Philips 42PF9986 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

and 480p, 576p,720p, 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.

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.
