Cable with a Cable Box that Descrambles Some (But Not All) Channels
To complete this connection you will need a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four coaxial
cables (which you can buy from your Samsung dealer or any electronics store).
Find and disconnect the cable that is
connected to the ANTENNA IN terminal
of your Cable box. This terminal might
be labeled “ANT IN”, “VHF IN” or
simply, “IN”. Connect this cable to a
two-way splitter.
1
Connect a coaxial cable between an
OUT terminal of the splitter and the
IN terminal of the Cable box.
2
Connect a coaxial cable between the
ANTENNA OUT terminal of the
Cable box and the B-IN terminal
of the RF (A/B) switch.
3
Connect a coaxial cable between the
other OUT terminal of the Cable box
and the A-IN terminal of the RF (A/B)
switch.
4
Connect the last coaxial cable between
the OUT terminal of the RF (A/B)
switch and the ANT 1 IN (CABLE IN)
on the TV.
5
After you've made this connection, set the A/B switch to the “A” position for normal viewing.
Set the A/B switch to the “B” position to view scrambled channels. (When you set the A/B switch to
“B”, you will need to tune your Set-Top Box to the Cable box's output channel, which is usually
channel 3 or 4.)

Memorizing the Channels
Your TV can memorize and store all of the available channels for both “off-air” (antenna) and cable
channels. After the available channels are memorized, use the CH
and CH
buttons to scan
through the channels. This eliminates the need to change channels by entering the channel digits.
There are three steps for memorizing channels: selecting a broadcast source, memorizing the
channels (automatic) and adding and deleting channels (manual).
Selecting a broadcast source
Before your television can begin memorizing the available channels, you must specify the type of
signal source that is connected to the TV (i.e., an antenna or a cable system).
