Connecting cable TV

Your TV has a coaxial jack for connecting cable TV.

Some cable TV providers scramble the signals for “premium” (pay) channels. To view these channels, you need a converter/descrambler box.

If you do not require a converter/descrambler box, you can connect your cable TV directly to your TV. For more information, see “No converter/descrambler box” on page 14.

If you require a converter/descrambler box, you can connect your cable TV using an RF switch (not included). For more information about connecting a converter/descrambler box, see “With converter/descrambler box” on page 14 and contact your cable TV provider.

You can also connect cable TV using an HDMI, component video, S-Video, or AV connection, depending on your cable box.

No converter/descrambler box

To connect cable TV without a converter/descrambler box:

1Connect one end of a coaxial cable to the ANT./CABLE IN jack on the back of your TV.

2Connect the other end of the cable to the cable TV wall outlet.

With converter/descrambler box

If your cable box descrambles only some channels (such as premium channels), you need a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four lengths of antenna cable. The two-way splitter and RF switch are not provided.

To connect cable TV with a converter/descrambler box:

•Use the following illustration as a guide to connect a converter/descrambler box.

Set the RF switch to the A position to tune to unscrambled channels using your TV remote control. Set the RF switch to the B position to watch scrambled channels using the converter/descrambler controls.
