2. How do I setup my TV?
Have you tried using your Quick Setup Guide to help you through this process? If
more help is needed, please follow the steps below.
Connecting Devices
o Do you need help selecting the best connection?
To get the best digital audio and picture, use an HDMI
connection.
Component is the 2nd best followed by S-Video and A/V
cables (RCA Cables, Composite Cables).
o What type of cable are you using?
HDMI Cable
– Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI jack on the back
or side of your TV and to the HDMI Out jack on the
HDMI device.
Component Video Cables are red, green and blue. The audio
cables are red and white.
– Connect a component video cable to the
COMPONENT jacks on the back of your TV and to the
COMPONENT Out jacks on the component device.
S-Video Cables are round with 4 pins in the middle. The audio
cables are red and white.
– Connect an S-Video cable to the S-VIDEO jack on the
back of your TV and to the S-Video Out jack on the S-
Video device.
– Connect an audio cable to the L AUDIO and R AUDIO
jacks on the back of your TV and to the Audio Out
jacks on the S-Video Device.
A/V Cables (RCA Cables, Composite Cables) have a yellow
video cable, and red and white audio cables.
– Connect A/V cables to the AV IN jacks on the back or
side of your TV and to the AV Out jacks on the A/V
device.
Setting Up Channels:
o Are you using a cable/satellite box, cable connected directly to the TV,
or an antenna?
If you are using a cable or satellite box you must use the
remote that came with that box to change channels.
– Make sure you have the correct input selected to view
channels via the cable or satellite box. For example, if
the cable or satellite box is connected via component
cables repeatedly press the COMP button on your
remote to select Component to view your channels.
If you are using cable connected directly to the TV:
1. Press MENU. The on-screen menu opens with the
Picture menu displayed.
2. Press ◄ or ► to highlight the CHANNELS. The
Channels menu opens.
3. Press ▼ to highlight Auto Channel Search, then
press OK/ENTER or ► to open the Auto Channel
Search screen.
4. Press ▼ to highlight Cable, then press OK/ENTER to
start the scan. You can see the search progress and
how many channels are found in the on-screen menu.
After the scan is complete, the menu closes and your
TV tunes to the first channel in the channel list.
