Connecting your TV

A coaxial cable is the standard cable that comes in from your antenna or cable converter box. Coaxial cables use “F” connectors.

Standard A/V (audio/video) cables are usually color coded accord- ing to use: yellow for video and red and white for audio. The red audio cable is for the stereo right channel, and the white audio cable is for the stereo left (or mono) channel. If you look at the rear panel of the TV, you will see that the terminals are color coded in the same manner as the cables.

S-video cables provide better picture performance than standard video cables. S-video cables can only be used with S-video compatible components.

Component video cables provide better picture performance than S-video cables. Component video cables can only be used with component video compatible components.

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) cable is for use with video equipment that has HDMI output (see page 14.)

two coaxial cables

one set of standard A/V cables

Note:

If using a mono VCR, connect L/Mono to VCR Audio OUT using only one audio cable. For better picture quality, if your VCR has S- video, you can use an S-video cable instead of the standard video cable. Do not connect a standard video cable and an S-video cable to VIDEO-1 (or VIDEO-2) simultaneously.
