PIP (Picture-in-Picture) Operation

The PIP (Picture-In-Picture) feature lets you display a second, smaller analog (NTSC format) picture on top of the main analog picture. The main and PIP channels must be from the same antenna A or B; you cannot have the main picture from Antenna A and the PIP picture from Antenna B. However, inputs can use PIP regardless if Antenna A or B is used for the main or PIP picture. You will only be able to use the PIP window and main picture with analog channels.

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.

PIP Brings up the PIP window. Press PIP again to remove the window.

Arrows 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. To determine whether you are controlling the PIP or the main picture, look at the channel banner as you change channels. The triangular indicator is beside the channel number for the picture you’re controlling with channel up/down, number buttons, etc.
