R AUDIO provides right audio connection and connector is usually red.

DVI-HDTV provides a digital video connection from a video source to the TV.

RECORD OUTPUT Connect a VCR or DVD-recorder to record mainly digital (or analog) programs from Antenna A or B and inputs (excluding DVI-HDTV and some component video formats) while TV is turned on. You must leave TV on same channel you are recording.

VIDEO provides composite video connection and connector is usually yellow.

AUDIO L provides left audio connection and connector is usually white.

AUDIO R provides right audio connection and connector is usually red.

Notes: When recording from this output, remember to tune to the channel you are recording.

If an unusual pattern appears when you connect your VCR input to the RECORD OUTPUT, playing a tape or switching to the VCR’s tuner removes the pattern.

DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT Use a digital optical cable (or SPDIF cable) to connect your TV to a compatible Dolby Digital or PCM receiver or decoder. Dolby Digital offers theatre-quality sound (six audio channels). Use the Digital Audio Out screen in the Audio menu to select Auto Select or PCM as the output for this jack.

ETHERNET Connect a router, cable modem, or Digital Subscriber Line to the TV using an Ethernet cable (CAT 5). Do not connect a telephone cable because of risk of fire or shock. A green light on the jack means that an active network has been detected. An orange light means the data is either being sent or received.

DTVLink Use either or both connectors to connect compatible DTVLink (IEEE- 1394) components but don’t loop the components together. When connecting several components, use a hub or component-to component method. Be sure to connect the fastest of the 1394 components closer to the connection point of the TV and the slower components furthest away. Details on page 16.

ANTENNA A INPUT / ANTENNA B INPUTs Used to connect an off-air antenna and/or cable TV signal to the TV. If you have both cable and air, connect cable to ANTENNA A and off-air to ANTENNA B. If you have air only, connect it to ANTENNA A. These inputs are also used to receive programming and connect older components.

G-LINKConnect the G-LINK cable for VCR one touch recording and/or cable box control with GUIDE Plus+ system.

HDLP61 specifications

The RCA HDLP61 is a high-definition rear-projection television that was introduced in the early 2000s, capturing the attention of consumers seeking a balance between performance and affordability in large screen televisions. With its sleek design and impressive specifications, the HDLP61 quickly became a popular choice for home entertainment.

One of the primary features of the RCA HDLP61 is its substantial 61-inch screen, which allows for an immersive viewing experience. The television utilizes DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology, a key aspect that contributes to its high-quality picture display. DLP technology relies on a digital micromirror device (DMD) to reflect light and create images, which results in vibrant colors and sharp details. This technology also minimizes the risk of image burn-in that can be a concern with other display types such as CRT and plasma.

The HDLP61 supports a native resolution of 720p, providing clear and crisp images that enhance the viewing of high-definition content. Additionally, it is compatible with 1080p signals, making it a flexible choice for various types of media sources, including cable, satellite, and Blu-ray players. The television also features a 16:9 aspect ratio, which aligns perfectly with modern high-definition content.

In terms of connectivity, the RCA HDLP61 is equipped with multiple input options, including HDMI, component, and S-Video ports, allowing users to connect various devices such as gaming consoles, DVD players, and streaming devices with ease. This versatility ensures that users can enjoy a wide range of entertainment options on the large screen.

Another notable characteristic of the HDLP61 is its built-in audio system, which includes speakers that deliver decent sound quality, complementing the visual experience. However, audiophiles may opt to connect external sound systems for a more robust audio experience.

The RCA HDLP61 is also designed with user-friendly controls and features, including an intuitive on-screen menu that makes navigating settings a breeze. The television also includes features such as adjustable brightness, contrast, and color settings, allowing users to customize their viewing experience according to personal preference.

Overall, the RCA HDLP61 stands out in the realm of rear-projection televisions because of its combination of advanced DLP technology, vast connectivity options, and user-friendly design. It continues to be remembered as a budget-friendly option that delivered good performance during its time in the consumer electronics market.
