Connecting your TV

If you haven’t connected electronic equipment before, or you have been frustrated in the past, you may wish to read this section. (Cables are not supplied.)

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

 

 

according 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. S-video cables

 

 

can only be used with S-video compatible components.

Caution:

Component video cables come in sets of three and provide the best

 

picture performance. Component video cables can only be used

Do not plug the TV in until you have finished

 

with component video compatible components.

You will need:

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 VIDEO1 simultaneously.
