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; DVI can handle VGA, SVGA, XGA (only 50PF9966) and 480p, 576p, 720p (only 50PF9966), 1080i and 1152i.

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
