VGA/ Computer Connection
22
As the TV set is equipped with a VGA interfa-
ce, a computer image in VGA mode (640x480
dots/ 60 Hz) can be shown as a full-screen
image.
To do this, you will require a monitor cable
with 2 x Sub-D 15-pin plugs, in order to
connect the monitor output of the graphics
card with the VGA input of the TV set.
Before the connection is made, you will have
to set the PC to the required resolution
(640x480 pixels) as well as picture frequency.
If you are using Windows 95/98, you will
need to follow the steps: Start > Settings >
System Settings> Display> Settings under
Monitor. The picture frequency can be set to
60 Hz under the option "Further Options".
The required procedure may vary slightly
according to the operating system.
➜Connect the monitor output socket of the PC with
the VGA input socket of the TV set.
Both components are now ready for use.
➜Use the EXT key and press repeatedly until VGA
is selected for the screen display.
➜Use the RADIO/TV, Programme, EXT or the
numeric keys to return to the TV picture.
If you want to listen to PC sound via the TV
set, you can use an appropriate connection
cable with adapters to connect the output
from the sound card of the PC to the
SCART1 socket of the TV set.
In order for the sound transmitted via this
connection to be audible via the TV loudspea-
kers, the VGA mode must be selected from a
programme slot in which a TV programme is
also stored.
➜Use the Volume keys to adjust the volume.
➜Use the Sound Mute key to switch the sound off
(mute).
If your TV set is fitted with a satellite module,
you can listen to (analogue) satellite radio
while you are working at your PC. In this
case, you will have to go to the desired satel-
lite radio programme slot, and switch into
VGA mode from there, using the EXT key.
If, in addition to a satellite module, your TV
set is also fitted with an ADR module, you
can listen to the sound of an ADR station by
switching into VGA mode from an ADR pro-
gramme slot.
These settings are necessary only when you
are installing the combination of PC and TV
set for the first time.
Hint: It is helpful to display an empty Excel work-
sheet in order to assist in making the
settings.
General procedure:
➜Press the MENU key while you are in VGA mode
to display the menu VGA Settings.
➜Use the Programme keys to mark the required
menu items, use the Volume keys to adjust the
values.
➜Use the OK key to store the selected values in
memory.
