Hook-up Cables and Connectors

First time use

6

Most video/audio connections between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables that have phono connectors. For best performance, video cables should use 75-Ohm coaxial shielded wire. Cables can be purchased from most stores that sell audio/video products. Below are illustrations and names of common connectors. Before purchasing any cables, be sure of the output and input connector types required by the various components and the length of each cable.

300-Ohm Twin Lead Connector

This outdoor antenna cable must be connected to an antenna adapter (300-Ohm to 75-Ohm).

Phono Connector

Used on all standard video and audio cables which connect to inputs and outputs located on the television’s rear jack panel and side control panel.

“F” Type 75-Ohm Coaxial Antenna Connector

For connecting RF signals (antenna or cable TV) to the antenna jack on the television.

S-Video (Super Video) Connector

This connector is used on camcorders, VCRs and laser- disc players with an S-Video feature in place of the standard video cable to produce a high quality picture.

Optical Cable

This cable is used to connect to an audio amplifier with an Optical Audio In jack. Use this cable for the best sound quality.

IR Mouse Cable/G-LINK Cable (Provided)

Connect the IR Mouse to the IR Blaster output of your LCD Television when A/V Network is used. You must place the IR Mouse in front of the corresponding IR window of your cable box and VCR. This connection allows your TV, and the TV Guide On ScreenTM system, to control your cable box and/or VCR.

USB Cable

This cable is used to connect your digital camera to the

Photo Input in the side of the LCD television.

HDMI Cable

This cable is used to connect your external devices such as Set-Top-Boxes or DVD players equipped with an HDMI output connection to the TV’s HDMI input.

ANTENNA CONNECTIONS TO REAR JACK PANEL

VHF (75-Ohm) antenna/CATV (Cable TV)

When using a 75-Ohm coaxial cable system, connect CATV coaxial cable to the CABLE (75-Ohm) terminal. If you have an antenna, connect the coaxial cable to the AIR terminal.

VHF (300-Ohm) antenna/UHF antenna

When using a 300-Ohm twin lead from an outdoor antenna, connect the VHF or UHF antenna leads to screws of the VHF or UHF adapter. Plug the adapter into the antenna terminal on the TV.

When both VHF and UHF antennas are connected

Attach an optional antenna cable mixer to the TV antenna terminal, and connect the cables to the antenna mixer. Consult your dealer or service store for the antenna mixer.
