NOTE

About the MONITOR OUT terminals

The MONITOR OUT terminals cannot output the following signals:

•Video signals input from the COMPONENT VIDEO terminal •Video signals from a PC

•Digital video and audio signals from the HDMI terminals

When watching images from a VCR connected to the panel’s MONITOR OUT, select an input source (e.g., TV channel reception) on the VCR other than an external input source. Selecting an external input source may cause distorted images or noise.

Place the VCR in Standby when selecting TV programs to record using the TV Guide On Screen™ system.

Using MONITOR OUT may cause delays between the speaker and AUDIO. If this delay occurs, try muting the speakers on the Plasma Display. However, you may still experience some delay between audio and video.

The MONITOR OUT terminals cannot output any signals for networked audio or video.

If degraded picture quality is observed while viewing copy- protected VOD movies connect the Plasma Display directly to other TV sets. Do not connect through a VCR.

Connecting other audio equipment

The panel’s digital audio output terminal (optical) can output Dolby Digital signals. Using an optical digital cable, connect an AV receiver to the optical terminal on the rear of the Plasma Display. This allows high-quality audio, such as during a digital TV broadcast, to play.

If your AV receiver does not have a digital audio input terminal (optical), connect MONITOR OUT (AUDIO) on the rear of the Plasma Display to the audio input terminals on the AV receiver. This method may cause sound delays between the speakers and AUDIO. Try muting the speakers on the Plasma Display, however, you may still experience a delay between audio and video.

NOTE

When using the digital audio output terminal (optical), set according to the AV receiver’s requirements. For more information, refer to the AV receiver’s operating instructions.

NOTE

For details, refer to the audio device’s operating instructions.

The audio accompanying the images shown on the display is always output to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal.

When signals are input from the HDMI terminals, no digital or analog signals are output from the DIGITAL OUT terminal.

Input signals from the Home Media Gallery may cause audio delays between the speakers and OPTICAL. Try muting the speakers on the Plasma Display; however, you may still experience delays between audio and video.
