Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
About the connection illustrations
You can connect different types and brands of devices to your TV in several different configurations. The connection illustrations in
this manual are representative of typical device connections only. The input/output jacks on your devices may differ from those
illustrated herein. For details on connecting and using your specific devices, refer to each device’s owner’s manual.
Connecting a digital CableCARD™
This digital television is capable of receiving analog basic, digital
basic, and digital premium cable television programming by
direct connection to a cable system that provides such
programming.
A security card (such as a digital CableCARD
™
), provided by
your cable operator, is required to view encrypted digital
programming.
Certain advanced and interactive digital cable services (such as
video-on-demand, a cable operator’s enhanced program guide,
and data-enhanced television services) will not work with the
use of a CableCARD and may require the use of a separate
set-top box from your cable operator.
For more information, call your local cable operator.
You will need:
one digital CableCARD (contact your cable operator)
digital cable subscription service (contact your cable
operator)
To view encrypted digital channels:
1. Connect your digital Cable TV cable to ANT-1.
2. With the front of the CableCARD
™
facing right, insert it
into the CableCARD slot on the back of the TV (see
illustration below left).
3. After the CableCARD is inserted, a CableCARD option
appears in the APPLICATIONS menu, with informational
screens provided by your digital CableCARD service. See
page 50 for additional information.

CableCard Connected -- Acquiring
channel information.
CableCard services will only operate
with cable signal connected to Antenna 1.
NOTE:
• Never remove the CableCARD carelessly. Be sure to use
the EJECT button when removing the CableCARD.
• Never insert any object or card (including, without
limitation, a PCMCIA card) other than a CableCARD
into the CableCARD slot.
• Always make sure the CableCARD is facing the correct
direction.
• Connect the cable for your digital cable TV service to
ANT-1 only.
•A digital cable subscription is required to use a
CableCARD. Contact your Cable company for
information.
• If the TV locks up with the CableCARD inserted, press
the RESET button on the TV front or unplug the TV, plug
it in again, and press POWER.
•When using a CableCARD, channel programming
(page 41) is unnecessary because the CableCARD
automatically loads the cable channel list into the TV’s
channel memory.
•The CableCARD will take several seconds to “pair” with
the TV. CableCARD information and channel listings will
not be available until this “pairing” process is completed.
