Premium/Movie Channels
scrambled), follow the
steps to the right for an
alternative ANT Aand
ANT B PIPfeature
hookup. Note the Cable TV
signal will be split before
connection to the
Converter box (an option-
al two-way 75 ohm Signal
Splitter will be required).

Connect your Cable
TV signal to the single 75 ohm
INPUT plug on a two-way
Signal Splitter (optional).
Connect one end of RF

Your TV has two sepa-
rate ANT(enna)/Cable
inputs on the rear of the
set. These two signal
inputs offer convenient
hook-up options for both
normal TV program view-
ing and Picture-In-Picture
(PIP) features.
The ANT(enna) Ainput is
intended for use and view-
ing on the TV’s main
screen. Your home’s pri-
mary Antenna, or Cable
TV signal, should be con-
nected to this input for
normal TV setup, use and
feature operation.
The ANT(enna) B input is
a second, or auxiliary sig-
nal source, designed to
supply your TV’s Picture-
In-Picture (PIP) feature.
For many homes the use of
a single existing Antenna
(or Cable TV) source, for
both ANTA and B, will be
the preferred method of
connection. This type of
connection (optional
Signal Splitter required)
will work properly for the
TV’s Main on-screen fea-
tures, as well as retain all
the features designed for
PIP. For more details refer
to the Picture-In-Picture
section in your other
owner’s manual.

Your TVcan set
itself to select only
the channel numbers
on your Cable sys-

Atypical ANT(enna)
Aand B connection (using a
common signal source and an
optional Signal Splitter):
If yourAntenna or Cable TV
signal has a round cable con-
nector (75 ohm) on the end,
then you're ready to connect it
to the 75ohm Signal Splitter.
If your antenna has flat twin-
lead wire (300 ohm), you first
need to attach the antenna wires
to the screws on a 300 to 75
ohm adapter before connecting
to the 75ohm Signal Splitter.
Connect yourAntenna or
Cable TV signal to the single
75 ohm input plug on the two-
way Signal Splitter (optional).
Then connect two lengths of RF
Coaxial Cable to the two Output
plugs on the two-way Signal
Splitter (F-type connector on
both ends).

Note: Properoperation of your TVis not dependent upon
connection of the ANTB input. Its main purpose is to provide
an easily connected, dedicated picture source for PIPfeature
use. Other signal source options (such as a satellite dish sys-
tem, additional external antenna, VCR, or Video Game) could
also be connected and displayed on the TVscreen through the
use of the ANTB input.
Note: Although the ANTB input can be used and swapped
as the source forthe TV’s Main picture, certain setup fea-
tures (such as Smart Clock) are only based on a signal being
detected at the ANTA input. To ensure that all features are
operating properly, you may not want to rely solely on the ANT
B input as your TV’s Main screen signal source.
Connect the twin Output
plugs on the Signal Splitter to
the ANTA and ANTB inputs
on the rear of the TV. Push the
round connector end of the RF
Coaxial Cable onto the
ANT(enna) plug and screw it
down tight (if using threaded
cables).
