Connecting your TV

Connecting your TV

Note: One TheaterLink cable is provided with your TV. No other cables are provided.

￿Coaxial cable is the cable that comes in from your antenna, cable TV service, or cable converter box. Coaxial cable has 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. Your TVÕs standard A/V inputs are color-coded in the same manner as the cables.

￿S-video cable is for use with video equipment that has an S-Video connector.

￿Component video cables come in sets of three (typically color-coded red, green, and blue), and are for use with video equipment that has component video connectors. Your TVÕs ColorStream¨ (component video) inputs are color-coded in the same manner as the cables.

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

￿TheaterLink cable is used to remotely control other A/V equipment (equipped with an infrared sensor) through the TV (see page 16).

NOTE REGARDING PICTURE QUALITY

When connecting video equipment to your Toshiba TV:

￿For GOOD picture quality: Use a standard A/V (yellow) video cable.

￿For BETTER picture quality: If your equipment has an S-video connector, 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 a 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 connectors, use component video cables instead of a standard yellow video cable or an S-video cable (plus the standard red and white audio cables for full system connection.) If your equipment has a DVI-D digital single-link connector, use a DVI-D cable (plus standard red and white audio cables connected to the audio terminals labeled ÒFor DVI/HDCP INÓ for full system connection).

This connection allows you to watch TV programs or basic cable channels.
