Chapter 1: Connections & Setup
Things to Consider Before You Connect
Protect Against Power Surges
•
•
•
Connect all components before you plug any of their power cords into the wall outlet.
Turn off the TV and/or component before you connect or disconnect any cables.
Make sure all antennas and cables are properly grounded. Refer to the Important Safeguards
sheet packed with your TV.
Protect Components from Overheating
•
Don’t block ventilation holes on any of the components. Arrange the components so that air
can circulate freely.
•
•
•
Don’t stack components.
If you place components in a stand, make sure you allow adequate ventilation.
If you connect an audio receiver or amplifier, place it on the top shelf so the heated air from it
won’t flow around other components.
Position Cables Properly to Avoid Audio Interference
•
Insert each cable firmly into the designated jack.
•
If you place components above the TV, route all cables down the side of the back of the TV
instead of straight down the middle of the TV.
•
If your antenna uses 300-ohm twin lead cables, do not coil the cables. Also, keep the twin
lead cables away from audio/video cables.
Important Stand and Base Safety Information
Choose the location for your TV carefully. Place the TV on a stand or base that is of adequate
size and strength to prevent the TV from being accidentally tipped over, pushed off, or pulled off.
This could cause personal injury and/or damage the TV. Refer to the Important Safeguards sheet
packed with your TV.
Use Indirect Light
Don’t place the TV where sunlight or room lighting will be directed toward the screen. Use soft or
indirect lighting.
Things to Consider Before You Connect
You will need a master remote or ClonePRO™ to set up the TV. Go to the accessory page at the
back of this manual or contact your RCA commercial distributor to purchase these.

(Model J20F635 only)
The TV has front input jacks for your convenience: one set of audio/video inputs and a headphone jack. These jacks are
towards the front of the TV on the side. To access the component you connected to the front of the TV, press the INPUT
button on your remote until FRNT appears on the screen. The jacks are ideal for connecting a video game console or a
camcorder.
Note: When connecting a component that only has one audio jack, such as some camcorders, use the TV’s AUDIO
L/MONO jack to hear the audio.
H-PHONE Allows you to connect headphones to listen to the sound coming from the TV.
L/MONO and R AUDIO Receives audio from another component such as a VCR, camcorder, or video game console.
VIDEO Receives video from another component such as a VCR, camcorder, or video game console.
Front Panel Buttons
If you cannot locate your remote, you can use the front panel buttons of your TV to operate many of the TV’s features.

Model J20F742 Healthcare
Rear Input Jacks
The rear jacks for both models are identical except that the model above (for healthcare industry) has an additional jack for
a hospital pendant.
Hospital Pendant (Model J20F742 only)
This specialized remote control is recognized for use in patient beds. It is used to connect to a pillow speaker, nurse-call
system, or other device to supply speaker-level audio or accept remote control commands. The connector is a (3-wire)
phone jack. Some are simple, having one-button operation of the TV; others have enhanced capability for greater control.
Specific models and requirements depend on what other devices are in the hospital room, for example, nurse-call systems.
See your distributor for more information.
Explanation of Jacks and Cables
This manual covers TV models that have different back panels. Match the back panel of your TV to one of the back panels
shown. This section describes the jacks you can use to make connections. There are several ways to connect components to
your TV.
VIDEO 1
VIDEO, AUDIO R and L/MONO INPUTS Used to connect components such as a
VCR, DVD player, camcorder, laserdisc player or video game consoles with audio/video
outputs. These jacks are used for most audio/video connections between components.
•
•
•
•
R (RIGHT) AUDIO Provides right audio connection. The right audio connector is
usually red.
L/MONO AUDIO Provides left audio connection. The left audio connector is
usually white.
Audio/Video Jacks
VIDEO Provides composite video connection. The video connector is usually
yellow.
S-VIDEO Provides better picture quality than the video jacks because the color part
of the signal is separated from the black and white part of the picture. When using
S-VIDEO IN, make sure to connect left and right audio cables to the L/MONO and R
AUDIO Input jacks (an S-Video cable is required).

The ClonePRO™
If several TVs need to be programmed with the same menu settings, an
optional ClonePRO remote can be used to copy all of the menu settings from
one TV into other TVs to reduce installation time. Information can be both
downloaded to and uploaded from the ClonePRO using the DSCI port on the
TV’s back panel or using the IR sensor. A ClonePRO can be obtained from your
RCA commercial distributor. Chapter 2 has information about this remote, see
page 20. If you want to set other menu options before using the ClonePRO,
continue on in this chapter. You can use the ClonePRO at any time.

Parental Controls and V-Chip
The choices in the USA V-CHIP menu involve software inside your TV (referred to as V-Chip) which allows you to block TV
programs and movies based on violence, sex, or other content you may believe children should not view.
Once you block programs, you can unblock programs by entering a password.
By default, the software inside your TV is turned “off.”
How V-Chip Works
V-Chip reads the program’s age-based rating (TV-MA, TV-14, etc.) and content themes [(Violence (V), Adult Language (L),
etc.)]. If you have blocked the rating and/or content themes that the program contains, you will receive the message, "This
channel has not been approved for viewing".Change channel or press OK to enter password and temporarily deactivate the
Parental Control.
Broadcasters are not required to provide content themes, so programs received with no content themes will only be
blocked if you block their age-based rating. You can also block out programs that have been given a rating of Not Rated,
and programs that are considered unrated. The TV age-based ratings and content themes you can block follow:

Using the TV’s Features
USA V-Chip Rating System
TV-MA (Mature Audience Only) Specifically designed to be viewed by adults and may be unsuitable for children under 17. It
contains one or more of the following content themes: crude indecent language (L), explicit sexual activity (S), or graphic
violence (V).
TV-14 (Parents Strongly Cautioned) Contains some material that many parents would find unsuitable for children under 14.
Parents are strongly urged to exercise greater care in monitoring this program and are cautioned against letting children
under the age of 14 watch unattended. This program contains one or more of the following content themes: intensely
suggestive dialogue (D), strong coarse language (L), intense sexual situations (S), or intense violence (V).
TV-PG (Parental Guidance Suggested) Contains material that parents may find unsuitable for younger children. Many parents
may want to watch it with their younger children. The program contains one or more of the following content themes:
some suggestive dialogue (D), infrequent coarse language (L), some sexual situations (S), or moderate violence (V).
TV-G (General Audience) Most parents would find this program suitable for all ages. It contains little or no sexual dialogue
(D) or situations (S), no strong language (L), and little or no violence (V).
TV-Y7 (Directed to Children 7 years and older) Designed for children ages 7 and above. It may be more appropriate for
children who have acquired the developmental skills needed to distinguish between make-believe and reality. Themes and
elements in this program may include mild fantasy violence (FV) or comedic violence, or may frighten children under the
age of 7.
TV-Y (All Children) Themes and elements in this program are designed for a young audience, including children from ages
2-6. It is not expected to frighten younger children.
Canadian English V-Chip Rating System
18+ (Adults) Programming intended for adults 18 and older. It may contain elements of violence, language, and sexual
content which could make it unsuitable for viewers under 18. Violence Guidelines: May contain violence integral to the
development of the plot, character or theme, intended for adult audiences. Other Content Guidelines: May contain graphic
language and explicit portrayals of nudity and/or sex.
14+ (Viewers 14 and over) Programming contains themes or content which may not be suitable for viewers under the age
of 14. Parents are strongly cautioned to exercise discretion in permitting viewing by pre-teens and early teens. Violence
Guidelines: May contain intense scenes of violence. Could deal with mature themes and societal issues in a realistic fashion.
Other Content Guidelines: May contain scenes of nudity and/or sexual activity. There could be frequent use of profanity.
PG (Parental Guidance) Programming intended for a general audience but which may not be suitable for younger children
(under the age of 8). Parents may consider some content inappropriate for unsupervised viewing by children aged 8-13.
Violence Guidelines: Depictions of conflict and/or aggression will be limited and moderate; may include physical, fantasy,
or supernatural violence. Other Content Guidelines: May contain infrequent mild profanity, or mildly suggestive language.
Could also contain brief scenes of nudity.
G (General Audience) Programming considered acceptable for all ages groups. While not designed specifically for children,
it is understood younger viewers may be part of the audience. Violence Guidelines: Will contain very little violence, either
physical or verbal or emotional. Will be sensitive to themes which could frighten a younger child, will not depict realistic
scenes of violence which minimize or gloss over the effects of violent acts. Other Content Guidelines: There may be some
inoffensive slang, no profanity and no nudity.
C8+ (Children 8 and Older) Programming generally considered acceptable for children 8 years and over to watch on their
own. Violence Guidelines: Violence will not be portrayed as the preferred, acceptable, or only way to resolve conflict or
encourage children to imitate dangerous acts which they may see on television. Any realistic depictions of violence will be
infrequent, discreet, of low intensity and will show the consequences of the acts. Other Content Guidelines: There will be
no profanity, nudity or sexual content.

C (Children) Programming intended for children under age 8. Violence Guidelines: Careful attention is paid to themes
which could threaten children’s sense of security and well being. There will be no realistic scenes of violence. Depictions of
aggressive behavior will be infrequent and limited to portrayals that are clearly imaginary, comedic or unrealistic in nature.
Other Content Guidelines: There will be no offensive language, nudity or sexual content.
Canadian French V-Chip Rating System
18+ (Adults) Programming is for adults only. This program contains sustained violence or extremely violent scenes.
16+ (Viewers 16 and over) Programming is not suitable for those under age 16. This program contains frequent scenes of
violence or intensely violent scenes.
13+ (Viewers 13 and over) Programming may not be suitable for children under the age of 13. This program either contains
several violent scenes or one or more scenes that are violent enough to affect them. Viewing in the company of an adult is
therefore strongly recommended for children under the age of 13.
8+ (Viewers 8 and over) Not recommended for young children. This program is suitable for most audiences, but it contains
mild or occasional violence that could upset young children. Viewing in the company of an adult is therefore recommended
for young children (under the age of 8) who do not distinguish between reality and imagination.
G (General Audience) This program is suitable for audiences of all ages. It contains no violence, or any violence that it does
contain is either minimal or is presented in a humorous manner, as a caricature, or in an unrealistic way.

Using the ClonePRO™
Modes of operation
The ClonePRO operates from one of two modes:
DSCI Connect a DSCI cable to the ClonePRO and to the TV’s DSCI port
on the back panel.
IR (Infrared) This operation is wireless. Press ON to begin using the
remote in IR mode.
The corresponding “ready” light indicates the mode of operation, and the
corresponding “busy” light indicates activity in this mode.
Buttons with black labels function similarly in both modes, while green labels
operate DSCI mode and red labels operate IR mode.
DSCI mode
The ClonePRO enters this mode when it is connected to the TV’s Digital Serial
Communications Interface port via a cable (included).
• Any standard (no-flip, 1-to-1) 8-conductor computer-networking cable
may be used.
• No battery is required in this mode.
• If the unit is already in IR mode, press OFF to speed the transition to
DSCI mode.
DSCI (green) buttons
Comm Restores the TV to normal commercial operation, essentially undoing the effect of the LEGACY and DECOM
buttons.
Decom “Decommercializes” the TV to facilitate aftermarket resale.
[Factory] This button has no functionality with this product.
LEARN Begins the process of learning the settings from a TV that has been setup as desired.
Note: Pressing LEARN overwrites any settings already in the ClonePRO.
Legacy Places the TV in a mode in which it emulates the behavior of older models. This is a required part of the
configuration for some applications.
POWER Turns on the TV. It is recommended, though not required, when in DSCI mode to view on-screen displays.
[Status]: Press and hold the INFO button for several seconds to display settings stored in the ClonePRO and the TV. For example:
Mem: CB:36 TV:36
This tells you the ClonePRO and the TV have 36 pages of information stored in memory.

Other Information
Across the screen are red dashes. Press any button on the remote control you are using. Red pulses should appear, telling
you the TV is recognizing the remote and is able to send out that information. If red pulses don’t appear, contact your RCA
distributor.
TEACH: This begins the process of teaching the settings stored in the ClonePRO to the TV to which it is connected.
Note: Pressing TEACH overwrites any settings already in the TV.
After successful teaching, the TV will turn off and reboot.
If the memory-image stored in the clone-box is not valid for the TV, an on-screen message will advise of the conflicting
memory-sizes.
IR mode
The ClonePRO enters the IR mode when any button on the bottom row of the keypad is pressed (without connection to a
TV DSCI port). A standard 9V battery (accessed via a small rear panel) is required to enable this mode.
Notes: Like any IR (infrared) remote control, the ClonePRO requires a reasonable line of sight between it and the TV
for proper signaling. Obstructions, long distances, sharp angles and certain specialty lighting can reduce the effective
range.
If the “IR ready” light stays on longer than 1 minute by itself, temporarily remove the battery to reset it.
Remove the battery prior to long-term storage.
IR (red) Buttons
Note: You must press the ON button for the IR buttons to operate.
Master+ & Master- The Master- button disables access to the TV’s master menus via the master remote. (Some third-party
devices, attached to the TV’s DSCI port as part of a larger system, may disable access to master menus even after they are
disconnected.) To enable the master menus, press Master+.
OFF Turns the TV off, and turns the ClonePRO off.
ON Turns the TV on, and turns on the ClonePRO IR mode, ready for subsequent buttons. Note that the unit will
automatically turn itself off 30 seconds after the last button has been pressed to extend battery-life.
TEACH Begins teaching the settings stored in the ClonePRO to the TV, effectively “Cloning” the initially configured TV.
May be made more reliable for older models by first filling the memory of the example TV with channel-labels on unused
channels.
After an IRTEACH, older-model TVs do not need to reboot.
Note: Pressing TEACH overwrites any settings already in the TV.
•
•
•
A TV must be turned on before being taught in IR mode.
After successful teaching, the TV turns off and turns on with the new settings.
If the TV displays the message Cloning Timeout or Cloning Aborted, press TEACH again to retry, experimenting with
the ClonePRO at different distances and angles from the TV.
•
If no valid settings have been stored via a DSCI LEARN, the IR ready light will come on but nothing will appear on
the TV screen.
Note: The ClonePRO cannot be used to cross clone (to copy the memory of older models into newer models, or vice
versa), because the two have completely different memory-maps, memory-sizes, features and settings.
[Config]: Pressing and holding this button in IR mode toggles the “decommercialization” and aftermarket resale of older-
model televisions. Note that this is not reversible after turning-off older-model TVs.

Cloning a TV
Use the ClonePRO or a master remote to complete any necessary setup steps to the TV, such
as Auto Channel Search, changing Access & Power options, etc. Go to Chapter 1 for more
information on setting up the TV. When you have finished setting up the TV, you can use it as
your example TV.
1. Connect the ClonePRO to the example TV’s DSCI port.
2. It is recommended, though not required, to turn on the TV. Press the POWER button.
3. Press the LEARN button to begin the cloning process. When it is complete, Cloning
Complete is displayed on-screen.
4. Take the ClonePRO to each subsequent TV and then (in either DSCI or IR mode) TEACH
each TV, monitoring the process on-screen.
The settings learned by the ClonePRO remain indefinitely, ready to TEACH the next TV until
overwritten by a new LEARN operation.
General troubleshooting
Problems with the DSCI mode
• Make sure the TV is plugged into a live electrical outlet.
• Make sure the ClonePRO is plugged into the TV’s DSCI port.
• The connecting cable should have at least 6 wires, mapping 1-to-1 (not flipped).
ClonePro remote isn't working
• Check the battery. Place a new 9V battery in the unit if the battery is old.
• Make sure the ClonePRO is pointed at the TV with a clear line of sight.
• If you are trying to TEACH, make sure there is a valid memory stored in the ClonePRO
(Check by going into DSCI-mode [Status].)
