Setup
Cable Box and Cable
Only
For best results, use this connection if:
s
Your cable company scrambles some channels, such as premium
channels (which requires you to use a cable box), but does not scramble
all channels.
s
You do not have a VCR. (If you have a VCR, see pages 30 and 32.)
With this connection you can:
s
Use the TV remote control to change channels coming through the cable
box to the TV’s AUX input jack. (You must first program the remote
control for your specific cable box; see “Programming the Remote
Control” on page 54.)
s
Use the TV remote control to change channels coming directly into the
TV’s VHF/UHF input. (The TV’s tuner provides a better signal than the
cable box.)
About Using This Connection with Dual Picture (Twin View, etc.) Features
With this connection, you can use all the dual picture features for unscrambled
channels coming directly into the TV’s VHF/UHF input jack.
However, you can use only some of the dual picture features for channels coming
through the cable box to the TV’s AUX input jack. For example, when you switch
the TV’s input to AUX — to select the cable box input — the picture displays only
in the left window. For example, if you turn on Twin View, you can watch cable
channels coming into the VHF/UHF jack in the right window, but you cannot swap
the pictures between the left and right windows.
