Cable Box Connections

The connection method differs, depending on the type of cable box you have. Your cable box may unscramble signals for all of your channels or it may unscramble only some of them.

If you’ll also be attaching a VCR to the TV, you need to use a different connection method so you can record TV programs. See “VCR and Cable Box Connection” on page 26.

Cable Box Unscrambles All Channels

If your cable box unscrambles signals for all of your channels, connect it as follows:

1Connect the cable coming into the house to the IN connector on the cable box.

2Connect one end of a coaxial cable to the OUT connector on the cable box.

3Connect the other end of the coaxial cable to the ANT 1 connector on the back of the TV.

If your coaxial cable has a screw-type connector on the end, secure it by turning the end clockwise.
