Sony TV & Home A/V Instruction Manual

Based on the information you provided we are unable to match you with a specific hookup

recommendation. For your convenience this document provides the four most common hookup

configurations for the devices you specified. You can customize the connections to suit your

individual preferences and viewing habits.

Some hookup recommendations have two cable options listed in the cable section. You will only

need the cables listed under the cable option you choose. You can also use a combination of

cables rather than one type throughout.

This hookup guide uses generic

names for connection jacks and input

labels. The table on the right lists

some of the label variations you may

find on your equipment.

If you don’t have a cable box or satellite receiver (AKA set-top box), skip the steps for the set-

top box. Connect the coaxial cable from the wall into the RF in connection on the next device. If

you’re not connecting a broadcast signal source, disregard the steps involving the set-top box

and begin with the steps for the equipment you are connecting.

This guide provides basic instructions for operating your equipment. The steps can vary by

brand and model. Refer to the manual supplied with your equipment for details specific to your

model. Sony product manuals and documentation can found on the Sony eSupport web site. If

you have questions about a non-Sony device, please contact the manufacturer for information.

You can now surf the web with Sony Internet TV products. If you need help connecting to your

wired or wireless network, check out our Network Connection tutorial.

We recommend this hookup to view cable or satellite service and BDs or DVDs on your TV.

Your TV must have a composite video or an S-video input to connect the DVD player to your

TV.

(1) Coaxial cable

(1) Composite A/V cable

(1) S-Video cable

(1) Composite audio cable

1. Connect the coaxial cable from the wall to the RF IN jack on the set-top box.

Note: If your satellite service does not include local channels, you may want to connect an

antenna to the TV IN jack on your satellite receiver. Refer to the operating instructions for specific

information on switching between satellite and local broadcasts.

a. RF OUT jack on the set-top box

b. RF IN jack on the TV

Notes:

Be sure to match the colors of the cable connectors with the colors of the jacks.

If your TV and DVD / BD player both have S-Video jacks, use this connection instead of

the yellow composite cable. The S-Video connection provides a higher quality video

image. Connect the red and white audio cables for the sound.

1. Turn on the TV and the set-top box.

2. Tune the TV to the correct channel for receiving the signal from the set-top box (usually

If there is picture and sound on the TV, you have connected the set-top box correctly.
