The exact arrangement you use to connect the VCR, camcorder, laserdisc player, DVD player, or HDTV Set Top Box to your TV set is
dependent on the model and f
eatures of each component. Check the owner’s manual of each component for the location of video and
audio inputs and outputs.
The following connection diagrams are offered as suggestions. However, you may need to modify them to accommodate your particu-
lar assortment of components and features. For best performance, video and audio cables should be made from coaxial shielded
wire.
Before Operating External Video Source
Connect an external source to the INPUT terminal, then press the INPUTS button to show the INPUTS menu. Use the CURSOR PAD
to select the Antenna and Input of your choice. Then press the SELECT button to confirm your choice (see page 25).
