Except for SYSTEM RESET and TIMER, all of the buttons on the Front Control Panel (highlighted in gray) are duplicated on the remote control. The top row of labels show the control functions when there are no TV menus displayed on the screen. The bottom row of labels show the control functions when the TV menus are displayed on the screen or when a special function has been activated. See Remote Control Overview page 29, for further details on the functions of these buttons. TIMER is also accessible through the menu screens. Pressing MENU on the front panel will display the TV menu.

SYSTEM RESET

If the TV will not respond to either the remote control or the front panel controls and/or will not power Off, press the SYSTEM RESET button with a pointed item like the end point of a paperclip. The TV will turn Off and the TIMER light will flash quickly for about one minute. When the TIMER light stops flashing, you may turn on the TV again. Changes you made the last time the TV was On before you used the SYSTEM RESET button may be lost, however, the changes you made previously are not lost.

POWER/TIMER Indicator

The green light is a multi-function indicator. This light will flash rapidly for about one minute each time the TV is plugged into the wall electrical outlet, when power is restored after a power failure, or using the SYSTEM RESET button. Do not attempt to turn on the TV again during this period. Wait for the flashing to stop and the light to turn off, before attempting to turn the TV on. While the TV is powered on, the light illuminates steadily. If the TV has been programmed to turn on automatically using the Timer feature, this light will flash slowly when the TV is powered off.

A/V RESET

There may be times when you wish to reset the A/V (Audio and Video) settings back to the factory defaults. To do this for an individual setting, use the Audio

or Video remote control button. To return all of the settings at once, press GUIDE and FORMAT on the front panel at the same time, or use the A/V Memory Reset selection on the AudioVideo menu (page 68).

INPUT 3

This input can be used for convenient connection of a camcorder or other video device to the TV. 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.

IEEE 1394 (WS-55615, WS-55615A, WS-65615, WS-65615A, WS-73615 only)

This IEEE 1394 (FireWire®) input/output allows for temporary connection of IEEE 1394 devices such as MPEG 2 camcorders or compatible hard disc drives to the front of the TV. This connection works the same way as the two rear IEEE 1394 connections.

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.
