Connect the input sources to the TV according to the
type of connection:
Antenna or basic cable (TV cable or satellite)
without using a set-top box: see “Connecting the
cable TV or the air broadcast antenna” on
page 12.
Cable with a CableCARD (U.S. only): see “Using
a CableCARD” on page 13.
Cable or satellite with a separate set-top box: see
“Connecting cable or satellite with a set-top box”
on page 15.
Connecting the cable TV or the
air broadcast antenna
Use standard 75-ohm coaxial cable to connect a
ground antenna or cable TV input source to the TV. Use
shielded coaxial cable to reduce radio frequency (RF)
interference.
Optional equipment, cable TV service, splitters,
combiners, and all cables are sold separately.
1 Connect the input source coaxial cable to the
Analog Air In (A), Digital Air In (B), or Digital
Cable In (C) connectors on the back of the TV.
For broadcast signals, you can use a combiner
to add together your VHF antenna, UHF
antenna, and digital antenna. Then, use a splitter
(
E
) to connect the signal cable to both the Analog
Air In and Digital Air In connectors (
F
) on the TV.
For cable without a CATV converter, use a
combiner to add together your broadcast
antenna signals (see previous bullet) and the
cable signal. Then, use a splitter (
E
) to connect
the signal cable to both the Analog Air In and
Digital Air In connectors (
F
) on the TV.
For cable with a CATV converter, use a splitter
(
E
) to connect the signal cable to both the
Analog Air In and Digital Cable In connectors
(
H
) on the TV.
n
An F-type connector should be finger-
tightened only. When connecting the RF
cable to the TV set, do not use tools to
tighten the F-type connector, as it may
cause damage to your TV set.
