Connecting to an antenna

To enjoy the terrestrial signal transmitted by your local TV station, you need an indoor or outdoor antenna (not supplied). Perfect picture quality requires a good signal and generally means that an outdoor antenna

must be used. The exact type and location of the antenna will depend on your particular area. Consult your

local dealer or service personnel for best advice. If you are a subscriber of your local CATV net, the outdoor

or indoor antenna is not needed. Connect the equipments as the following figure.

Preparation for Using your new TV

Connecting to a cable converter box

This television has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a cable

company supplied converter box. Some cable companies offer premium pay channels in which signal is scrambled. Descrambling these signals for normal viewing requires the use of a descrambler device which

is generally provided by the cable company.

For subscribers to Basic Cable TV Service

For basic cable service not requiring a Converter/Descrambler box, connect the CATV 75 ohm Coaxial Cable directly to the Antenna Jack on the back of the television.

For subscribers to Scrambled Cable TV Service

If you subscribe to a cable service which requires the use of a Converter/Descrambler box, connect the incoming cable to the Converter/Descrambler box and connect the output of the box to the Antenna Jack on the back of the television. Follow the connections shown below. Set the television to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box(usually channel 3 or 4)and use the Converter/Descrambler box to select channels.

For Subscribers to Unscrambled Basic Cable with Scrambled Premium Channels

If you subscribe to a cable service in which basic cable channels are unscrambled and premium channels require the use of a Converter/Descrambled box, you may wish to use a two-set signal splitter(sometimes called[two set coupler) and an A/B Switch box from the cable installer or an electronics supply store. Follow the connections shown below. With the switch in the B position, you can directly tune any nonscrambled channels on your TV. With the switch in theA position, tune your TV to the output of the Converter/Descrambler box(usually channel 3 or 4) and use the box to tune scrambled channels.
