CHAPTER 1

Connecting an Antenna/Cable and VCR to Your

Your TV will provide you with the best performance if you connect it to an external antenna or cable system. Follow the directions below to make this connection. Please note that you will normally only have to make one of the connections shown below, not all of them.

All connections will be made to the antenna terminal on the back of your TV. The antenna terminal is a silver metal post partially surrounded by two plastic tabs. For help in locating the antenna terminal, see “Your TV’s Back View” on page 7.

Connecting

a single coaxial lead, cable onto the antenna

your TV.

If your antenna ends in a pair of 300 ohm twin leads, you must use a 300-ohm/75-ohm adapter. Place the leads underneath the screws on the adapter, tighten the screws, then press the adapter onto the antenna terminal on the back of the TV.

3 Chapter 1 : Connecting an Antenna/Cable and VCR to Your TV

Antennas with two sets of leads

You might have two sets of leads from your antenna system, especially if you have one antenna for VHF signals and one antenna for UHF signals.

If your antenna system has both a coaxial lead and twin 300-ohm leads, you must obtain a combiner (available at your local electronics store). Press or screw the coaxial lead onto the combiner; place the twin leads underneath the screws on the combiner and tighten the screws. Press the cable from combiner onto the antenna terminal on the back of your TV.

If your antenna system has two sets of twin 300-ohm leads, you must obtain a combiner (available at your local electronics store). Place one set of twin leads underneath the screws on the combiner and tighten the screws. Do the same with the other set of twin leads. Press the cable from the combiner onto antenna terminal on the back of your TV.

Connecting a cable system

If your cable set-up is not described below, please contact your cable company information.

If your cable system does not require the use of a cable box, simply press or screw the incoming cable onto the antenna terminal on the back your TV.

Chapter 1 : Connecting an Antenna/Cable and VCR to Your TV 4

If your cable system requires you to use a converter box for all channels, connect the incoming cable to the IN terminal on the converter box. Connect another cable between the OUT terminal on the converter box and the antenna terminal on the TV. You will need to keep your TV tuned to channel 3 or 4 and change channels using the converter box.

If your cable system only requires you to use a converter box for some channels (i. e. pay-TV channels), follow these steps: Find the primary incoming coaxial cable. Plug this cable into a splitter (available at your local electronics store). Connect one coaxial cable between one OUT terminal on the splitter and the IN terminal on the converter box. Connect another coaxial cable between the other OUT terminal on the splitter and the B-IN terminal on an A/B switch (available at your local electronics store.) Connect a third coaxial cable between the OUT terminal on the converter box and the A-IN terminal on the A/B switch. Finally, connect a coaxial cable between the OUT terminal on the A/B switch and the antenna terminal on the back of your TV.
