Connecting your TV

Note: One TheaterLink cable is included with your TV. All other required cables, if not provided with your other devices, can be purchased at many electronics accessory suppliers.

Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your antenna, cable TV service, and/or cable converter box to the ANT-1 and/or ANT-2 RF inputs on your TV.

Standard A/V cables (composite video) usually come in sets of three, and are for use with video devices with standard audio and standard (composite) video output. These cables (and the related inputs on your TV) are typically color-coded according to use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for stereo left (or mono) audio.

S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video output. Separate audio cables are required for a complete connection.

Note: An S-video cable provides better picture performance than a composite video cable.

Component video cables come in sets of three and are for use with video devices with component video output. These cables are typically color-coded red, green, and blue. (ColorStream¨ is ToshibaÕs brand of component video.) Separate audio cables are required for a complete connection.

Note: Component video cables provide better picture performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video cable.

HDMI cable is for use with devices with uncompressed HDMI (high- definition multimedia interface) audio/video output. HDMI cable delivers digital audio and video in its native format (see page 16). This cable carries both video and audio information; therefore, no separate audio cables are needed for a complete connection.

Note: HDMI cable provides better picture performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video cable.

TheaterLink cable is used to remotely control other A/V equipment (equipped with an infrared sensor) through the TV (see page 17).
