ANTENNA OR CABLE TV

ANT(ENNA) A & B INPUTS

Your TV has two sepa- rate ANT(enna)/Cable

inputs on the rear of the set. These two signal inputs offer convenient hook-up options for both normal TV program view- ing and Picture-In-Picture (PIP) features.

1 A typical ANT(enna)

A and B connection (using a

common signal source and an

optional Signal Splitter):

If your Antenna or Cable TV

signal has a round cable con-

nector (75 ohm) on the end,

then you're ready to connect it

to the 75ohm Signal Splitter.

If your antenna has flat twin-

lead wire (300 ohm), you first

need to attach the antenna wires

to the screws on a 300 to 75

2Connect your Antenna or Cable TV signal to the single 75 ohm input plug on the two- way Signal Splitter (optional).

Then connect two lengths of RF Coaxial Cable to the two Output plugs on the two-way Signal Splitter (F-type connector on both ends).

3Connect the twin Output plugs on the Signal Splitter to the ANT A and ANT B inputs on the rear of the TV. Push the round connector end of the RF Coaxial Cable onto the ANT(enna) plug and screw it down tight (if using threaded cables).

The ANT(enna) A input is

intended for use and view- ing on the TV’s main screen. Your home’s pri- mary Antenna, or Cable TV signal, should be con- nected to this input for normal TV setup, use and feature operation.

The ANT(enna) B input is

a second, or auxiliary sig- nal source, designed to supply your TV’s Picture- In-Picture (PIP) feature. For many homes the use of a single existing Antenna (or Cable TV) source, for both ANT A and B, will be

Note: Proper operation of your TV is not dependent upon connection of the ANT B input. Its main purpose is to provide an easily connected, dedicated picture source for PIP feature use. Other signal source options (such as a satellite dish sys- tem, additional external antenna, VCR, or Video Game) could also be connected and displayed on the TV screen through the use of the ANT B input.

Note: Although the ANT B input can be used and swapped

as the source for the TV’s Main picture, certain setup fea- tures (such as Smart Clock) are only based on a signal being detected at the ANT A input. To ensure that all features are operating properly, you may not want to rely solely on the ANT B input as your TV’s Main screen signal source.
