HOOK-UP CABLES AND CONNECTORS

Most video/audio connections between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables that have phono connectors. For best performance, video cables should use 75-Ohm coaxial shielded wire. Cables can be purchased from most stores that sell audio/video products. Below are illustrations and names of common connectors. Before purchasing any cables, be sure of the output and input connector types required by the various components and the length of each cable.

FIRST TIME USE

300-Ohm Twin Lead Connector

This outdoor antenna cable must be connected to an antenna adapter (300-Ohm to 75-Ohm).

Phono Connector

Used on all standard video and audio cables which connect to inputs and outputs located on the television’s rear jack panel and front control panel.

IR Mouse Cable (Provided)

Connect the IR Mouse Cable to the IR BLASTER output of your TV when using the AV Network feature. You must place the IR mouse transmitter in front of the IR sensor of your external components. This connection allows your TV to control your external components without using your external component’s remote control.

IEEE1394 Cable

This cable is used to connect your digital television to external digital devices.

“F”Type 75-Ohm Coaxial Antenna Connector

For connecting RF signals (antenna or cable TV) to the antenna jack on the television.

S-Video (Super Video) Connector

This connector is used on camcorders, VCRs and laser- disc players with an S-Video feature in place of the standard video cable to produce a high quality picture.

Digital Visual Interface (DVI) Connection Cable

This cable is used to connect external devices with DVI-HDTV output capability.

Optical Cable

This cable is used to connect to an audio amplifier with an Optical Audio In jack. Use this cable for the best sound quality.

ANTENNA CONNECTIONS TO REAR JACK PANEL

VHF (75-Ohm) antenna/CATV (Cable TV)

When using a 75-Ohm coaxial cable system, connect the outdoor antenna or CATV coaxial cable to the ANT A (75-Ohm) terminal. If you have a second antenna or cable TV system, connect the coaxial cable to the ANT B terminal.

To receive HDTV programs via the outdoor antenna or an un-encrypted digital Cable connection, connect to ANT C (DTV).

VHF (300-Ohm) antenna/UHF antenna

When using a 300-Ohm twin lead from an outdoor antenna, connect the VHF or UHF antenna leads to screws of the VHF or UHF adapter. Plug the adapter into the antenna terminal on the TV.
