Jacks on the Back of the TV
This section describes each of the jacks on the back of the TV. When connecting A/V cables, be sure to connect corresponding outputs to inputs (video
to video, right audio to right audio, etc.)
G-LINK Connect the end of the G-LINK cable (provided) to this jack. The G-LINK cable enables the TV’s Guide Plus+ system to interact with the cable
box and/or the VCR. A picture of the G-LINK cable is on page 2.
CABLE/ANTENNA Lets you connect a coaxial cable to receive the signal from the antenna, cable or cable box.
INPUT1 Lets you connect a component such as a VCR, DVD player, satellite receiver or laserdisc player.
VIDEO provides composite video connection. The video connector is usually yellow.
R AUDIO provides right audio connection. The right audio connector is usually red.
L AUDIO provides left audio connection. The left audio connector is usually white.
S-VIDEO provides better picture quality than the regular video jacks (INPUT1 and INPUT 2 VIDEO) because
the color part of the signal is separated from the black and white part of the picture. When using S-
Video, make sure to connect left and right audio cables to the R-AUDIO-L INPUT1 jacks.
INPUT2 Lets you connect a second component such as a VCR, internet access device, DVD player, or
laserdisc player. Its AUDIO and VIDEO jacks are the same as described for INPUT1 above.
