There are three types of connections outlined in this section:
IV Only:
If you're only going to connect the
TV to your home antenna or cable
system.
The Basic Connection:
If you're going to connect the TV to a
VCR or satellite receiver.
Advanced Connections:
If you're going to make multiple
connections, hooking up the TV to
one or two VCRs, DVD player, and a
satellite receiver.
Cable information and illustrations are given for each type of
connection. Once you have completed your desired connection you
may skip forward to Step 3.
ONLY
This is a basic connection from an antenna or cable system to your TV.
Connect the cable into the Cable/Antenna jack as shown.
CABLES
You will use the following cable to make your connection:
