Connections and Setup

Choose Your Connection

There are several ways to connect your HDTV, depending on the devices you want to connect and the quality of the signal you want to achieve. The HDMI/DVI and component jacks are considered excellent; S-Video is very good; composite jacks are good, while connecting devices to the Antenna or Cable input is fair.

Please use the following chart to determine which connection is best for you. Cables may be ordered separately by calling the number on page 86. Proceed to the appropriate page and connect your TV.

Note for U.S. Customers: If you prefer, we can provide you with the name of an Authorized Service Representative who will visit your home for a fee to install your electronic entertainment system and to instruct you in its operation. For details about this service, call 1-888-206-3359. For additional assistance while using your RCA Scenium product, please visit www.rcascenium.com.
