Connecting External Equipment - Sharp 28LS-92EC Operation Manual

Connecting external equipment

There is a wide range of audio and video equipment that can
be connected to your TV.
The following connection diagrams show you where the differ-
ent equipment should be connected at the back side of the
TV.
Via the Euro connector
Your TV set has one Euro connector (SCART) socket. If you
want to connect external equipment (e.g. video, decoder,
etc.) which have Euro connectors, to your TV, use SCART
terminal.
If an external device is connected via Euroconnector socket
the TV will be switched to AV mode automatically.
RGB mode
If a piece of equipment outputs RGB signals use the SCART
socket as this is RGB ready.
Via the ANT (aerial) socket
If you want to connect to your TV, peripherals like video re-
corders or decoders, but the device you want to connect
does not have Euroconnector, you should connect it to the
ANT input of your TV set.
If the VCR is connected via antenna input it is suggested
to use the Programme 0.
Decoder
Cable TV offers you a wide choice of programs. Most of them
are free, others are to be paid for by the viewer. This means
that you will need to subscribe to the broadcasting organisa-
tion whose programmes you wish to receive. This organisa-
tion will supply you a corresponding decoder unit to allow the
programmes to be unscrambled.
For further information ask your dealer. See also the booklet
supplied with your decoder.
Connect a decoder with an aerial socket to the TV
• Connect the aerial cable.
Connect a decoder without an aerial socket to the
TV
• Connect the decoder to your TV with a eurocable (RCA
Jack Cable) to SCART socket. When your decoder has a
Euro connector / RCA Jack you can obtain better picture
quality if you connect a eurocable (RCA Jack Cable) to
SCART socket.
TV and Video Recoder (VCR)

Better picture quality can be obtained if you also connect a
eurocable to SCART socket.
NTSC Playback
Connect NTSC VCR player to SCART socket at the back of
the TV.
