CONNECTIONS FOR YOUR TV
CONNECTION CENTER ON BACK OF TV
The connection center on the back of your TV will be
similar to the one shown below. These connections allow
three basic "types" of video inputs to provide for up to 5 dif-
ferent viewing sources to your TV.
Using these five connections, you can choose from a variety
of antenna sources and audio/video components for your
viewing pleasure. Note that the correct source must be
selected from the SOURCE MENU (as described later in
this booklet) to watch TV. Refer to the illustration while
reading the following descriptions.

1. ANT/CABLE 1 or ANT/CABLE 2
Use one of these jacks for 75-ohm, antenna-type
signal connections to your TV. Attach your anten-
na, cable-TV line, or other video component to
either of these jacks. The input may come from an
outdoor or master antenna, cable-TV decoder box,
or the 75-ohm TV output from a VCR.
2. LOOP OUT
Use this output jack to route the cable-TV signal
back to the decoder supplied by your cable-TV
system. When connected as shown in Steps 1C and
1D, you can view basic (unscrambled) cable chan-
nels by selecting the ANT/CABLE 2 source or
premium (scrambled) cable channels tuned by the
decoder by selecting ANT/CABLE 1 source.
3. VIDEO 1 IN or VIDEO 2 IN
Video and audio (Base Band) input from VCR or
other video component (Disc Player). Gives im-
proved picture quality performance over that ob-
tained through the ANT/CABLE jacks.
4. VIDEO 1 LOOP OUT
Use these jacks to send the incoming video and
audio signals (from VIDEO 1 IN) to another com-
ponent such as a second VCR or TV monitor.
5. S-VIDEO 1 IN
Input from a Super-VHS VCR. Both left and right
audio jacks are provided as well as the S-Video
(Y-C) jack.
6. EXTERNAL SPEAKERS
Terminals for connecting external left and right
stereo speakers.
7. EXTERNAL AMP
Standard Phono Jack connectors for output to an
external amplifier.
8. SURROUND SPEAKER
Standard Phono Jack connector for output to op-
tional surround sound speakers.
9. SPEAKERS INT/EXT
Use this switch to turn the TV's internal speakers
OFF or ON when an external audio amplifier or
external speakers are connected to the TV. (See
steps 4 and 5.)
