USING THE SETUP CONTROLS

FORMATS

The Formats control is very useful when setting up reception for High

Definition, Standard Definition, and NTSC signals. The Comp Color Type function allows you to automatically change tint and color coordinate for DTV programs. Use the HDTV (High Definition Television) setting for a High Vision Signal (Y-PbPr) from an HDTV set-top box. Use the SDTV/DVD setting for Standard Definition Television or Digital Video Disc (Y-CbCr) such as a digital video disc player.

JACK DESCRIPTIONS

Your TV’s Rear Panel jacks allow the connection of a variety of accessory devices (“compo- nents”). This section explains how you may use the

jacks.

S-VIDEO Inputs 1 and 2

AV 1 and AV 2 provide S-VIDEO (Super Video) jacks for connecting equipment with S-VIDEO output capability.

Component: Y-PbPr Inputs

AV 3 and AV 4 provide Y-PbPr jacks for connecting equipment with Component Video capability.

Devices such as DVD players or set-top boxes can be connected to these jacks. You may use standard

video signal for AV 3 and AV 4.

NOTES:

•Your component inputs may be labeled Y, B-Y, and R-Y. In this case, connect the components B-Y output to the TV’s Pb input and the components R-Y output to the TV’s Pr input.

•Your component outputs may be labeled Y-CbCr. In this case, connect the component output to the TV’s Pb input and the component Cr output to the TV’s Pr input.

•It may be necessary to adjust Tint to obtain optimum picture quality when using the Y-PbPr inputs.

•To ensure no copyright infringement, the MONITOR OUT output will be abnormal when using the Y-PbPr jacks.

•When using the Y-PbPr jacks, the TV will automatically change to Split PIP mode. When you have Picture-in-Picture on and are viewing a Y-PbPr input, only Split mode is possible.

•AV 3 and AV 4 (Y/VIDEO) can be used for standard video input.

Antenna Input/Output

The remote control allows you to switch between two separate 75-ohm RF antenna inputs, ANT A and ANT B. The ANT A input can be displayed as a main picture or subpicture. ANT B can be displayed only as a main picture. (ANT B cannot be displayed as a subpicture.) The antenna output labeled “TO CONVERTER” allows the ANT A connection to pass directly to a different source such as a cable box only when ANT B is displayed as the main picture.

AUDIO TO HI-FI Output

These jacks provide variable audio output to a separate stereo amplifier. With this connection, the audio to the stereo can be controlled by the television’s main volume.

MONITOR OUT

These jacks provide fixed audio and video signals for recording. Use the S-VIDEO Output for high-quality video output. NOTE: S-VIDEO Output may be used for recording only when the input is of S-VIDEO type.

Audio/Video Inputs 1, 2, 3, and 4

The SOURCE button or your remote will step through each video source and antenna source input each time it is pressed. Use the audio and video inputs to connect accessory devices—VCRs, camcorders, laserdisc players, DVD players and the like. (If you have mono sound, insert the audio cable into the left audio jack.) NOTE: You may use VIDEO or S-VIDEO inputs to connect AV 1 and AV 2, but only one of these inputs may be used at a time.
