Connect Peripheral Equipment

There is a wide range of audio and video equipment that can be connected to your TV. The following connection diagrams show you how to connect them.

Note: EXT1 can handle CVBS and RGB; EXT2 CVBS, Y/C and RGB; EXT3 CVBS; HDMI can handle VGA (640x480 via a DVI or HDMI connector) and 480p, 576p, 480i and 576i.

It is preferable to connect peripherals with RGB output to EXT1 or EXT2 as RGB provides a better picture quality.

Note: If your recorder is provided with the EasyLink function, it should be connected to EXT2 to benefit from the EasyLink functionality.

Recorder (VCR-DVD+RW)

Note: Do not place your recorder too close to the screen as some recorders may be susceptible to signals from the display. Keep a minimum distance of 0,5 m from the screen.

CABLE

Connect the aerial cables 1, 2 and, to obtain the optimum picture quality, eurocable 3 as shown.

If your recorder does not have a euroconnector, the only possible connection is via the aerial cable.You will

RECORDER

&Connect the aerial cables 1, 2 and 3 as shown (only if your peripheral has TV aerial in-/output). Connect your equipment with a eurocable 4 or 5 to one of the euroconnectors EXT1, 2 or 3 to obtain a better picture quality.

éLook for the test signal of your peripheral in the same way as you do for a recorder.

When a recorder is connected to EXT. 1 you can only record a programme from your TV. Only when a recorder is connected to EXT. 2 it is possible to record a programme from your TV as well as from other connected equipment.
