HOW TO USE THE PICTURE-IN-PICTURE (PIP) FEATURE

Picture-in-Picture (PIP) is the showing of two pictures on the

TV screen at the same time. (One main screen picture and one small inset picture - or PIP). For your ease and convenience this TV has two separate inputs (ANTenna A and ANTenna B) for your home’s Antenna and/or Cable TV system signal.

The ANT A input is primarily for the TV’s main screen picture. The ANT B input is provided as a second, dedicated source option for the TV’s PIP “window” and its feature operations. The signal connected to the ANT B input can be either a Split Signal Input (as described in the section on this page), or another type of external signal source (such as a satellite dish system, additional home antenna, video accessory, etc.).
