101. Television Overview

TV Back Panel, continued

A/V receiver or stereo system, this is the only audio connection needed between it and the TV.

5.INPUT 1, 2 (Audio and Video)

Input 1 and 2 can be used to connect a VCR, Super VHS (S-VHS) VCR, DVD player, standard satellite receiver, or other A/V device to the TV. Each TV INPUT group consists of jacks for composite video, S-Video, and analog stereo audio. Note that when you connect to the S-video jack, the composite video jack is auto- matically disabled. INPUT 3 is a third set of composite video and stereo audio jacks located on the side of the TV for convenience.

6. HDMI Inputs

The HDMI™ 1.3 (High Definition Multimedia Interface) supports uncompressed standard and high-definition digital video formats and PCM digital stereo audio format.

Use the HDMI inputs to connect to CEA-861 HDMI com- pliant devices such as a high-definition receiver or DVD player. These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p video formats, plus PCM digital stereo audio.

Mitsubishi recommends you use category 2 HDMI cables to connect HDMI 1.3 source devices. High-speed cat- egory 2 cables bring you the full benefits of Deep Color and x.v.Color.

These inputs can also accept digital DVI video signals. To connect a DVI source, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or cable plus analog audio cables. Connect the analog audio cables to PC/DVI AUDIO INPUT on the back of the TV to receive left and right stereo audio from your PC or DVI device.

The TV’s HDMI inputs are compatible with many DVI-D and HDMI computer video signals. See chapter 2, “TV Setup” and Appendix B for additional information on PC compatibility.

These inputs are HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) compliant.

These inputs arecertified for proper interop- erability with other products certified by Simplay™.

7. DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT

This output sends Dolby Digital or PCM digital audio to your digital A/V surround sound receiver. Analog audio from analog channels and devices is converted by the TV to PCM digital audio. If you have a digital A/V receiver, in most cases this is the only audio connection needed between the TV and your A/V receiver.

HDMI Cable Categories

HDMI cables are available as Category 1 and Category 2 versions.

•Category 2 Cables. Newer, HDMI 1.3-com- pliant DVD players, video games, and set-top boxes require Category 2 cables. Use cat- egory 2 cables for these high-speed HD signals carrying extended color encodings (i.e., 30 or more bits, also called Deep Color). Category 2 cables are also suitable for standard HDTV signals.

•Category 1 Cables. Unmarked cables are category 1 cables and are suitable for standard HDTV signals, including 1080p signals.

8.IR Emitter NetCommand®

IR Emitters connected to this jack are used by the TV’s NetCommand system to control external IR remote controlled analog devices such as cable boxes, VCRs, DVDs, satellite receivers and audio receivers.

9. RS-232 Port

10. CableCARD Slot

Insert the CableCARD™ access card into the slot located behind the CableCARD access door. When inserting the card, ensure that the top of the card faces in the direction indicated by CARD TOP.

If your cable company is not currently offering CableCARD access cards, use the cable box provided and authorized by your local cable company to view scrambled channels.

When using a CableCARD, make sure the incoming Cable-TV cable is connected to the TV’s ANT1/MAIN jack on the back of the TV (Back Panel #2).

This digital television is capable of receiving analog basic, digital basic and digital premium cable television programming by direct connection to a cable system providing such programming. A security card provided by your cable operator is required to view encrypted digital programming. Certain advanced and interactive digital cable services such as video-on-demand, a cable operator’s enhanced program guide and data-enhanced television services may require the use of a set-top box.
