Cable TV connection

Generally, the incoming cable for a cable TV system can be connected directly to the TV antenna terminal just like a
home antenna connection. (A-1)

But some cable companies offer "premium pay channels". Since the signals of these premium pay channels are

scrambled, a cable TV converter/decoder is generally provided to the subscribers by the cable TV company. This
decoder box is necessary for normal viewing of the scrambled channels. We recommend that you consult your cable
TV company for more specific instructions on installing cable TV. (A-2)

(A-2) Cable with a decoder box (Unscrambled and Scrambled channels)

• The unscrambled channels will come through the

ANT-1 terminal whenever the ANT1/2 button on the
Remote Control, or the ANTA/IDEO button on the TV,
is in "ANT 1" mode.

• The scrambled channels from the decoder box will

come through the ANT-2 terminal whenever the
ANT1/2 button, or the ANTA/IDEO button, is in "ANT

2" mode.

• Set the TV and the VCR on channel 3 or 4 to match

the output channel of the converter.

Note:
The decoding device may or may not be a part of the

cable converter.
