Connecting a DTV Receiver
DTV Connectors and Adaptors
(Figure 11)
The TV back panel has 5 RCA-type connectors for
the DTV connection. The back panel of your DTV
receiver may use RCA-type connectors or BNC-type
connectors. If your DTV receiver comes with BNC type
connections, you will need to purchase BNC to RCA
adaptors to connect the TV to the DTV receiver. These
adaptors should be available at most electronic supply
stores.

Connections (Recommended)
(Figure 12)
1. Connect the outside antenna cable, or satellite to
ANT or SATELLITE IN on the DTV receiver (see your
DTV receiver owner’s guide for instructions and
cable compatibility).
2. If your DTV receiver has a built-in integrated digital
tuner, connect the incoming integrated antenna to
ANT on the DTV receiver. If your DTV receiver does
not have a built-in terrestrial tuner, this TV will only
be able to provide an analog signal through Ant-A
or Ant-B on the TV back panel.
3. Connect the RCA-type cables from the DTV
receiver outputs to DTV INPUT Y/Pb/Pr on the TV
back panel. You may need to access the Input
Assignment menu (page 33) to set the DTV Input to
Y/Pb/Pr.
