If the new IEEE 1394 device is also connected using analog inputs, you will need to define the device type. Select the type of device, such as a VCR. Once the device type is selected, then the Device screen is displayed so the manufacturer can be selected. If the manufacturer

is listed, then you may be able to control this device while it is operating as an analog VCR. For example, if the IEEE 1394 device you have added is a Mitsubishi DVCR, and you have selected an analog connection as a second connection, then you will select Mitsubishi for the manufacturer. If the manufacturer is not listed, select “Other” and use the Learn screens.

Be sure to place an IR Emitter in front of the remote control sensor, just as you have done for other NetCommand® devices. It is necessary to use the IR Emitter only when the DVCR is being used as an S-VHS or VHS VCR. When the DVCR is playing or recording digital signals in D-VHS, the TV will control the VCR through the IEEE 1394 cable.

Select the TV input that you used when you connected the video or S-Video cables. Select the input you used when you connected the stereo audio cables, either TV or A/V Receiver . The TV will learn the input names for the TV Input and A/V Receiver Input selections. If your

A/V Receiver has other inputs than those listed in the menu, those other inputs are not available for NetCommand.

The playback and record control of some DV camcorders may still operate by the IEEE 1394 cable automatically, even though you must use the video or S-video cable for the picture. In this case, when you select the camcorder, be sure to select analog (not digital) from the pop up when a camcorder is selected from the Device Selection menu. Then the picture is shown via the analog connection but control is from IEEE 1394.

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.
