Connecting an External Digital TV (DTV or HDTV) Receiver
DTV Connectors and Adaptors
(Figure 1)
The TV back panel has 5 RCA-type connectors for
the Input-DTV. The back panel of your external
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.

or cable (not satellite) to ANT-A on the TV
back panel (a coaxial splitter, available at most
electronic supply stores, may be required to
complete this installation).
3. Connect RCA-type cables from the YPrPb
outputs on the DTV receiver to Input-DTV
on the TV back panel, matching the correct
connections: (Y to Y) (Pr to Pr) (Pb to Pb).
