Accessory Information

Antenna (or cable-TV) connections are made with either coaxial antenna cable or twin-lead cable. Coaxial cables are shielded so they are less susceptible to hum or interference from adjacent cables.

Most audio/video connections between components can be made with shielded audio and video cables that have RCA-type phono connectors.

Audio/Video Cables

Standard Audio/Video cable with RCA-type phono plugs (such as No. VH83)

Color-Coded Jacks

The jacks on the TV’s monitor panel are color-coded for ease of use. The video jacks are yellow, the right audio jacks are red, and the left audio jacks are white. When connecting components to each other, be sure that you always connect left outputs to left inputs and right outputs to right inputs. If a component has only one output (mono), connect it to the r/mono input jack.

To connect S-VHS (Super-VHS) components, an S-VHS video cable is required.
