Chapter 2: Connecting your TV Overview of cable types Note: Two dual-wand IR blaster/G-LINK® cables are included with your TV. All other required cables, if not provided with your other devices, can be purchased at many electronics accessory suppliers. ● Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your antenna, cable TV service, and/or cable converter box to the ANT-1 and/or ANT-2 RF inputs on your TV. ● Standard A/V cables (composite video) usually come in sets of three, and are for use with video devices with analog audio and composite video output. These cables (and the related inputs on your TV) are typically color-coded according to use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for stereo left (or mono) audio. ● S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video output. Separate audio cables are required for a complete connection. Note: An S-video cable provides better picture performance than a composite video cable. If you connect an S-video cable, be sure to disconnect the standard (composite) video cable or the picture performance will be unacceptable. ● Component video cables come in sets of three and are for use with video devices with component video output. (ColorStream® is Toshiba's brand of component video.) These cables are typically color-coded red, green, and blue. Separate audio cables are required for a complete connection. Note: Component video cables provide better picture performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video cable. ● HDMI cable is for use with devices with HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) output. HDMI cable delivers digital audio and video in its native format. This cable carries both video and audio information; therefore, separate audio cables are not required for a complete HDMI device connection. See page 21 for further details. Note: HDMI cable provides better picture performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video cable. ● IEEE1394 cable is for use with video devices with compressed digital video output that meet CEA specifications for IEEE1394. This cable carries both video and audio information; therefore, no separate audio cables are required for a complete connection. See pages 25-27. Note: • The transmission capability of any IEEE1394 cable used with this TV must be S400 (400 Mbps maximum). • IEEE1394 cable provides better picture performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video cable. ● Dual-wand IR blaster/G-LINK® cable is for use with video devices with IR (infrared) remote control. Two of these cables are included with your TV. One is for connection to the G-LINK® terminal (page 28) to enable TV Guide On Screen® recording features (Chapters 5 and 7). The other can be used with the TV's IR pass-through feature (page 22) and TheaterNet™ on-screen device control feature (page 50). Note: The two IR blaster/G-LINK® cables included with your TV have specific characteristics that allow them to work properly with this TV's IR OUT and G-LINK® terminals. Never use other aftermarket IR blaster or G-LINK® cables with this TV. Other cables may not function properly and can cause damage. THIS TYPE OF DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED BY YOUR TOSHIBA WARRANTY. ● Optical audio cable is for connecting receivers with Dolby Digital or PCM (pulse-code modulation) optical audio input to the TV's DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal. See page 24. ● Ethernet (RJ-45) cable is used to connect the TV to your home network. See page 30 and Chapter 11. Coaxial (F-type) cable Standard A/V cables (red/white/yellow) S-video cable Component video cables (red/green/blue) HDMI cable IEEE1394 cable (4-pin) Dual-wand IR blaster/ G-LINK® cable (2 included) Optical audio cable Ethernet (RJ-45) cable Note: Although your TV includes both HDMI and IEEE1394 connections, it may not operate with another device you have that includes such a connection. For example, the IEEE1394 ports are not intended to operate with current model Mini DV camcorders, and the HDMI input is not intended for connection to a computer. Copyright protection requirements may also prohibit or limit connectivity. See page 21 for details about the HDMI input. See pages 25-27 for details about the IEEE1394 ports.
