Cable TV

  1. If your Cable TV signal is a single, round cable (75 ohm), then you're ready to connect to the TV.
    Connect the TV cable to the ANTENNA/CABLE plug on the TV.

  2. If you have a cable converter box, connect the cable TV signal to the IN (put) plug on the converter, connect the OUT(put) plug from the converter to the 75 (ohm) plug on the TV.

  3. Verify that the On Screen Display (OSD) is set to Cable.
Note: The connecting cable for the converter is supplied by the Cable TV company.

 

Antenna

  1. If your antenna has a round cable (75 ohm) on the end, then you're ready to connect it to the TV.
    If your antenna has flat, twin-lead wire (300 ohm), you first need to attach the antenna wires to the screws on a 300 -to 75- ohm adapter.

  2. Push the round end of the adapter (or antenna) onto the 75 (ohm) plug on the back of the TV.
    If the round end of the antenna wire is threaded, screw it down finger tight.

  3. Verify that the On Screen Display (OSD) is set to Antenna.

Note: If your home has separate UHF and VHF antennas, you will need a combiner to connect to the TV.
