Connecting your TV

Connecting your TV

Note: Cables are not supplied with your TV.

Coaxial cable is the cable that comes in from your antenna, cable TV service, or cable converter box. Coaxial cable uses ÒFÓ connectors.

Standard A/V (audio/video) cables usually come in sets of three, and are typically color-coded according to use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for stereo left (or mono) audio.

On your TVÕs back panel, the standard A/V connectors are color-coded in the same manner as the cables.

S-Video cable is for use with video equipment with S-Video.

Component video cables come in sets of three, and are for use with video equipment that has component video. (ColorStream¨ is ToshibaÕs brand of component video.)

DVI-D digital double-link cable is for use with video equipment that has a DVI-D digital double-link connector (see page 15).

NOTE REGARDING PICTURE QUALITY

When connecting video equipment to your Toshiba TV:

For GOOD picture quality: Use a standard yellow video cable.

For BETTER picture quality: If your equipment has S-video, use an S-video cable instead of a standard yellow video cable. (You still must connect the standard red and white audio cables for full system connection, but do not connect the standard yellow video cable at the same time, or the picture performance will be unacceptable.)

For BEST picture quality: If your equipment has component video (or DVI), use either component video cables (or a DVI cable) instead of a standard video or S-video cable. (You still must connect the standard red and white audio cables for full system connection.
