our home’s signal input might come from
a single (75 ohm) round cable, a

Converter Box, or from an antenna. In either
case the connection to the TV is very easy.

If your Cable TV signal or
Antenna signal is a round cable

(75 ohm) then you're ready to con-
nect to the TV.

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.

If you have a Cable Converter
Box:

Connect the Cable TV signal

to the Cable Signal IN(put) plug on
the Converter.

2

Connect the Cable TV

cable or

Antenna cable (or 300 to 75 ohm
adapter) to the 75

plug on the TV.

omponent Video inputs provide for the
highest possible color and picture resolu-

tion in the playback of digital signal source
material, such as with DVD players. The
color difference signals (Pb, Pr) and the
luminance (Y) signal are connected and
received separately, which allows for
improved color bandwidth information (not
possible when using composite video or S-
Video connections).

1

Connect the Component (Y, Pb,
Pr) Video  OUT 

jacks from the

DVD player (or similar device) to the
(Y, Pb, Pr) in(put) jack on the TV.
When using the Component Video
Inputs, it is best not to connect a sig-
nal to the AV in Video Jack.

2

Connect the red and white
AUDIO CABLES 

to the Audio

(left and right) output jacks on the
rear of the accessory device to the
Audio (L and R) AV In Input Jacks
on the TV.

3

Turn the TV and the DVD (or
digital accessory device) ON.

4

Press the AV button or the CH
+ or CH – buttons 

to scroll the

available channels until CVI appears
in the upper left corner of the TV
screen.

5

Insert a DVD disc into the DVD
player and 

press the PLAY 

button on the DVD Player.

The description for the component video con-
nectors may differ depending on the DVD player
or accessory digital source equipment used (for
example,Y, Pb, Pr;Y, B-Y, R-Y;Y, Cr, Cb). Although
abbreviations and terms may vary, the letters 

b

and 

stand for the blue and red color compo-

nent signal connectors, and 

Y

indicates the lumi-

nance signal. Refer to your DVD or digital
accessory owner’s manual for definitions and
connection details.
