Connecting a DTV Receiver
DTV Connectors and Adaptors
(Figure 11)
The TV back panel has five 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.
DTV Receiver with Component
Video 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 terrestrial tuner,
connect the incoming terrestrial 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 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 set the DTV
Input Assignment to Y/Pb/Pr (see page 35).
4.
Connect the L (left) and R (right) audio cables
from the DTV receiver to DTV AUDIO on the
TV back panel.
5. To utilize the benefits of a digital A/V receiver,
connect your DTV receiver’s digital audio out
to a digital input on your digital A/V receiver.
Component (1 and 2) may also be used for 1080i
components.
See Appendix B, page 65 for component video
signal compatibility information.
For digital audio connections, see your DTV
receiver and A/V receiver Owner’s Guides.
