EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING AS PER
NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE, ANSI/NFPA 70
•Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is
connected to the television equipment, be sure the antenna
system
is grounded so as to provide some protection against
voltage surges and built-up static charges.
Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70,
provides information with regard to proper grounding of the
mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire
to
an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors,
location of antenna-discharge unit, connection to grounding
electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.

Introduction to Connections
Experiencing HD Images
An HDTV without an HD source is just an ordinary TV.
To enjoy HD images on the TV, you should get
HD programming from the following:
•Over-the-air broadcasting via HD quality antenna
•HD cable/satellite subscription
•HD compatible external equipment
•For information on updating to HD programming, ask your cable/satellite service provider.
Types of Connection
Image quality differs depending on the terminal used. To enjoy clearer images, check the output terminals of your
external equipment and use its appropriate terminals for higher quality images.
For connecting the
TV to external equipment, use commercially available cables.
•The illustrations of the terminals are for explanation purposes and may vary slightly from the actual products.
