TV / Cable TV Connections

Connecting to TV or Cable TV

1.Confirm your display is equipped with a TV tuner. You can tell by looking at the connection jacks located on the back of the display. If there is a threaded-screw type of connector (called the RF connector), then you have a TV tuner. If you do not see this type of connector, then you do not have a TV tuner installed.

2.Connect the RF cable from the antenna or cable socket to the RF connector labeled as “ANT” on the back of the dis-

play.

Notes:

You can still receive TV or Cable TV reception without the TV tuner if you have a VCR with a built-in TV tuner con- nected to the back of the display. See instructions included in your VCR for instructions on how to attach a VCR to this display.

Important Safety Instructions: Outdoor Antenna Grounding

If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the TV receiver, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built-up static charges.

Section 810 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, loca- tion of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding elec- trodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode. Example of antenna grounding as per National Electrical Code is as the right picture.
