Connecting Cable TV and VCR
You can connect different cable systems to your TV, including cable without a cable box, and
cable with a cable box that descrambles some or all channels.
Cable without a Cable Box
If you want to connect cable, and you do not need to use a cable box:
1
Plug the incoming cable
into the “ANT 1 IN”
terminal on the rear panel.
Cable with a Cable Box that Descrambles All Channels
1
Find the cable that is
connected to the
ANTENNA 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” terminal on the rear
panel.
Connecting a Cable Converter Box
This connection allows you to watch cable and premium channels. You should keep your TV
selected to “ANT 1 IN” so that you can use the TV features. When viewing premium channels,
select “ANT 2 IN” and tune the TV to channel 3 or 4 (whichever channel is vacant in your area),
then use the converter box to change channels. You will need two coaxial cables.
NOTES
When you use a converter box with
your TV, there may be features that you
can not program using the remote
control, such as programming your
favorite channels and blocking
channels.
The output from “ANT 1 OUT” is
available when select “Ant.2” in the
“Antenna“ channel menu.
Connecting a Cable Converter Box and a VCR
This connection allows you to watch and record basic and premium cable channels, as well as
watch videotapes. You should keep your TV selected to “ANT 1 IN” so that you can use the TV’s
features. When viewing premium channels or recording with the VCR, select “ANT 2 IN”
(whichever channel is vacant in your area), then use the converter box to change channels.
Caution: If you want to record one channel
while watching another channel, a splitter
(not included) must be added between the
cable and “ANT 1 IN”. One output of the
splitter goes to “ANT 1 OUT” and the
second output is connected to IN on the
cable converter box.
If you have a mono VCR, connect L/Mono
to VCR Audio OUT using only one audio
cable.
If you have a S-VHS VCR, use the S-video
connections and remove the video cable.
Do not connect the video cable and the
S-video cable to video1 simultaneously.
When you use a converter box with your
TV there may be features that you can not
program using the remote control, such as
programming your favorite channels and
blocking channels.
