Getting Started
Cable..TV Operation
Your new TV is designed to receive up
tO 181 TV channels, including 125
non-scrambled cable channels (see
chartbelow).To usethisTV on a
cable-TV system, confirm that the
cable-TV system is properly
connected to your TV. Since cable
systems vary, you may wish to consult
your local cable-TV company for
additional information.
If your cable-TV company follows
EIA/NCTA channel-identification
standards, most of the channels
offered by your cable company will be
identified by channel numbers that are
identical to those on your TV. For
example,'if your cable-TV system has
programs on cable channel 20, you can
choose this channel by selecting
channel 20 on your TV.
Some cable-TV companies do not
follow the EIA/NCTA standards and
instead assign their own channel
identification. For example, some use
the standard broadcast channel
numbers (2-13) for channels 2-13, but
identifytheir otherchannels with
letters. If your cable company does
not follow the EIA/NCTA standards,
ask them for across reference that
shows to which channels you should
tune your TV to receive their cable-
TV channels.
Scrambled Cable-TV Channels
Some cable companies offer
"premium-pay" channels in which the
signal is scrambled. Descrambling
these signals for normalviewing may
requiretheuse ofa cablebox which is
generallyprovidedby thecable
company.
How you connect the cable box to
your TV depends upon whether or not
the cable box can be controlled by
remote control. If your cable' box is
remote controllable, you will want to
connect it as shown in Diagram B on
the previous page.
If your cable box cannot be controlled
by remote control, you will still be
able to remotely control
"unscrambled" channels with the
connection shown in Diagram C on
the p_vious page.
