your TV
Note:
If you have a mono VCR, connect L/Mono to
VCR Audio OUT using only one audio cable.
If you have a VCR with S-video, use an
S-video cable instead of a standard video
cable.
Do not connect a standard video cable and an
S-video cable to Video-1 (or Video-2) at the
same time or the picture performance will be
unacceptable.
Connecting a VCR
This connection allows you to watch local channels and video pro-
grams, play or record on the VCR while watching TV, and record
from one channel while watching another channel.
You will need:
• two coaxial cables

Connecting your TV
Note: Cables are not supplied with your TV.
Coaxial cable is the cable that comes in from your antenna, cable TV service,
or cable converter box. Coaxial cable uses “F” connectors.
Standard A/V (audio/video) cables usually come in sets of three, and are
typically color-coded according to use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio,
and white for stereo left (or mono) audio. On your TV’s back panel, the standard
A/V inputs are color-coded in the same manner as the cables.
S-Video cable is for use with video equipment with an S-Video connection.
Component video cables come in sets of three, and are for use with video
equipment with component video connections. (ColorStream
®
is Toshiba’s brand
of component video.)
NOTE REGARDING PICTURE QUALITY
When connecting video equipment to your Toshiba TV:
For GOOD picture quality: Use a standard yellow video cable.
For BETTER picture quality: If your equipment has S-video, use an S-video
cable instead of a standard yellow video cable. (You still must connect the
standard red and white audio cables for full system connection, but do not
connect the standard yellow video cable at the same time, or the picture
performance will be unacceptable.)
For BEST picture quality: If your equipment has component video, use
component video cables instead of a standard video or S-video cable. (You
still must connect the standard red and white audio cables for full system
connection.)
