Connections & Setup

Get the Picture

The first part of connecting your TV is to get the picture, also known as a signal. The back panel of your TV allows you to receive analog and digital channels by using the ANTENNA/CABLE INPUT.

Receiving Cable Channels

Coaxial cable

What You Need

Coaxial cable from a cable outlet. Plug the coaxial cable into the ANTENNA/CABLE INPUT to receive your analog and digital cable channels.

What You Need to Know

•This television is equipped with a QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) tuner that enables reception of unscrambled digital cable content. Check with your cable provider for information about content availability in your area. Your TV also receives analog cable TV channels.

•The Auto Channel Search screen in the Setup menu searches for both analog and digital channels. Choose Cable as your source type. To complete a channel search now, go to page 14.

•When you are ready to watch digital channels, make sure you are tuned to a digital channel. Digital stations typically have a dash in their channel number because they can contain subchannels, for example, 8-3.

When you are ready to watch an analog channel, make sure you are tuned to an analog channel. Analog stations contain no more than three digits. Refer to page 14 for information on analog and digital stations.
