is a nationwide standard system that allows your local cable TV provider to supply you with an access card customized to your account. This card allows the TV to receive, decode and unscramble the premium digital channels included in your cable TV subscription without the use of a cable box. It also allows your cable provider to automatically update and change your subscription. See pages 15, 25, and 44 for additional CableCARD information and activation instructions.

If your cable company is not currently offering CableCARD, you will need to use an external cable box.

5. HDMI™ or DVI Devices

The HDMI™ interface supports uncompressed standard, enhanced and high definition digital video formats. This interface also supports existing digital multi-channel audio formats. The HDMI input supports both video and audio using one single cable. Use this input to connect to EIA/CEA-861 compliant devices such as a high definition receiver or DVD player. This input supports the 480i, 480p and 1080i video formats. It is not intended for use with personal computers

or devices outputting video signals with computer resolutions.

This input can also be used as a DVI connection with separate analog audio inputs (see DVI Analog Audio, below). An optional HDMI-to-DVI adaptor will be necessary to make this connection and can be purchased from your local electronics retailer. When using the optional HDMI-to-DVI adapter, the DVI analog audio inputs on your TV allow you to receive left and right audio from your DVI device.

This input is HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) compliant.

6. DVI Analog Audio

Unlike HDMI, DVI does not carry audio information on the same cable. Use these analog stereo audio inputs when using the HDMI input with a device that outputs DVI instead of HDMI.

7. Component Inputs 1-2

YPbPr(480i/480p/1080i)

These inputs can be used for the connection of devices with component video outputs, such as a DVD player, external HDTV receiver or compatible video game system. Please see Appendix B for signal compatibility.

8. IR Output-NetCommand®

Two jacks are provided for connecting IR emitters. IR Emitters connected to these jacks are used by the TV’s NetCommand system to control external analog devices such as VCRs, DVDs, cable boxes, satellite and audio receivers.

9.Monitor Output (Audio/Video 1, Audio 2)

The Monitor Output sends the TV audio and video signals from the antennas or Inputs 1-3 to an A/V Receiver or other analog A/V equipment such as a VCR. Digital channels and IEEE 1394 signals will be down converted to analog signals compatible with traditional analog VCRs. There will be no video signals from digital channels or IEEE 1394 signals that have copy restrictions. There will be no video signals from Monitor Outputs when viewing the Component 1 & 2 inputs or the HDMI input

Monitor Output Audio/Video 1 should be connected to a VCR for recording. Monitor Output Audio 2 should be connected to your A/V Receiver for home theater surround sound.

10. Inputs 1-2

These inputs can be used for the connection of a VCR, Super VHS (S-VHS) VCR, DVD player, standard satellite receiver or other A/V device to the TV. Please note that if you connect to the S-VIDEO terminal, the VIDEO terminal is deactivated. The VIDEO terminal is available when there is no S-Video connection.

11. SERVICE PORT

This input is for use by Authorized Mitsubishi Servicers only.

WS-48515, WS-55615A, WS-55615, WS-73615, WS-65515A specifications

The Mitsubishi Electronics WS series of rear-projection televisions, specifically models WS-65615, WS-65515, WS-65615A, WS-55515, and WS-65515A, represent a significant era in home entertainment technology. Known for their innovative features and exceptional image quality, these models were well-regarded for both functional performance and design.

One of the most notable characteristics of the WS series is their use of DLP (Digital Light Processing) technology. This allows for sharper images and more vibrant colors compared to traditional CRT televisions. DLP technology also reduces issues like pixelation, offering a smoother image overall. The WS-65615 and WS-65615A feature a large 65-inch screen, delivering an immersive viewing experience perfect for movie nights and gaming. Meanwhile, the WS-65515 and WS-65515A provide a slightly smaller 55-inch display, which still offers remarkable visuals without taking up as much space.

All models are equipped with a High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) input, ensuring compatibility with modern devices like Blu-ray players, gaming consoles, and streaming devices. This connectivity is crucial for those looking to enhance their entertainment systems with the latest technology. Additionally, the WS series supports various audio-video formats, giving users flexibility in how they enjoy their content.

Another key feature is the incorporation of a 3D-ready capability, making these TVs future-proof for a time when 3D content was gaining traction. This aspect attracted cinema enthusiasts who wanted to bring an enhanced experience home. The models also include a built-in digital tuner, allowing users to access over-the-air broadcasts without needing an external box.

The WS-65615 and WS-65515 models additionally boast a stylish and slim design that fits well within modern living spaces, combining aesthetics with functionality. Their lightweight construction allows for easier installation and setup.

Overall, the Mitsubishi Electronics WS-65615, WS-65515, WS-65615A, WS-55515, and WS-65515A televisions deliver a compelling mix of advanced technologies, user-friendly features, and stunning visuals. While they may be considered legacy models today, they still exemplify the quality and innovation Mitsubishi Electronics strived for in enhancing the home viewing experience.
