How to connect the PC Input Terminals
Notes:
(1) Computer signals which can be input are those with a horizontal scanning frequency of 15.5 to 110 kHz and vertical
scanning frequency of 48 to 120 Hz. (However, signals cannot be displayed if signals exceeding 1200 lines will not
be displayed properly.)
(2) The display resolution is a maximum of 1024 × 768 dots when the aspect mode is set to NORMAL, and 1366 × 768
dots when the aspect mode is set to FULL. If the display resolution exceeds these maximums, it may not be
possible to show fine detail with sufficient clarity.
(3) The PC input terminals are DDC1/2B-compatible. If the computer being connected is not DDC1/2B-compatible, you
will need to make setting changes to the computer at the time of connection.
(4) Some PC models cannot be connected to the set.
(5) An adapter is required to use the PC cable (D-sub 15P) to connect a Macintosh computer to the set.
(6) There is no need to use an adapter for computers with DOS/V compatible D-sub 15P terminal.
(7) The computer shown in the illustration is for example purposes only.
(8) Additional equipment and cables shown are not supplied with this set.
(9) Do not set the horizontal and vertical scanning frequencies for PC signals which are above or below the specified
frequency range.
