AC-INLET
Connecting the Antenna (For NTSC Systems)
Connecting CATV
Your BenQ television has an in ternal 75 ohm coaxial cable connector, so antennal hook-up is
very easy.When connecting a 75-ohm coaxial cable to your BenQ television, secure it firmly to
the ANT connector. Some cable television companies provide "pay per view" programming.
Since the signal for these paid channels is encoded, most cable television companies provide
their own tuners/ decoders. You must install a tuner/ decoder to be able to view locked encoded
programming. If you require special instructions on how to install cable service, please contact
your cable television provider. The tuner/decoder provided by your cable television company
can be used according to the following instructions.
Please note: you must have an RF switch with two inputs (A and B) (not supplied).
The "A" input on the RF switch (not supplied) allows you to use the television's channel selector
button to view unlocked channels. The "B" input on the RF switch (not supplied) allows you to
use the channel selection button on your cable box to view locked encoded programming via the
tuner/decoder.

ANTENNA
The antenna equipment has far more effect on reception for color televisions than on black and
white models. We suggest you use a good-quality outdoor antenna. Following are simple
explanations for the connection of various types of antennas.
1. Generally speaking, 75 ohm systems have a
round cable with an F-shaped connector
which requires no tools. Attach the cable
directly to the input (not included).
2. 300 ohm systems have a flat "dual lead" type
cable. A 300-75 ohm transformer may be
used to attach the antenna to a 75 ohm input
(not included).
Installation of an Outdoor Antenna
If an outdoor antenna is required, use any of the following.
A: Use a combination VHF/UHF outdoor antenna.
B: Use separate VHF and/ or UHF outdoor antennas.
Connect the lead from the outdoor antenna to the ANT input on the rear of the television.
