Explanation of Jacks (in alphabetical order)

This section describes the jacks on the back panel of your TV. There are several ways to

connect devices.

ANTENNA/CABLE ANALOG INPUT Lets you connect a coaxial cable to receive the signal

from the antenna, cable, or cable box.

ANTENNA/CABLE DIGITAL INPUT Lets you connect a coaxial cable to receive the signal

from the antenna, digital cable, or digital cable box.

COMPONENT INPUTS Lets you connect a device that has component video jacks, such as a

DVD player.

• CMP1 Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr (Component Video) Provides optimum picture quality because the

video is separated into three signals. Use three video-grade component cables for the

connection. When using CMP1 Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr, make sure you connect left and right audio

cables to the CMP1 L and R AUDIO jacks.

• CMP1 L AUDIO Provides left audio connection when using the CMP1 video inputs. The

left audio connector is usually white.

• CMP1 R AUDIO Provides right audio connection when using the CMP1 video inputs. The

right audio connector is usually red.

• CMP2 Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr (Component Video) Same as described for CMP1 Y Pb/Cb Pr/Cr and

CMP1 Audio above. Make sure you connect the left and right audio cables to the CMP2 L

and R AUDIO jacks.

HDMI/DVI Input Lets you connect a device, such as a digital cable box, with an HDMI or a

DVI output.

• HDMI/DVI INPUT (High-Deﬁ nition Multimedia Interface/Digital Visual

Interface) Provides an uncompressed digital connection that carries both video and

audio data by way of an integrated mini-plug cable. Since HDMI technology is based on

Digital Visual Interface (DVI), the jack on the back of your TV is also compatible with DVI

devices.

• L AUDIO (used for DVI only) Provides left audio connection when using the DVI jack.

The left audio connector is usually white.

• R AUDIO (used for DVI only) Provides right audio connection when using the DVI jack.

The right audio connector is usually red.

Note: Remember to connect the left and right audio cables because the DVI cable

carries only the picture signal, not the sound.

MONITOR OUT Connect a VCR or DVD-recorder to record digital and analog programs

from the Cable or Antenna Input (excluding copy-protected programs and component video

formats) while the TV is turned on. You must leave the TV on the same channel you are

recording.

• L (Audio) Provides left audio connection when using the MONITOR OUTPUT jack. The

left audio connector is usually white.

• R (Audio) Provides right audio connection when using the MONITOR OUTPUT jack. The

right audio connector is usually red.

VGA Connect your computer, or other device with a VGA output, to this jack using a 15 pin

D-sub cable.

VGA AUDIO (Stereo mini jack) Use to obtain sound when a PC is connected to the VGA jack.

Use a 3.5 mm stereo mini pin cable (sometimes referred to as 1/8” stereo mini pin) to connect

a PC to your TV. Go to page 12 for more information.
