Notes:

(1)Computer signals which can be input are those with a horizontal scanning frequency of 15.6 to 110 kHz and vertical scanning frequency of 48 to 120 Hz. (However, the image will not be displayed properly if the signals exceed 1,200 lines.)

(2)The display resolution is a maximum of 768 768 dots (TH-42PHW5) / 1,024 768 dots (TH-50PHW5) when the aspect mode is set to “4:3”, and 1,024 768 dots (TH-42PHW5) / 1,366 768 dots (TH-50PHW5) when the aspect mode is set to “16:9”. 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)There is no need to use an adapter for computers with DOS/V compatible D-sub 15P terminal.

(6)The computer shown in the illustration is for example purposes only.

(7)Additional equipment and cables shown are not supplied with this set.

(8)Do not set the horizontal and vertical scanning frequencies for PC signals which are above or below the specified frequency range.
