Connect Peripheral Equipment
There is a wide range of audio and video equipment that can
be connected to your TV.
The following connection diagrams show you where the different equipment should be connected at the rear side of the
TV.
Via the Euroconnector
Your TV set has a Euroconnector socket. If you want to connect
peripherals (e.g. video, decoder, etc.) which have Euroconnectors, to your TV, use SCART 1 input.
If an external device is connected via Euroconnector sockets
TV is switched to AV mode automatically. If the signal is RGB
then the RGB OSD indicator is displayed on the screen.
In AV mode if you press the “ ” button the TV status OSD is
displayed on the screen.
Via Aerial Input
If the equipment you want to connect to your TV e.g. video recorder or satellite receiver does not have a SCART socket, you
should connect it to the aerial (ANT) socket on your TV.
Decoder
Cable TV offers you a wide choice of programs. Most of them
are free, others are to be paid for by the viewer. This means that
you will need to subscribe to the broadcasting organization
whose programmes you wish to receive. This organization will
supply you with a corresponding decoder unit to allow the
programmes to be unscrambled.
For further information ask your dealer. See also the booklet
supplied with your decoder.
Connecting a decoder with an aerial socket to the TV
• Connect the aerial cable.
Connecting a decoder without an aerial socket to the
TV
• Connect the decoder to your TV with a SCART lead to
SCART 1. When your decoder has a SCART connector you
can obtain better picture quality if you connect a SCART lead
to EXTERNAL.
Search for and store the test signal of the
video recorder
• Unplug the aerial cable from the aerial socket “ANT” of your
video recorder.
• Switch on your TV and put the video recorder on the test signal. (See the handbook for your video recorder.)
• Enter the Tuning menu via the Install menu.
• Search for the test signal of your video recorder in the same
way as you searched for and stored the TV signals. See
Tuning, Search and Store TV channels. Store the test signal
under programme number 0.
• Replace the aerial cable in the aerial socket “ANT” of your
video recorder once you have stored the test signal.
Camera and Camcorder
To connect to Front-AV input
Connect your camcorder to the front of your TV.
• Connect your equipment to the TV via VIDEO (yellow), AUDIO
R (red) and AUDIO L (white) inputs. You should connect the
jacks to the input of the same colour.
Connect the decoder to the video recorder
Some video recorders have a special SCART connector for decoder.
• Connect a SCART lead to the SCART connector of your decoder and to the special SCART connector of your video recorder. See also the handbook of your video recorder.
• To connect your video recorder to the TV, see TV and Video
Recorder section.
If you want to connect more equipment to your TV, consult your
dealer.
• Then select the appropriate AV mode by pressing the “AV”
button.
TV and Video Recorder
• If your video recorder has a SCART socket please connect it
to the TV using a SCART lead. Your TV should also be connected to your video recorder using the aerial RF output
socket.
Please note using a SCART lead will produce better qualitiy
pictures.
