The connection you choose depends on the cable found in your home. Newer 
homes are equipped with standard coaxial cable (see A

✍

It is strongly recommended to connect the antenna using a 75-ohm 
coaxial  cable to get optimum picture quality. A 300-ohm twin lead cable 
can be easily affected by radio noise and the like, resulting in signal 
deterioration. If you use a 300-ohm twin lead cable, keep it away as far 
as possible from the LCD projection TV.

✍

Do not use an indoor antenna because it is especially susceptible to 
radio noise.

If your cable provider does not feature local channels, you may find this set 
up convenient.

Select CABLE or antenna (ANT) mode by pressing 

ANT

 on the remote 

control.

This is the preferred basic cable TV hookup to use if:

❑

Your cable TV company scrambles some channels, but not all of them 
(pay channels vs. regular cable channels) and you need to use a cable 
box, and

❑

You want to enjoy the Twin View feature.

With this setup you can:

❑

Use the LCD projection TV remote control to change channels using 
your cable box when the signal is scrambled.

❑

Use the LCD projection TV remote control to change channels using 
your LCD projection TV when the signal is not scrambled. (Your LCD 
projection TV’s tuner provides a better signal than the cable box.)

❑

Use the Twin View feature. (When all channels are routed through your 
cable box, only one channel is sent to the LCD projection TV, so you 
can not use the Twin View or Channel Index features for your cable 
box.)

Connect the Cable TV cable to the LCD projection TV’s VHF/UHF 
jack.

Using a coaxial cable, connect the LCD projection TV’s TO 
CONVERTER jack to the cable box’s IN jack. The LCD projection 
TV’s internal converter allows you to switch between unscrambled 
signals coming straight into the LCD projection TV and scrambled 
signals coming in through the cable box, eliminating the need for an 
external splitter.

✍

To receive channels with an antenna, you need to turn your Cable to OFF 
(see page 62) and perform the Auto Program function (see page 63).

Using a coaxial cable, connect the cable box’s OUT jack to the LCD 
projection TV’s AUX jack.

✍

Pressing ANT on the remote control switches between the channels 
coming in through the cable box (scrambled) and those coming directly 
to the TV (unscrambled).

Use this hookup if:

❑

You subscribe to a cable TV system that uses scrambled or encoded 
signals requiring a cable box to view all channels, and

❑

You do not intend to hook up any other audio or video equipment to 
your LCD projection TV.

When all channels are routed through your cable box, only one unscrambled 
channel is sent to the LCD projection TV, so you cannot use the Twin View 
feature. If some channels are scrambled, but others are not, consider using 
the hookup on page 26 instead.

Connect the coaxial connector from your cable service to the cable 
box’s IN jack.

Using a coaxial cable, connect the cable box’s OUT jack to the LCD 
projection TV’s VHF/UHF jack.

Also, set Cable to ON in the Channel menu (see page 62).

Setting the Channel Fix feature in the Channel menu (see “Using the 
Channel Menu” on page 62), ensures that you do not accidentally switch 
the channels using your LCD projection TV.

✍

Your Sony remote control can be programmed to operate your cable box 
(see “Programming the Remote Control” on page 77). 

✍

To change channels using the cable box, set your LCD projection TV to 
channel 3 or 4 depending on the cable box channel output. If you will be 
controlling all channel selection through your cable box, consider using 
the Channel Fix feature to set your LCD projection TV to channel 3 or 4 
(see page 63).
