PREPARATION
No supplied cables are used in this connection:
Please purchase the necessary cables at your local store.
High Speed HDMI cable (also known as HDMI category 2 cable) is recommended for the better compatibility.
Before you connect...
Be sure your antenna or other device is connected properly before plugging in the AC power cord.
Antenna Connection
Connect the RF coaxial cable on your home outlet to the antenna input jack of this unit.
e.g.)
VHF / UHF antenna
rear of this unit
RF coaxial cable
or

*Once connections are completed, turn on the unit and begin initial setup. Channel scanning is necessary for the unit to memorize all available channels in your area. Refer to “Initial Setup” on page 17.
Note:
•If you have any question about the DTV’s antenna, visit www.antennaweb.org for further information.
•Depending on your antenna system, you may need different types of combiners (mixers) or separators (splitters). Contact your local electronics store for these items.
•For your safety and to avoid damage to this unit, please unplug the RF coaxial cable from the antenna input jack before moving the unit.
•If you use an antenna to receive analog TV, it should also work for DTV reception. Outdoor or attic antennas will be more effective than settop versions.
•To switch your reception source easily between antenna and cable, install an antenna selector.
•If you are not receiving a signal from your cable service, contact the Cable provider.
