When connecting any external equipment, do not connect any AC power cords to wall outlets until all other connections are completed. Connecting a TV Cable or an Antenna Antenna Connection The antenna requirements for good color TV reception are more important than those for a black & white TV reception. For this reason, a good quality outdoor antenna is strongly recommended. The following is a brief explanation of the type of connection that is provided with the various antenna systems. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable (not included) with Ftype connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without tools. F-type connector 75-ohm coaxial cable (round) A 300-ohm system is a flat twin-lead cable (not included) that can be attached to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300-75-ohm adapter (not included). 17 Chapter 2 Installing the LCD TV Use one of the following two diagrams when connecting an outdoor antenna. A: Shows how to use a VHF/UHF combination outdoor antenna. B: Shows how to use a separate VHF and/or UHF outdoor antenna. A. Combination VHF/UHF antenna VHF/UHF Antenna 300/75-ohm adapter (not included) VHF/UHF Antenna 300-ohm twinlead cable 75-ohm coaxial cable B. Separate VHF and/or UHF antennas UHF Antenna Combiner 300-ohm twin(not included) lead cable OUT I N 75-ohm coaxial cable 300-ohm twinlead cable VHF Antenna 18 Chapter 2 Installing the LCD TV Cable TV (CATV) Connection This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the National Electrical Code (NEC) that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building accurately, or as close to the point of cable entry as possible. Use of this TV for other than private viewing of programs broadcasted on UHF, VHF or transmitted by cable companies for the use of the general public may require authorization from the broadcast/cable company, and/ or program owner. A 75-ohm coaxial cable connector is built into the set for easy hookup. When connecting the 75-ohm coaxial cable to the set, connect the 75ohm cable into the ANT. terminal. Some cable TV companies offer premium pay channels. Since the signals of these premium pay channels are scrambled, a cable TV converter/descrambler is generally provided to the subscriber by the cable TV company. This converter/descrambler is necessary for normal viewing of scrambled channels. (Set your TV to channel 3 or 4, typically one of these channels is used. If this is unknown, consult your cable TV company.) For more specific instructions on installing cable TV, consult your cable TV company. One possible method of connecting the converter/descrambler provided by your cable TV company is shown in the diagram below. ENGLISH RF switch (not included) A IN B OUT 2 set signal splitter (not included) Cable TV Line VHF/UHF IN Cable TV converter/ descrambler (not included) The RF switch (not included) is required to provide two inputs (A and B). Setting the RF switch to position A allows viewing of all unscrambled channels by using the TV channel keys. Setting the RF switch to position B allows viewing of all scrambled channels via the converter/descrambler by using the converter channel keys. 19 Chapter 2 Installing the LCD TV Use a supplied antenna cable to connect the TV signal to the LCD TV's TV CABLE terminal. HDTV/TV Air/CABLE VHF/UHF IN Connect the AC power cord at the back of the TV and connect the power cord to wall outlet. HDTV/TV Air/CABLE VHF/UHF IN This TV is equipped with a safety fuse.
