Watching Cable TV programs that don’t
require the cable box
Since you’ve connected the cable TV signal
directly to the TV’s tuner, you can also watch the
unscrambled programs by simply tuning to the
desired channel.You must first use Autoprogram,
however, to store channels in the TV’s memory.
See page 10.
Note:This connection will supply stereo sound to the
TV if it is being broadcast by the station you are
watching.

& Basic connections to the TV
Your integrated digital TV automatically decodes and displays the four basic
DTV picture resolution standards.
- SDTV (Standard Definition TV) are broadcast as 480i (480-line interlaced)
or 480p (480-line progressive scan) video.
- HDTV (High-Definition TV) are broadcast either in the 1080i or 720p
formats, always with a widescreen picture.
Note: Progressive scan video (p) is more like that you see in a movie theater.
Images are much more distinct and free of flicker, and motion is smoother.
Next to analog NTSC broadcast reception, your TV has an integrated High
Definition TV tuner which receives, decodes and displays terrestrial ATSC
and unscrambled cable (QAM) signals.
HDTV quality is only reproduced when a broadcaster or cable provider
broadcasts HDTV signals.
Note: Ask your broadcaster or cable box provider to transmit/enable HD content
to your home, and possibly upgrade to a CableCard for the decription of HD
signals.
There are 2 ways to get HDTV content:
- via cable,
- via antenna.
Note:This drawing is used wherever you can connect cable or antenna.
- Cable TV
Connect the cable TV signal to the
CABLE/ANTENNA 75 Ω x jack at
the bottom of the TV. See page 10 for details on using Autoprogram to
store channels in the TV’s memory.
Note: this connection will supply stereo sound to the TV if it is being broadcast by
the station you are watching.
- Cable box with
RF IN/OUT
• Connect the incoming cable TV signal to the cable IN jack 1 on the
back of the cable box.
• Connect a coaxial cable (not supplied) from the
TO TV jack on the
back of the cable box to the
CABLE/ANTENNA 75 Ω x jack 2 at
the bottom of the TV.
Note:Your cable box may have a different label for the
TO TV jack, such as
OUTPUT or OUT.
• Set the
OUTPUT CH switch 3 of the cable box to CH 3 or 4
(whichever is correct for your cable box), then tune the TV to the
corresponding channel.
Once tuned, change channels at the cable box, not the TV.
Note:This connection will not supply stereo sound to the TV. The reason is that
the RF output on a cable box - labeled
TO TV, OUT or OUTPUT for example -
will not send a stereo signal to the tuner (VHF/UHF) input on a TV.
- Cable box with A/V outputs
• Connect the incoming cable TV signal 1 to a signal splitter (not
supplied).The signal splitter enables you to avoid having to use the TO
TV jack on the back of the cable box.This jack will not supply stereo
sound to the TV.
Note:Your cable box may have a different label for the
TO TV jack, such as
OUTPUT or OUT.
• Connect a coaxial cable (not supplied) to a connector on the signal
splitter and to the
CABLE/ANTENNA 75 Ω x jack 2 on the TV.
• Connect another coaxial cable (not supplied) to a connector on the
signal splitter and to the cable
IN jack 3 on the back of the cable
box.
• Connect A/V cables (not supplied) to the
VIDEO and AUDIO L and R
outputs on the back of the cable box and to the AV2 video (labeled
VIDEO) and AUDIO (labeled L and R) jacks 4 on the back of the TV.
•To view programs from your cable box, first press the
AV+ button on
the remote control.
•Press the cursor down or up buttons until the
AV2 signal source is
selected.
•Press the
OK button to confirm your selection.The AV2 input source
becomes current for the viewing of cable TV programs through your
cable box.
Note: If your cable box Audio/Video outputs will not supply video and stereo
audio to the TV, you will need to make the connection shown above in the
example “Cable box with
RF IN/OUT”.
