ComponentVideo Input Jacks
Cables used: component video or AJV
with RCA-type phono plugs
Allow you to connect accessory devices such
as DVD players. Separating the video into
three signals, these inputs provide excellent
quality. Be sure to connect the left and right
audio cables, because the Y. Pb, Pr jacks
receive only the picture signal.
S-Video Jacks
Cable used: S-Video
Provide a higher quality picture than the Video
(composite) jacks because the color part of the
picture is separated from the black and white
portion. Be sure to connect the left and right
audio cables, because the S-Video jacks receive
only the picture signal.
Video (called composite) Jacks
Cable used:A/V with RCA-type phono
plug
Provide better picture performance than the
antenna RF input. Be sure to connect the audio
cables, because the video jacks receive only the
picture signal.
Audio Jacks
Cables used:A/V with RCA-type
phono plug
Provide sound for the video inputs. If your
accessory device has only one output for audio,
connect it to the left (color coded white) audio
jack on the TV.
Antenna RF Jack
Cables used: RF coaxial cable (75£_)
Allows you to connect an antenna, cable TV. or
components having only RF outputs to the
antenna input on the TV. RF coaxial cables are
available in push-on or screw-on type.
Signal Splitter
Allows you to route an antenna or cable TV
signal to two inputs.
300- to 75-ohm Twin-lead Adapter
Accepts twin-lead wires from an antenna and
allows connection to the antenna input on the
TV. If your antenna is already equipped with
an RF coaxial cable you will not need this
adapter.

HELPFUL HINTS
•Signals connected to the HD INPUT-AV 4
inputs will provide you with the best picture.
Examples of soumes for such signals are a
progressive-scan DVD player (480p) or an
HD receiver (1080i or 480p) with YPbPr or
RGB outputs. The 1080i signals will pro-
vide you with the best picture possible.
Devices with RGB outputs may or may not
have H and V sync outputs to connect to the
HD INPUT-AV 4 H and V SYNC inputs.
• Among the 480i-compatible inputs
(ANTENNA IN 75£L INPUT AV-1, INPUT
AV-2, and the side jack panel), you will get
the best picture from the component video
inputs (labeled YPbPr). The S-Video inputs
will provide the next-best level of picture
quality.
The side jack-ptmel inputs (recognized by the
TV as AV3) are convenient for connecting a
camcorder. See page 16.
