Connecting the
TV
to a home antenna terminal
CAUTION!
- When connecting, ensure that the TV is switched off.
The antenna requirements for good color television reception are more important than those for black &
white television reception. For this reason, a good quality outdoor antenna is strongly recommended.
The following is a brief explanation of the type of connections that are provided with the various antenna
systems. (See page E10 for information on removing/replacing the terminal cover.)
1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type
connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without
tools (commercially available).
2. A 300-ohm system is a flat "twin-lead" cable that can be
attached to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300-75-ohm adapter
(commercially available).
F-type connector
75-ohm coaxial cable (round)
300-ohm twin-lead cable (flat)
Notes:
- The 75-ohm coaxial cable is recommended.
-
When you first receive this TV, it has no memory of any channels. To receive channels, perform the EZ Setup
(see page E20) after the first power-on, or use "CH Setup" in the Setup menu (see pages E32 and E33).
Outdoor antenna connection
- Use one of the following two diagrams if you connect an outdoor antenna.
A: Using a VHF/UHF combination outdoor antenna.
B: Using separate VHF and/or UHF outdoor antennas.
- Connect the outdoor antenna cable lead-in to the antenna input terminal (ANT-IN) on the right side of
the TV.
CAUTION!
- When connecting the coaxial cable to the TV, do not
tighten F-type connector with tools. If tools are
used, it may cause damage to your TV. (The
breaking of internal circuit, etc.)
