Cable Box Connections

Installing and Connecting the Projection TV

Cable Box and Cable

This is the preferred basic cable TV hookup to use if:

0Your cable TV company scrambles some channels, but not all of them (pay channels vs. regular cable channels) and you need to use a cable box, and

0 You want to enjoy the Twin View feature.

With this setup you can:

0Use the projection TV remote control to change channels using your cable box when the signal is scrambled.

0Use the projection TV remote control to change channels using your projection TV when the signal is not scrambled. (Your projection TV’s tuner provides a better signal than the cable box.)

0Use the Twin View feature. (When all channels are routed through your cable box, only one channel is sent to the projection TV, so you can not use the Twin View or Channel Index features for your cable box.)

1 Connect the Cable TV cable to the projection TV’s VHF/UHF jack.

2Using a coaxial cable, connect the projection TV’s TO CONVERTER jack to the cable box’s IN jack. The projection TV’s internal converter allows you to switch between unscrambled signals coming straight into the projection TV and scrambled signals coming in through the cable box, eliminating the need for an external splitter.

3Using a coaxial cable, connect the cable box’s OUT jack to the projection TV’s AUX jack.
