Basic connections

Connecting the antenna

To enjoy a clearer picture, use an outdoor antenna. The following is a brief explanation of the types of connections that are used for a coaxial cable.

Antenna cable (commercially available)

If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial cable with a standard DIN45325 plug (IEC169-2), plug it into the antenna terminal at the rear of the plasma television.

Note

If the antenna is not connected correctly, the quality of reception may be impaired. If images are not displaying correctly, check whether the antenna connection is correct or not.

To view both analogue and digital broadcasts with a single connecting cable, use the provided “loop” antenna cable. For optimum picture quality, connect an antenna cable directly to a single (either digital or analogue) antenna terminal.

Routing cables

Use the speed clamps as necessary to route the connecting cables. The diagrams below show the location of the holes on the rear of the display.

For viewing both analogue and digital broadcasts, connect the antenna cable to the ANT OUT terminal (antenna through out) and ANT (analogue input) terminal.

Be sure to use the provided antenna cable.

For viewing analogue broadcasts only, connect the 75-ohm coaxial cable (commercially available) to ANT (analogue input) terminal.

Attaching and removing speed clamps

Insert [1] into an appropriate hole on the rear of the plasma television and snap [2] into the back of [1] to lock the clamp.

Speed clamps are designed to be difficult to undo once in place. Please attach them carefully.

Use pliers to twist the clamp 90º, pulling outward. The clamp may deteriorate over time and become damaged if removed.

Be careful not to subject any connecting cables to strain.

Note

• Use the speed clamps as necessary.
