ANTENNA

Unless your Plasma Television is connected to a cable TV system or to a centralized antenna system, a good outdoor color TV antenna is recommended for best performance. However, if you are located in an exceptionally good signal area that is free from interference and multiple image ghosts, an indoor antenna may be sufficient.

LOCATION

Select an area where sunlight or bright indoor illumination will not fall directly on the picture screen. Also, be sure that the location selected allows a free flow of air to and from the perforated back cover of the set.

To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV where temperatures can become excessively hot, for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance, etc.

HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW HITACHI PLASMA TELEVISION

FIRST TIME USE

VIEWING

The major benefit of the HITACHI Plasma Television is its large viewing screen. To see this large screen at its best, test various locations in the room to find the optimum spot for viewing. The best picture is seen by sitting directly in front of the TV and about 8 to 18 feet from the screen.

During daylight hours, reflections from outside light may appear on the screen. If so, drapes or screens can be used to reduce the reflection or the TV can be located in a different section of the room.

If the TV’s audio output will be connected to a Hi-Fi system’s external speakers, the best audio performance will be obtained by placing the speakers equidistant from each side of the receiver cabinet and as close as possible to the height of the picture screen center. For best stereo separation, place the external speakers at least four feet from the side of the TV, place the surround speakers to the side or behind the viewing area. Differences in room sizes and acoustical environments will require some experimentation with speaker placement for best performance.

A buzzing sound might be heard when the plasma display monitor is turned on in a very quiet

 

plasma display monitor’s

room. This is due to the plasma panel drive circuit when it is functioning. This arching sound

is normal and it is not a malfunction.

 

 

 

2

Interference for infrared

Some infrared rays are emitted from the plasma display monitor’s panel that might affect other

 

equipment.

infrared controlling equipment.

 

 

 

3

Bright and dark spots

High-precision technology is used to manufacture the plasma display panel; But in some

 

 

cases, there are minor defects in some parts of the screen. Points that do not light, points

 

 

with brightness different from that of the periphery, points with color different from that of the

 

 

periphery, etc. Some pixels will always be on or always off. Please note that this is not a

 

 

malfunction.

 

 

 

4

Picture Image (Spectrum)

When receving still picture signals, (e.g. channel number indication or clock indication) for a

 

 

while, you can see image-like when the picture varied. This is not a defect.

 

 

 

5

Display panel surface

The plasma display panel is lighting the phosphors by the discharge of internal radiation. In

 

temperature is too high

some cases, this may cause the temperature of the panel surface to increase. Please note

 

 

that this is not a malfunction. The Plasma TV surface temperature is higher than a

 

 

Cathode-ray-tube.

 

 

 

6

Plasma Surface

The plasma panel is made from glass. Heavy shock on the front panel might damage it.

7

Transportation

When the PDP monitor is transported horizontally, the glass panel has the possibility of being

 

 

broken or increasing the picture defects. At the time of transportation, horizontal style is

 

 

prohibited. More-over, please treat the plasma panel with great care because of a precision

 

 

apparatus. Please instruct transporters so that it should be put into the packing box at the time

 

 

of shipment.(There is a possibility that breakage of the panel or defects will increase.)

 

 

Rough transportation might cause damage to the panel and pixel failure.

 

 

 

8

Image retention

The plasma monitor illuminates phosphor to display images. The phosphor has a finite

 

 

illumination life. After extended periods of illumination, the brightness of the phosphor will be

 

 

degraded to such extent that stationary images would burn-in that part of the screen as

 

 

grayed-out images. For 55” only, brightness will decrease automatically during still and slightly

 

 

moving pictures. This is not a failure. This is a special feature to avoid image retention.

 

 

Tips to prevent such image retention are:

 

 

- Do not display images having sharp brightness differences or hi-contrast images, such as

 

 

monochrome characters and graphic patterns, for long.

 

 

- Do not leave stationary images appearing for long, but try to refresh them at appropriate

 

 

intervals of time, or try to move them using screen saver function.

 

 

- Turn down the contrast and brightness controls.

 

 

 

9

Luminosity and contrast

PDP television has luminosity and low contrast compared with CRT television.

 

 

 

10

Granular spots

When a screen is seen at point-blank range, a random fine grain may be visible to a dark part.

 

 

 

11

Disturbance to video

If an apparatus (VCR, etc.) antenna line is arranged near the monitor, the image may shake,

 

apparatus

or disturbance may be received.

 

 

 

12

Lip Sync

There is some time lag betweeen the picture and the sound. You can see lip motion that is

 

 

delayed compared to the sound.

 

 

 

13

About the use

Electric discharge/luminescence characteristic of the PDP panel also changes with peripheral

 

environment of PDP

temperature. Moreover, since there is also high power consumption value, a specified

 

television (temperature)

temperature environment is required.

 

 

 

14

Caution on prolonged

Storing the plasma television for a period of more than 2 to 3 months without use might cause

 

storage

an unstable picture when the set is turned on.

 

 

 

15

Operating

Operating altitude: 800 to 1,114hPa (6,194ft to -2,484ft). Operating temperature: 41˚F to 95˚F.

 

 

 

16

Storage

Storage Altitude: 300 to 1,114hPa (31,912ft to -2,484ft). Storage temperature: 5˚F to 140˚F.

USE TIME FIRST

aAntenna Input

The remote control allows you to switch between two separate 75-Ohm RF antenna inputs, ANT A and ANT B. ANT A input can be displayed as a main picture or sub-picture. ANT B can only be displayed as a main picture (ANT B cannot be displayed as a sub-picture).

bAudio/Video Inputs 1, 2, 3 and 4

By using the INPUTS button, the CURSOR PAD, and the SELECT button of the remote control, you can select each video source. Use the audio and video inputs to connect external devices, such as VCRs, camcorders, laserdisc players, DVD players etc. (if you have mono sound, insert the audio cable into the left audio jack).

cMONITOR OUT

These jacks provide fixed audio and video signals (ANT A/B, INPUT 1~5) which are used for recording. Use the S-VIDEO Output for high quality video output. Component signal to Input 1 and 2, RGB and HDMI inputs will not have monitor output.

dOptical Out (Digital Audio)

This jack provides Digital Audio Output for your audio device that is Dolby® Digital and PCM compatible, such as an audio amplifier.

eS-VIDEO Inputs 3 and 4

Inputs 3 and 4 provide S-VIDEO (Super Video) jacks for connecting equipment with S-VIDEO output capability.

NOTES: 1. You may use VIDEO or S-VIDEO inputs to connect to INPUT 3 and 4, but only one of these inputs may be used at a time.

2. S-VIDEO output may be used for recording, only when the input is of S-VIDEO type.

fComponent: Y-PBPR Inputs

Inputs 1 and 2 provide Y-PBPR jacks for connecting equipment with this capability, such as a DVD player or Set Top Box. You may use composite video signal for INPUTS 1 and 2.

NOTES: 1. DO NOT connect composite VIDEO and S-VIDEO to Input 3, 4 or 5 at the same time. S-Video has a higher priority over video input.

2.Your component outputs may be labeled Y, B-Y, and R-Y. In this case, connect the components B-Y output to the AVC Box’s PB input and the components R-Y output to the AVC Box’s PR input.

3.Your component outputs may be labeled Y-CBCR. In this case, connect the component CB output to the AVC Box’s PB input and the component CR output to the AVC Box’s PR input.

4.It may be necessary to adjust TINT to obtain optimum picture quality when using the Y-PBPR inputs (See page 53).

5.To ensure no copyright infringement, the MONITOR OUT output will be abnormal, when using the Y-PBPR jacks, RGB and HDMI inputs.

2.The HDMI input on INPUT 1 or 2 contains the copy protection system called High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP). HDCP is a cryptographic system that encrypts video signals when using HDMI connections to prevent illegal copying of video contents.

3.HDMI is not a “NETWORK” technology. It establishes a one-way point-to-point connection for delivery of uncompressed video to a display.

4.The connected digital output device controls the HDMI interface so proper set-up of device user settings determines final video appearance.

CONNECTING EXTERNAL VIDEO SOURCES

 

CONNECTING A COMPONENT SOURCE WITH DIGITAL INTERFACE CAPABILITY TO IEEE1394 TERMINALS

 

1.

Connect the IEEE1394 cable from the output of the component with IEEE1394 capability, such as a Set-Top-Box or Digital VCR,

 

 

to the IEEE1394 input terminals shown on the AVC Center below. IEEE 1394 allows the plasma television and the external

USE

 

device to communicate with one another. When using IEEE1394 connections, you enable video and audio digital data exchange

 

between a compatible device. This connection also enables you to control basic equipment functions (such as VCR play,

 

 

TIMEFIRST

 

rewind, fast forward, stop, etc.) from your TV On-Screen Display.

2.

Press the INPUTS button on the Remote Control.

 

 

3.

Select the IEEE1394 option (see page 36).

NOTES: 1. To quickly enter IEEE1394 menu, press the AV NET button on the remote control and then select the IEEE1394 device.

2.This Plasma TV’s IEEE1394 connection is not compatible with a DV camcorder (Digital Video camcorder) and a PC.

CONNECTING AV NETWORK

FIRST TIME USE

Your Hitachi Plasma Television is equipped with an AV Network feature. This feature helps to control your external Audio/Video equipment (VCR, Set Top Box, DVD, etc.). Once this is setup, it allows your IR Mouse connector to control your equipment using your Hitachi Plasma TV Remote Control. You can use your Hitachi remote control to control the Audio/Video equipment command without the equipment’s remote control.

The Plasma Television AVC Center has 2 IR BLASTER jacks. Each IR Mouse cable can connect up to 2 external Audio/Video components. Therefore, you can connect the Plasma Television with up to four components. Please see the following example of an AV Network setup between your Hitachi Plasma Television and external Audio/Video equipment (VCR and DVD Player).

CONNECTING EXTERNAL AUDIO/VIDEO COMPONENTS TO IR BLASTER FOR AV NETWORK

1.Connect your external Audio/Video components to the AVC Center shown on pages 15~21.

2.Connect the IR Mouse cable to the IR BLASTER output of the AVC Center.

3.Place the IR mouse in front of the infrared sensor of the external components you wish to control.

TIPS ON REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS

• S-VIDEO, YPbPR, IEEE 1394 or HDMI connections are provided for high performance laserdisc players, VCRs etc. that have

 

 

this feature. Use these connections in place of the standard video connection if your device has this feature.

USE

If your device has only one audio output (mono sound), connect it to the left audio jack on the AVC Center.

• Refer to the operating guide of your other electronic equipment for additional information on connecting your hook-up cables.

 

TIME

• A single VCR can be used for VCR #1 and VCR #2, but note that a VCR cannot record its own video or line output (INPUT: 4 in

 

the example on page 25). Refer to your VCR operating guide for more information on line input-output connections.

 

 

FIRST

• Connect only 1 component (VCR, DVD player, camcorder, etc.) to each input jack.

• COMPONENT: Y-PBPR (Input 1 & 2) connections are provided for high performance components, such as DVD players and set-

 

 

top-boxes. Use these connections in place of the standard video connection if your device has this feature.

 

Your component outputs may be labeled Y, B-Y, and R-Y. In this case, connect the components B-Y output to the TV’s PB input

 

 

and the components R-Y output to the TV’s PR input.

• Your component outputs may be labeled Y-CBCR. In this case, connect the components CB output to the TV’s PB input and the components CR output to the TV’s PR input.

• It may be necessary to adjust TINT to obtain optimum picture quality when using the Y-PBPR inputs. (See page 54)

• To ensure no copyright infringement, the MONITOR OUT output will be abnormal, when using the Y-PBPR, RGB and HDMI input jacks.

• Input 1 or 2 can accept HDMI signal.

• Input 1 or 2 can accept both component and composite video signal.

• S-VIDEO monitor output may be used for recording only when the input is of S-VIDEO type.

• When using a DVI or HDMI input from a Set-Top-Box, it is recommended to use a 1080i or 720p input signal.

area of the picture will age more rapidly than the gray areas.
