Cable connections for watching digital and/or conventional TV channels

This system is equipped with two terminals for inputting TV broadcasting signals, ANT/CABLE A IN and ANT B IN. The ANT/CABLE A IN terminal accepts both digital and conventional TV broadcasting signals while the ANT B IN terminal accepts only conventional TV broadcasting signals. When using cable TV to watch digital and/or conventional TV channels, connect to the ANT/CABLE A IN terminal as shown. To add an outdoor antenna for clearer pictures, connect an antenna to the ANT B IN terminal. If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial cable with an F-type connector, plug it into the antenna terminal at the rear of the Plasma Display.

NOTE

Connect coaxial cables as shown above. Signal reception may fail if cables are connected improperly.

In order to watch cable TV channels, be sure to connect the cable to the ANT/CABLE A IN terminal.

The ANT/CABLE A IN and ANT B IN terminals must not receive the same signals. For example, do not connect the cable TV line to both the ANT/CABLE A IN and ANT B IN terminals. Similarly, do not connect an antenna cable to both the ANT/CABLE A IN and ANT B IN terminals.

The TV Guide On Screen™ system may not be available in all areas and is not available with satellite systems. In addition, as content providers move to digital programming and broadcasting, TV Guide data may be unavailable or become unavailable.
