Front A/V Panel
There are four jacks on the front of
your Entertainment Machine that make
connecting Audio/Video devices like video
games and camcorders very simple.
The jacks are located behind a small door
beside the buttons on the front panel.
The jacks are like those found in the jack
pack on the back of your Entertainment
Machine. This means that most equipment
that connects to those types of jacks in
the rear jack pack, can also be connected
in front.
To use the front jacks as the signal source,
use the Screen Source menu as described
on page 30. They will be named “Front
Video” in the Screen Source menu.

from various types of
equipment.

If you receive your RF signal
through an antenna that is several
years old and connects with two
small prongs, you will need to purchase a 300 to 75 Ohm adapter. It
should be available from your local
electronics dealer.
Zenith recommends using a 75
ohm cable for your antenna connections in order to prevent interference.
If you wish to use your antenna to
receive both analog and digital
signals, you will need to purchase
a signal splitter. Please see onscreen setup guide on the following page.

Some cable services require the use of a cable box to decode premium channels and pay-per-view. Using the Loop Out to Decoder
option, and programming your remote, you can connect your cable
box so that you only need your MBR remote to control all the
channels. By connecting cable directly to your Entertainment
Machine, then running it out to the cable box and back, you make
the cable box another source to choose from in the Source selection on your remote.
To receive premium channels, run
Auto Program on the second source
that is set to receive channels.

This is just a general room design.
Any number of set-ups are possible,
and some changes may be needed
to maximize your sound. However, a
Dolby Digital Receiver is needed for
5.1 channel audio.
A left and right speaker on either
side of the set enhances separation.
The Entertainment Machine “center
mode in,” makes the dialog sound
as thought it’s coming directly from
the Entertainment Machine. The rear
surround sound speakers provide
the majority of other sounds, like
those from special effects in movies.
Your sub-woofer generates ultra-low
frequency sound, for rumbling
low-end audio.
Sound is affected by
speaker placement, so
make sure nothing is in
front of the speakers, and
that they are aimed in
appropriate directions.
You have the option of
turning on or off the internal
speakers.
