AUDIO

FOR SATELLITE RECEIVER

Connect Peripheral Equipment

There is a wide range of audio and video equipment that can be connected to your TV.

The following connection diagrams show you where the different equipment should be connected at the back side of the TV.

Via the Euroconnector

Your TV set has a Euroconnector socket. If you want to connect peripherals (e.g. video, decoder, etc.) which have Euroconnectors, to your TV, use SCART 1 input.

If an external device is connected via Euroconnector sockets TV is switched to AV mode automatically. If the signal is RGB then the RGB OSD indicator is displayed on the screen.

In AV mode if you press the “1” button the TV status OSD is displayed on the screen.

Via Aerial Input

If the equipment you want to connect to your TV e.g. video recorder or satellite receiver does not have a SCART socket, you should connect it to the aerial (ANT) socket on your TV.

Decoder

Cable TV offers you a wide choice of programs. Most of them are free, others are to be paid for by the viewer. This means that you will need to subscribe to the broadcasting organization whose programmes you wish to receive. This organization will supply you with a corresponding decoder unit to allow the programmes to be unscrambled.

For further information ask your dealer. See also the booklet supplied with your decoder.

Connecting a decoder with an aerial socket to the TV

• Connect the aerial cable.

Connecting a decoder without an aerial socket to the TV

• Connect the decoder to your TV with a SCART lead to SCART 1. When your decoder has a SCART connector you can obtain better picture quality if you connect a SCART lead to EXTERNAL.
• Then select the appropriate AV mode by pressing the “AV” button.

TV and Video Recorder

• If your video recorder has a SCART socket please connect it to the TV using a SCART lead. Your TV should also be connected to your video recorder using the aerial RF output socket.

Please note using a SCART lead will produce better quality pictures.

Search for and store the test signal of the video recorder

• Unplug the aerial cable from the aerial socket "ANT" of your video recorder.
• Switch on your TV and put the video recorder on the test signal. (See the handbook for your video recorder.)
• Enter the Tuning menu via the Install menu.
• Search for the test signal of your video recorder in the same way as you searched for and stored the TV signals. See Tuning, Search and Store TV channels. Store the test signal under programme number 0.
• Replace the aerial cable in the aerial socket "ANT" of your video recorder once you have stored the test signal.

Camera and Camcorder

To connect to Front-AV input

Connect your camcorder to the front of your TV.

• Connect your equipment to the TV viaVIDEO (yellow), AUDIO R (red) and AUDIO L (white) inputs. You should connect the jacks to the input of the same colour.

Connect the decoder to the video recorder

Some video recorders have a special SCART connector for decoder.

• Connect a SCART lead to the SCART connector of your decoder and to the special SCART connector of your video recorder. See also the handbook of your video recorder.
• To connect your video recorder to the TV, see TV and Video Recorder section.

If you want to connect more equipment to your TV, consult your dealer.

Tips

Care of the Screen

Clean the screen with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive solvents as they may damage the TV screen coating layer

Poor Picture

Have you selected the correct TV system? Is your TV set or house aerial located too close to the loudspeakers, nonearthed audio equipment or neon lights, etc. ?

Mountains or high buildings can cause double pictures or ghost images. Sometimes you can improve the picture quality by changing the direction of the aerial.

Is the picture or Teletext unrecognisable? Check if you have entered the correct frequency.

The picture quality may degrade when two peripherals are connected to the TV at the same time. In such a case, disconnect one of the peripherals.

No Picture

Is the aerial connected properly? Are the plugs connected tightly to the aerial socket? Is the aerial cable damaged? Are suitable plugs used to connect the aerial? If you are in doubt, consult your dealer.

No Picture means that your TV is not receiving any transmission. Have you pressed the correct keys on the remote control? Try once more.

Sound

You can not hear any sound. Did you perhaps interrupt the sound, pressing "OK" key?

Sound is coming from only one of the speakers. Is the balance set to one direction extreme? See SOUND menu.

Remote Control

Your TV no longer responds to the remote control. Press the "TV" button on the remote control once more. Perhaps the batteries are exhausted. If so you can still use the local keys at the front of your TV.

Have you selected the wrong menu? Press "TV" key to return to TV mode or press "M" to return to the previous menu.

No solution

Switch your TV set off and on. If this does not work, call the service personnel; never attempt to repair it yourself.
