ANTENNA/CABLE INPUT  Connect either antenna or cable via coaxial (RF) cable to receive analog and digital channels through your cable provider. Receive off-air analog and digital channels via an antenna. Refer to page 5 for more details.

COMPOSITE INPUT  Connect devices that have Audio/Video (composite) outputs such as VCRs, DVD players, satellite receivers, cable boxes, camcorders and video game consoles. Use audio cables to connect the left and right audio jacks for sound.

•VIDEO  Provides composite video connection. The video connector is usually yellow.

•AUDIO-L  Provides left audio connection. The left audio connector is usually white.

•AUDIO-R  Provides right audio connection. The right audio connector is usually red.

To access the device when using these jacks, use the INPUT button on your remote until VID appears.

COMPONENT INPUT  Connect devices that have component (Y Pb Pr) outputs such as VCRs, DVD players, DVD-PVRs, DVD recorders, satellite receivers and cable boxes. This connection provides optimum picture quality because the video is separated into three signals. The AUDIO L and R jacks are shared with the COMPOSITE INPUT connection for sound.

To access the device when using these jacks, press the INPUT button on your remote until CVID appears.

Refer to page 7 for a detailed explanation of how to connect Y Pb Pr cables to your TV.

•AUDIO-L  Provides left audio connection. The left audio connector is usually white.

•AUDIO-R  Provides right audio connection. The right audio connector is usually red.

Remember: You can use the Component connection or the Composite connection but not both at the same time. They share the same AUDIO R/L input jacks.

AUDIO/VIDEO OUTPUT (Models 24F524T, 27F524T, 27F534T, 32V434T and 32V524T only)  Connect your TV to external devices with inputs, such as VCRs, digital recorders or secondary monitors. Audio/video cables are used for this connection.
