1. Antenna (ANT-1 MAIN, ANT-2 AUX}
ANT-1 MAIN and ANT-2 AUX can each receive both
digita] and anaiog over-the-air channeis from a VHFiUHF
antenna or non-scrambled digital/analog cable source.
Your primary viewing signal source should be connected
to ANT-1 MAIN. ANT-I MAIN must be used to view
premium subscription cable TV service authorized by the
CabteCARDTM access card. The CableCARD access card
is provided by your Iocat cable company. ANT-2 AUX can
receive over-the=air or non-scrambled cable signals.
2. IR EMITTER NetCommand ®
IR Emitters connected to these jacks are used by the
NetCommand system of the TV to control external analog
devices such as cable boxes, VCRs, DVDs, satellite
receivers and audio receivers. This system is also
coordinated with the TV Guide On Screen@ system for
the control of cable boxes and to activate the record
feature of your VCR. Either connection can be used for
NetCommand functions.
3. INPUT 1 and 2
(Audio/Video 1 and 2}
Inputs 1 and 2 can be used for the connection of a VCR,
Super VHS (S-VHS) VCR, DVD player, standard satellite
receiver or other A/V device to the TV. Please note that
if S-VIDEO and VIDEO are available for the input, you
must choose to connect only one. They cannot both be
connected at the same time.
4. COMPONENT 1, 2, and 3 Inputs
YPbPr (480i/480p/720pi1080i}
These inputs can be used for the connection of devices with
component video outputs, such as a DVD piayer, externaI
HDTV receiver, or compatible video game system. Please
see Appendix A for signal compatibility.
5. DVl AnaJog Audio
Uniike HDMI, DVl does not carry audio information on the
same cable. Use these analog stereo audio inputs when
using the HDMI input with a device that outputs [}"71instead
of HDMI, such as DVl output from a personal computer.
6. AUDIO OUTPUT, RECORD OUTPUT
AUDIO OUTPUT sends analog audio of the program
currently shown on the screen to an A/V surround sound
receiver or stereo system. Digital audio from digital
channels, FireWire@ (DTV LinkiEEE 1894) devices and
HDMI devices is converted to analog audio by the TV. If
you do not have a digital A/V receiver, this should be the
only audio connection between the TV and your analog
AiV receiver or stereo system.
RECORD OUTPUT sends analog audio and video to
a VCR for recording purposes. These signals may not
be the same as those of the program that is currently
16 Chapter 1. Television Overview
TV Back Panel, continued
being shown on screen. Signals from digital channels
and FireWire (IEEE 1394) devices are converted to analog
signals. There is no video signal when copy restrictions
are in effect. Audio alone is output when a Component
input or the HDMI input is selected for recording.
7. HDMI TM 1 and 2
The HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports
uncompressed standard and high-definition digital video
formats and PCM digital audio format.
Use these inputs to connect to EIA/CEA-861 compliant
devices such as a high-definition receiver or DVD player.
These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i video
formats.
These inputs can also be used as a DVI connection with
separate analog audio inputs. An optional HDMPto-DVI
adaptor or cable is necessary to make this connection
and may be available from your local electronics retailer.
When using the optional HDMPto-DVI adapter, the DVI
analog audio inputs on your TV allow you to receive left
and right audio from your DVI device.
This input is HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy
Protection) compiianL
HDMI 2
HDMI 2 aiso aiiows the TV to display DVI or HDMI output
from a PC. To view PC video on the TV, you must activate
the PC option in NetCommand. You can do this during
initial NetCommand setup by selecting the PC option
in the Device Setup screen. To do this at any time
afterwards, use the NetCommand Add function.
To listen to audio from a PC when using PC DVI output,
you must connect the PC audio output to the TV's DVI
Analog Audio 2, located above the HDMI 2 inpuL
8. DTV LinkTM/IEEE 1394
These jacks allow the TV to connect to external IEEE 1394
digital products by means of a single cable. Two jacks
are provided for this purpose, which allow for a high
degree of flexibility for connecting your NetCommand
controlled system. Detailed information regarding
IEEE 1394 connection requirements is in Chapter 2,

The CableCARD access card from your cable TV service
provider is inserted into this sloL The top of the card
should face in the direction indicated by CARD TOP ,A.
CableCARD is a nationwide standard system that allows
your local cable TV provider to supply you with an
access card customized to your account. This card
allows the TV to receive, decode and unscramble the
premium digital channels included in your cable TV
subscription without the use of a cable box. See page
23 for additional CableCARD information and activation
instructions.
If your cable company is not currently offering
CableCARD access cards, you will need to use a
cable box provided and authorized by your local cable
company to view scrambled channels.
10. DigitaJ Audio Output
This output sends Dolby@ Digital or PCM digital audio to
your digital A/V surround sound receiver. Analog audio
from analog channels and devices is converted by the
TV to PCM digital audio. In most cases, this should be
the only audio connection between the TV and your AiV
receiver. If you have MP3 audio from memory cards,
however, you need to connect the TV's analog AUDIO
OUTPUT (left and right) to your AiV receiver.

Connecting E×temai Devices and NetCommand® Setup
NetCommand is able to control many current audio and video devices by sending remote control signals from the TV to
each device through IR emitters. Additionally, it can barn the remote control signals used by most audio video devices
not already in the TV's memory. NetCommand can automatically switch the TV and compatible or learned Audio/Video
(A/V) Receivers to the correct input used with each device. It is important that the inputs on the TV and AiV receiver
back panels match the NetCommand setup that is displayed on screen.
To simplify the installation of NetCommand, there is a step-by-step on-screen NetCommand Setup procedure in this
chapter, which details the type and brands of devices you are connecting to the TV. The NetCommand Setup also
assigns preset TV and AiV receiver inputs for each device. You should connect each device to the TV input (both audio
and video) and to the AiV receiver (audio) as shown in the figure below. If you connect devices to inputs other than the
ones shown as presets, you must change the NetCommand setup accordingly. See the Edit NetCommand information
starting on page 45.

CabJeOARD TechnoJogy
CableCARD is a nationwide system standard that allows
your local cable TV provider to supply you with an access
card customized to your account. This card allows your
TV to receive, decode and unscramble the premium
digital channels included in your cable TV subscription
without the use of a cable box. It also allows your
cable provider to automatically update and change your
subscription. When you move to a new cable provider's
area, you simply return the CableCARD to the original
cable provider and get a new card from your new cable
provider_
Please note that CableOARD is a new technology and
your local cable provider may not currently be offering
this service. As time passes, this system wiii become
broadly supported by most cable providers.
The CableCARD system is "unidirectional" which means
your cable provider can send updates to the access
card and TV, however, the TV cannot send back signals
such as requests for Video-On-Demand or Pay-per-View
programs by remote control
Digital cable channels authorized by the CableCARD
wiii be available on the Firewire® IEEE 1394 network
and can be shared by other products on the networL
Some digital channels or programs may not be copied
or recorded because of copy restriction limits set by the
content owners or copyright holders_
The digital television is capable of receiving analog
basic, digital basic, and digital premium cable
television programming by direct connection to a
cable system providing such programming. A security
card (CabieCARD) provided by your cable operator is
required to view encrypted digital programming. Certain
advanced and interactive digital cable services, such as
video-on-demand, a cable operator's enhanced program
guide, and data-enhanced television services, may
require the use of a set-top box. For more information,
call your local cable operator.
