Example of Antenna Grounding

as per NEC - National Electric Code

f Cable TV signal into your home is a

single cable (75 ohm) the connection

to the TV is easy.

Connect the Cable TV cable

directly to the 75

Ω jack on the

Rear of TV

combination antenna receives normal

broadcast channels (VHF 2-13 and

UHF 14-69). Your connection is easy

since there is only one 75

Ω (ohm)

antenna plug on the back of your TV -

and that’s where the antenna goes.

If your antenna has a round

cable (75 ohm) on the end, then

you're ready to connect it to the

TV. Go to step 2.

If your antenna has flat twin-

lead wire (300 ohm), you first

need to attach the antenna wires

to the screws on a 300 to 75

ohm adapter (not supplied with

TV).

Push the round end of the

adapter or antenna cable onto

the 75

Ω jack on the rear of the

TV. If the round end of the

antenna cable is threaded, screw

it down tight.

he SmartLock™ feature is an integrated cir-

cuit that receives and processes data sent by

broadcasters, or other program providers, that

contain program content advisories. When pro-

grammed by the viewer, a TV with SmartLock™

can respond to the content advisories and block

program content that may be found objection-

able (such as offensive language, violence, sexual

situations, etc.). This is a great feature to censor

the type of viewing children may watch.

SmartLock™ offers various BLOCK-

ING controls from which to choose:

Access Code - An Access Code must be

set to prevent children from unblocking

questionable or censored programming set

by their parents.

Channel Block - After an access code has

been programmed, you can block individual

channels including the A/V inputs.

Clear All - Allows you clear all channels

being blocked from your viewing set with

the Channel Block Control.

Block All - Allows you to block ALL chan-

nels and A/V inputs at one time.

Movie Ratings - Certain blocking options

exist which will block programming based on

ratings patterned by the Motion Pictures

Association of America.

TV Ratings - Just like the Movie Ratings,

programs can be blocked from viewing using

standard TV ratings set by TV broadcasters.
