Antennas
To enjoy a clearer picture, use an outdoor antenna. The following is a brief explanation of the types of connections
that are used for a coaxial cable. If your outdoor antenna uses a 75-ohm coaxial cable with an F-type connector,
plug it into the antenna terminal at the rear of the TV set.
NOTE
• The antenna and the cable converter cannot be connected at the same time.
F-type connector
1. A 75-ohm system is generally a round cable with F-type
connector that can easily be attached to a terminal without
tools (Commercially available).
75-ohm coaxial cable (round)
2. A 300-ohm system is a flat “twin-lead” cable that can be
attached to a 75-ohm terminal through a 300/75-ohm
adapter (Commercially available).
300-ohm twin-lead cable (flat)
Cable TV/VCR connection
• Be sure to connect the antenna or the cable converter as follows. Signal reception may fail if improperly connected.
• Be sure to remember what kind of connection is made with your TV.
• The connection type will determine whether to select “Air” or “Cable” for both ANALOG-A and B when configuring “Air/
Cable” settings.

Connecting two or more D-VHS decks
Connecting D-VHS Decks (i.LINK
connection)
Up to 16 D-VHS decks can be connected using a
daisy-chain connection with i.LINK cables.
About i.LINK
i.LINK is an interface connection using a serial
transfer system and is able to transfer multimedia
data, such as digital images and digital sound,
between devices that have i.LINK terminals.
i.LINK is a term defined in the IEEE 1394 (Institute of
Electrical and Electronics Engineers) standard.
Currently, the transfer speeds are at 100 Mbps, 200
Mbps and 400 Mbps, each of them expressed as
S100, S200 and S400 respectively. On this TV, the
maximum speed is 400 Mbps.
i. LINK devices that can be connected to this
TV.
When 3 or more D-VHS decks are connected,
branch connection can be used. With branch
connections, up to 62 D-VHS decks can be
connected.
Only D-VHS decks can be connected to this TV.
Other devices such as DVD recorders, digital video
cameras, computers or computer peripheral devices
do not meet the specifications for this TV and
therefore, cannot be connected.
Materials that can be recorded with the i.LINK
Only digital programs can be recorded by D-VHS
decks connected to this TV using the i.LINK. i.LINK
recording is not compatible with ground-wave
broadcasts or external input signals (INPUT
terminals 1 through 5).
i.LINK connection
Cautions regarding i.LINK connection
E.g. When only one D-VHS deck is connected:
• Please use S400 type i.LINK cables.
• Some i.LINK devices may not relay data if their power

Parental control (setting V-CHIP level)
V-CHIP is an electronic filtering device built into your TV. This tool gives parents a great degree of control over
broadcasts accessed by their children. It allows parents to select programs judged suitable for child viewing
while blocking ones judged not suitable. It does so automatically once you activate the V-CHIP feature in your
Liquid Crystal Television.
“V-Chip” and “Status” will not be selectable from the menu if you do not first configure your secret
number. (See page 77 for Secret number setting for parental control.)
• The U.S. has two rating systems for viewing content: TV Parental Guidelines and movie ratings.
• The TV Parental Guidelines work in conjunction with the V-CHIP to help parents screen out inappropriate
television shows from their children.
• Movie ratings are used for original movies rated by the Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) as
watched on cable TV and not edited for television. The V-CHIP can also be set to block MPAA-rated movies.

Canadian Rating Systems
• The TV rating systems in Canada are based on the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC) policy on violence in television programming.
• While violence is the most important content element to be rated, the structure developed takes into
consideration other program content like language, nudity, sexuality and mature themes.
• When setting the V-CHIP on the Canadian system you can choose either the Canadian English ratings or the
Canadian French ratings.

Notice
■ When you change your adress
• If you change your address, please return the
CableCARD to your Cable Provider Company.
• You will not be able to use it at your new address.
■ About EAS(Emergency Alert System)
• In the case of a national emergency, natural disaster,
or other emergency situation, Cable MSO will
broadcast an Emergency Alert Message (EAS
message). When this unit receives an EAS message,
if the level of emergency is comparatively low, an
alert text message will be displayed on screen. If
the level of emergency is high, the receiver will be
force tuned to a details channel.
• Alert text messages will be displayed, and force
tuning will occur, even during paid programming.
Even when force tuning is active, the user can still
change the channel.
• If the unit is force tuned to a channel that has been
blocked by Parental Control, the Parental Control
setting will be given priority.
NOTE
• If you have a digital cable antenna connected, you can
receive EAS messages whether CableCARD is inserted
or not.
• EAS messages may be broadcast not only via digital
cable, but also via Analog Cable (ANALOG-A) or over-
the-air Analog transmission (ANALOG-B).
• When force tuning occurs, Video output from the
MONITOR OUTPUT terminal will also be switched to the
details channel.
• An alert text message does not output from MONITOR
OUTPUT terminal.
• If force tuning occurs during twin picture mode, twin
picture display will be automatically terminated and the
details channel will be displayed on the full screen.
