Connecting Cable TV
To connect to a cable TV system, follow the instructions below.
Cable without a Cable Box
1 Plug the incoming cable into the ANT 1 IN(CABLE) terminal on the side of the TV.
➢
Because this TV is cable-ready, you do not need a cable box to view unscrambled cable
channels.
Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles All Channels
1 Find the cable that is connected to the ANT OUT terminal on your cable box.
➢
This terminal might be labeled “ANT OUT”, “VHF OUT” or simply, “OUT”.
2 Connect the other end of this cable to the ANT 1 IN(CABLE) terminal on the side of the TV.
Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles Some Channels
If your cable box descrambles only some channels(such as premium channels), follow the instructions below. You will need a
two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four lengths of Antenna cable. (These items are available at most electronics stores.)
1 Find and disconnect the cable that is connected
to the ANT IN terminal on your cable box.
➢
This terminal might be labeled “ANT IN”, “VHF IN”
or simply, “IN”.
2 Connect this cable to a two-way splitter.
3 Connect an Antenna cable between an OUTPUT
terminal on the splitter and the IN terminal on the
cable box.
4 Connect an Antenna cable between the ANT OUT
terminal on the cable box and the B-IN terminal
on the RF (A/B) switch.
5 Connect another cable between the other OUT
terminal on the splitter and the A-IN terminal on
the RF (A/B) switch.
6 Connect the last Antenna cable between the OUT
terminal on the RF (A/B) switch and the ANT IN 1
(CABLE) terminal on the side of the TV.
After you have made this connection, set the
A/B switch to the “A” position for normal viewing.
Set the A/B switch to the “B” position to view
scrambled channels. (When you set the A/B
switch to “B”, you will need to tune your TV to
the cable box’s output channel, which is usually
channel 3 or 4.)
