV.
Antennas with 75 Ω Round Leads
Plug the antenna lead into the
ANT IN
terminal on the back of the TV.
Separate VHF and UHF Antennas
If you have two separate antennas for your TV (one VHF and one UHF), you must combine
the two antenna signals before connecting the antennas to the TV. This procedure requires an
optional combiner-adaptor (available at most electronics shops).
1.
Connect both antenna leads to the combiner.
2.
Plug the combiner into the
ANT IN
terminal on the bottom of the rear panel.
Connecting Cable TV
To connect to a cable TV system, follow the instructions below.
Cable without a Cable Box
Plug the incoming cable into the
ANT IN
terminal on the back of the TV.
Because this TV is cable-ready, you do not need a cable box to view unscrambled cable
channels.
Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles All Channels
1.
Find the cable that is connected to the ANT OUT terminal on your cable box.
This terminal might be labeled ‘ANT OUT’, ‘VHF OUT’ or simply, ‘OUT’.
2.
Connect the other end of this cable to the
ANT IN
terminal on the back of the TV.
