Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Connecting a DVD player with S-video and a VCR

You will need:

￿five coaxial cables￿one set of standard A/V cables

Note: If you have a mono VCR, connect L/MONO on the TV (VIDEO 1) to your VCR’s audio out jack using the white audio cable only.

From antenna or Cable TV

￿one S-video cable￿one pair of standard audio cables

Note:

If your DVD player does not have S-video, use a standard video cable instead. Do not connect an S-video cable and a standard video cable to VIDEO 1 (or VIDEO 2) at the same time or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

If your DVD player has component video, see page 16.

Do not connect the DVD player and VCR to the same set of A/V inputs on the TV. (See the illustration, which shows the VCR connected to VIDEO 1 on the TV, and the DVD player connected to VIDEO 2.)

￿To view basic channels and access the TV’s features:

Select the ANT 2 video input source.* Use the TV controls to change channels and access the TV’s features.

￿To view premium Cable channels:

Turn OFF the VCR. Select the ANT 1 video input source.* Tune the TV to channel 3 or 4 (whichever channel is vacant in your area). Use the Cable box controls to change channels.

Connect the G-LINK cable to the G-LINK jack (see page 25)
