About the connection illustrations
You can connect different types and brands of devices to your TV in several different configurations. The connection illustrations in
this manual are representative of typical device connections only. The input/output terminals on your devices may differ from those
illustrated herein. For details on connecting and using your specific devices, refer to each device’s owner’s manual.
Connecting a CableCARD™
This TV is capable of receiving analog basic, digital basic, and
digital premium cable television programming by direct
connection to a cable system providing such programming.
A security card (such as a CableCARD™), provided by your
cable operator, is required to view encrypted digital
programming.
Certain advanced and interactive digital cable services (such as
video-on-demand, a cable operator’s enhanced program guide,
and data-enhanced television services) will not work with the
use of a CableCARD
™ and may require the use of a separate set-
top box from your cable operator.
For more information, call your local cable operator.
You will need:
one CableCARD ™ (contact your cable operator)
digital cable subscription service (contact your cable
operator)
To view encrypted digital channels:
1. Connect your digital Cable TV cable to ANT-1.
2. With the front of the CableCARD™ facing up, insert it
into the CableCARD ™ slot on the back of the TV (see
illustration below left).
3. After the CableCARD ™ is inserted, a CableCARD ™ option
appears in the Applications menu, with informational
screens provided by your CableCARD
™ service. See page
44 for additional information.

CableCARD is a trademark of Cable Television Laboratories, Inc.
Note:
• Always use EJECT to remove the CableCARD™. Never remove the
CableCARD™ by hand.
• Never insert any object or card (including, without limitation, a
PCMCIA card) other than a CableCARD™ into the CableCARD™
slot.
• Always make sure the CableCARD™ is facing the correct direction.
• Connect the cable for your digital cable TV service to ANT-1 only.
• When using a CableCARD™, channel programming is unnecessary
because the CableCARD™ automatically loads the cable channel
list into the TV’s channel memory (page 40).
• The CableCARD™ may take up to 5 minutes to “pair” with the TV
and download channel information. CableCARD™ information and
channels will not be available until this process is completed.
