MENUS AND FEATURES

PIP (PICTURE-IN-PICTURE) OPERATION

The PIP (picture-in-picture) feature lets you display a second, smaller picture on top of the main picture.

Your monitor is equipped with a single tuner that tunes to cable or off- air television signals. The PIP feature on your monitor requires a second video source, like a VCR or satellite receiver to supply the second picture to the screen. The PIP feature also requires connecting the second video source to the monitor with audio/video cables.

PIP BUTTONS

There are four remote buttons that control the way the PIP window works:

PIP Brings up the PIP window. Press PIP again to remove the window. When PIP Caption Display – Alternate with PIP – has been selected, will display captioning in the PIP window.

MOVE buttons Let you move the PIP window to different areas of the screen.

SWAP Switches, or “swaps,” the video from the PIP window with the main picture.

CH CTRL (Channel Control) Lets you switch channel control between the PIP window and the main picture.

USING THE PIP FEATURE

While you may use PIP in different ways, this basic PIP scenario should get you started. While watching the TV, follow these steps to use your VCR to supply the picture for PIP.

1.Press the PIP button on the remote. The PIP window appears on the screen.

2.Turn on the VCR.

3.Press the TV button, then press WHO•INPUT until you see the VCR signal displayed in the PIP window. The PIP window should display the channel that you have the VCR tuned to.

4.At this point, in order to change the program in the PIP window, you need to change the channel on the VCR because that is the signal source for the PIP picture.

5.Use the channel up and down buttons and the other PIP buttons, MOVE, SWAP and CH CTRL to adjust the two pictures.

A typical use of SWAP is to scan through channels in the PIP window, and when you find a channel you like, press SWAP to display that channel in the main picture, sending the current channel to the PIP window.

You must change the mode between the TV and VCR after every SWAP.
