This TV/DVD has an extended tuning range and can tune most cable channels without using a Cable TV converter box.
Some cable companies offer “premium pay channels” in which the 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 basic cable service not requiring a converter/descrambler
box, connect the Cable TV 75 ohm coaxial cable directly to the
Antenna jack on the back of the TV/DVD.
For subscribers to scrambled cable TV service
If you subscribe to a cable TV service which requires the use of a converter/descrambler box, connect the
incoming 75 ohm coaxial cable to the converter/descrambler box. Using another 75 ohm coaxial cable, connect
the output jack of the converter/descrambler box to the antenna jack on the TV/DVD. Follow the connections
shown below. Set the TV/DVD to the output channel 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 TV service with scrambled
premium channels
If you subscribe to a cable TV service in which basic channels are unscrambled and premium channels require
the use of a converter/descrambler box, you may wish to use a signal splitter and an A/B Switch box (available
from the cable company 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/DVD. With the switch in the “A”
position, tune your TV/DVD to the output of the converter/descrambler box (usually channel 3 or 4) and use the
converter/descrambler box to tune scrambled channels.
You can enjoy VCR, camcorder or TV game with connection to external input.

About HDMI
HDMI (High Defi nition Multimedia Interface) supports both video
and audio on a single digital connection for use with DVD players,
DTV, set-top boxes, and other AV devices. HDMI was developed
to provide the technologies of High Bandwidth Digital Content
Protection (HDCP) as well as Digital Visual Interface (DVI) in one
specifi cation. HDCP is used to protect digital content transmitted
and received by DVI-compliant or HDMI-compliant displays.
HDMI has the capability to support standard, enhanced, or highdefi nition video plus standard to multi-channel surround-sound
audio. HDMI features include uncompressed digital video, a
bandwidth of up to 2.2 gigabytes per second (with HDTV signals),
one connector (instead of several cables and connectors), and
communication between the AV source and AV devices such as
DTVs.
