Connecting Cable TV
To connect to a cable TV system, follow the instructions below.
Cable without a Cable Box
1. Plug the incoming cable into the ANTIN terminal on the back of the TV.
➢
Because this TV is cable-ready, you do not need a cable box to view unscrambled cable channels.
2. Connect the other end of this cable to the ANTIN terminal on the back of the TV.

Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles All Channels

1. Find the cable that is connected to the ANTOUT terminal on your cable box.

This terminal might be labeled “ANTOUT”, “VHF OUT” or simply, “OUT”.

ANT IN
After you have made this connection, set the A/B switch to the “A” position for normal viewing. Set the A/B switch to the “B” position to view scrambled
channels. (When you set the A/B switch to “B”, you will need to tune your TV to the cable box’s output channel, which is usually channel 3 or 4.)
2. Connect this cable to a two-way splitter.
