INTRODUCTION

Unpacking HDTV Receiver and Accessories/Connection Overview

Audio/Video Jacks and Cables

The Audio/Video jacks provide excellent picture and sound quality. They are used for making most Audio/Video connections between components. The Audio/Video jacks may be color coded (yellow for video, red for right audio, and white for left audio). If your component has only one input for audio (mono), connect it to the left (white L/mono) audio jack on the HDTV Receiver.

Component Out Jacks and Cables

Component Cables are used to connect the HDTV Receiver to an industry standard YPbPr compatible HD Monitor (green for Y, blue for Pb, and red for Pr). Remember to connect the left and right audio cables. The YPbPr Component jacks carry only the picture signals, not the sound.

ANT LOOP OUT Jack, and RF Cable

ANT LOOP OUT provides an RF connection between the HDTV Receiver and the TV and provides the signal of ANT IN jack to TV.

Remote Control

In addition to the HDTV Receiver, the remote control can be programmed to control many other devices.

Batteries

To install the batteries, slide open the battery compartment and insert the two AA batteries provided.

Make sure you have received all the accessories listed below with the High Definition Television Receiver.

Antenna Connections

Connect the “Antenna” to the “ANT IN” jack on the HDTV Receiver using a coaxial RF cable.

ote

There might be some areas where the signal strength could be too high. If so, you may need to connect the antenna to an attenuator. Screw the attenuator onto the “ANT IN” jack.

Connect the “ANT LOOP OUT” jack on the HDTV Receiver to the “Antenna In” jack on your TV using a coaxial RF cable.

Before Connecting Your Antenna

During initial installation and setup of your HDTV Receiver, you may need to install a 10 dB attenuator to the Antenna input “ANT IN” on the LST-3100A. The LST-3100A is a high performance, high-gain system intended for operation under normal and weak signal conditions, providing the best reception with its optimum gain. However, there might be some reception areas where the signal strength is too high (e.g. due to close proximity to an undesirable signal or transmitter), so you need an attenuator that lowers the incoming signal strength (from the undesirable transmitter) to more normal levels. This 10 dB attenuator should be used only in a reception area where the undesired signal strength is too high. One of the possible symptoms would be that after your program/channel search, your HDTV receiver does not find all the local digital terrestrial channels available in your area. (You can find HDTV channels/content information for your local broadcast area by going to Zenith website

“WWW.ZENITH.COM” and clicking on “HDTV Program Schedule” under HDTV.) Please make sure that before

deciding to use an optional attenuator device, you are using an appropriate and properly aligned UHF/VHF RF terrestrial antenna.

Programming the Remote Control to Operate Other Devices

The HDTV Receiver remote control is a multi-brand or universal remote control that can be programmed to operate most remote-controllable devices from other manufacturers.

ote

The remote control may not be able to control all models of other brands.

Test your remote control.

To find out whether your remote control can operate a device without programming, turn on the device such as a VCR and select the corresponding mode (VCR) by pressing MODE on the remote control while pointing at the device. Use the POWER and CH +/– buttons to see if the device responds properly. If not, the remote control requires programming.

Turn on the device to be programmed. Then select the corresponding mode (VCR, AUX, TV, DVD or STB) by pressing MODE on the remote control.

Press the POWER button and the MUTE button simultaneously.

The remote control is now ready to program the code for the device.

There are two ways to find the correct code for the device. First, if you press the CH + buttons repeatedly, the codes will change

one at-a-time. If the right code is found, the device will turn off. Second, enter the code number using the number buttons on the remote control. The right code numbers for the corresponding device can be found on the following pages. If the code is correct, the device will turn off.

Press the EXIT button to store the programming code.

Test the remote control functions to see if the device responds properly. If not, repeat from step 2.
