Connecting the TV
Overview
Your new LCD TV can receive both analog and digital (HD and SD)
broadcasting signals from antenna, satellite and cable TV company.
To display clear crisp pictures, you must connect your TV correctly and
choose the correct display format (see “Using the WIDE Button” on page
50). It is strongly recommended to connect the cable and antenna inputs
using a 75-ohm coaxial cable to receive optimum picture quality signal. A
300-ohm twin lead cable can be easily affected by radio noise and the like,
resulting in signal deterioration. If you use a 300-ohm twin lead cable, keep
it as far away as possible from the TV.
Making Video and
Audio Connections
The signals that enter your TV and connected devices will need to output in
the correct format using the suitable connections. Below are different types
of video connectors available these days. Your TV comes with all types of
connectors with the exception of the DVI connector but your cable box or
satellite receiver may be equipped with this type. When connecting your TV,
use the inputs that are available on your devices that provide the best video
performance, as to below.

About Using S
VIDEO
If the optional equipment you are connecting has an S VIDEO jack
(shown at left), you can use an S VIDEO cable for improved picture
quality (compared to an A/V cable). Because S VIDEO carries only
the video signal, you also need to connect audio cables for sound, as
shown below.
