Before installing
a plasma TV it is wise to plan where the TV set,
its accessories and cables will be located
before you make the purchase. It could be as
simple as clearing the space needed for
installation, to sitting down and drawing out in
detail exactly where and how your plasma TV will
be installed and hooked up.
Planning for placement of the plasma TV will
include the decision of whether or not the
Plasma TV screen should be mounted on a good
supporting wall, or if the TV screen should be
placed on a well-built stand.
Either you should pay a professional to install
your plasma TV, or you can install it yourself.
Regardless of who does the installation, many
things will need attention for a proper hook up
of a plasma TV. Taking time now to plan the
installation and hook up of a plasma TV will
save you time and cut down on problems and
expense later.
One of the best tips for hooking up your plasma
TV can be found in your owner's manual, take
time to read it for helpful advice and
instructions of a plasma TV hook up.
When considering cable connections use the
highest quality that is within your TV budget.
Use a length of cable that is required for
proper connection. Using a cable that is too
long can cause problems with receiving a good
signal and display while damaging your plasma TV
system components.
Never stretch a short cable; this can cause
problems with the audio and video
interconnections. Instead, add 2 feet of excess
cable for any necessary adjustments. This also
prevents the possibility of accidentally pulling
a cable loose or unnecessarily stretching the
cable.
Since power cords can cause a considerable
amount of interference to receiving a broadcast
signal, it is best to keep signal cables away
from power cables.
Always remember to situate any excess cable you
may have into a pattern of a figure eight or in
an S pattern. This will cut down on interference
of electromagnetic energy.
Be sure to label ahead of time any cables
extending from other TV components. This helps
you make a quicker and easier hook up between
your accessories.
As with any other high quality component, having
superior surge protectors for your home
entertainment unit, and their accessories is
always a good invest of a plasma TV budget at
work.
Electrical outlets should be close enough for
use with out the use of extension cords, which
can become a fire hazard. Be sure that there are
enough electrical outlets close by to suit your
plasma TV hook up needs.
Remember to register your plasma TV warranty and
utilize any rebates or special money saving
offers. In addition, be sure to keep all paper
work, boxes and packing material in case a unit
may needs to be sent in for repairs or
replacement. Systems are much safer to ship in
their original boxes.
