IMPORTANT

NOTE: This owner's manual is used with several

different television models. Not all features (and

drawings) discussed in this manual will necessar-

ily match those found with your television set.

This is normal and does not require that you con-

tact your dealer or request service.

Y

our TV has two separate ANT(enna)/cable inputs on the

rear of the set. These two signal inputs offer convenient

hookup options for both normal TV program viewing and

Picture-In-Picture (PIP) features.

The ANT(enna) A input is intended for use and viewing on

the TV’s main screen. Your home’s primary antenna or cable

TV signal should be connected to this input for normal TV

setup, use, and feature operation.

The PIP ANT(enna) B input is a second, or auxiliary, signal

source designed to supply your TV’s Picture-In-Picture (PIP)

feature. For many homes, the use of a single, existing antenna

or cable TV source for both ANT A and PIP ANT B will be the

preferred method of connection. This type of connection

(optional signal splitter required) will work properly for the

TV’s main onscreen features, as well as retain all the features

designed for PIP. For more details, refer to the Picture-In-

Picture section in your other owner’s manual.

1

A typical ANT(enna) A and PIP ANT B connection (using

a common signal source and an optional signal splitter):

If your antenna or cable TV signal has a round cable con-

nector (75 ohm) on the end, then you're ready to connect it to

the 75-ohm signal splitter.

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 before connecting to the 75-ohm signal

splitter.

2

Connect your Antenna or Cable TV signal to the single,

75-ohm input plug on the two-way signal splitter (optional).

Then connect two lengths of RF coaxial cable to the two out-

put plugs on the two-way signal splitter (F-type connector on

both ends).

3

Connect the twin output plugs on the signal splitter to the

ANT A and PIP ANT B inputs on the rear of the TV. Push the

round connector end of the RF coaxial cable onto the

ANT(enna) plug and screw it down finger tight (if using

threaded cables).

F

or homes with cable TV converter descrambler boxes

(with premium/movie channels scrambled), follow the

steps to the right for an alternative ANT A and PIP ANT B

feature hookup. Note that the Cable TV signal will be split

before connection to the converter box (an optional two-

way, 75-ohm signal splitter will be required).

1

Connect your cable TV signal to the single, 75-ohm input

plug on a two-way signal splitter (optional).

2

Connect one end of the RF coaxial cable to each of the

output plugs on the 75-ohm signal splitter. The two lengths

of RF coaxial cable need F-type connectors (screw-on or

push type) for both ends.

3

Connect one of the signal splitter outputs to the input termi-

nal on the Cable TV converter box. Then route another con-

nection from the cable converter output terminal to the ANT

A input on the rear of the TV.

4

Connect the remaining signal splitter output from the

splitter to the PIP ANT B input on the rear of the TV.

NOTE: Proper operation of your TV is not dependent upon connec-

tion of the PIP ANT B input. The main purpose of the input is to pro-

vide an easily connected, dedicated picture source for use of the PIP fea-

ture. The PIP ANT B input can, however, be used to connect and display

other signal source options such as a satellite dish system, an additional

external antenna, a VCR, or a video game, for example.

NOTE: Although the PIPANT B input can be used and swapped as

the source for the TV’s main picture, certain setup features (such as

AutoChron™) are based only on a signal being detected at the ANTA

input. To ensure that all features are operating properly, you may not

want to rely solely on the PIP ANT B input as your TV’s main screen

signal source.

Be sure to set the TV for the type signal

to which you've connected. (See the

“Tuner Mode A/B” section on page 3.)

Your TV can set itself to select only the

channel numbers on your cable system

(see “Auto Program" on page 3). If you

use a cable converter box, set the TV to

the same channel as the converter's CH 3/4

switch (on the back of the converter).
