PREPARATION

No supplied cables are used with these connections:

- Please purchase the necessary cables at your local store.

Before you connect:

3e sure your antenna or other device is connected properly before plugging in the AC power cord

Antenna Connection

Connect the RF coaxial cable on your home outlet to the antenna input jack of this unit

32" VHF/UHF analog or TWantenna or RFcoaxial cable cable TW signal

26" RF coaxial cable VHF/UHF analog DTW antenna or 19" RF coaxial cable cable TV signal

Once connections are completed, turn on the unit and begin initial setup. Channel scanning is necessary for the unit to memorize all available channels in your area. [Initial Setup] p.13

Note

  • If you have any question about the DTV's antenna, visit www.antennaweb.org for further information.
  • Depending on your antenna system, you may need different types of combiners (mixers) or separators (splitters) for HD TV signal the minimum RF band pass on these devices is 2,000MHz or 2GHz.
  • For your safety and to avoid damage to this unit, please unplug the RF coaxial cable from the antenna input jack before moving the unit
  • If you did use an antenna to receive analog TV, it should also work for DTV reception. Outdoor or attic antennas will be more effective than a set top or inside antenna
  • To switch your reception source easily between antenna and cable install an antenna selector:
  • If you are not receiving a signal from your cable service, contact the Cable provider.

Connection to Cable Receiver or Satellite Box

Use an HDMI or Component Video cables to connect the HDMI or the Component Video Input jacks of the unit to the HDMI or the Component Video output jacks of the cable receiver/satellite box

If you connect to the unit's Component Video Input jacks connect AnalogAudio cables to the Analog Audio L/R Input jacks for the Component Video connector jacks
