Example of input signal source
Videogame
Connect the composite signal terminal on the TV to the
output of AV equipment through composite cable (RCA
connector) as illustrated
Note:
Composite video is the most common type of signal used, but is also the lowest in picture quality. Many sources
have outputs that are limited to Composite video, such as some VCR’s and camcorders. Others, such as Laser
Disc players, actually produce slightly better results when using Composite video.
S-VIDEO Signal Connection
Example of input signal source
DVD Player
Note:
S-Video is the second-best type of signal that can be used, but is MUCH better than Composite video. Using
such sources as satellite receivers, high-quality VCRs and DVD players (with no Component output) will
produce a MUCH cleaner and sharper signal.
Connect S-video terminal on the TV to the signal output of
AV equipment through S-video cable as illustrated

User’s manual
t
Note:
1. Component video is the best type of signal that can be used. The most common sources that use
Component outputs are DVD players, and it is highly recommended that Component be used when
possible. Component video goes one step beyond S-Video in picture quality. All HDTV signals must be
input into this port. It may also be used for other high-resolution signals such as progressive DVD
players or computers.
2. Connect the output of a progressive DVD Player to Component Input (Y Pb Pr).
3. Connect the output of a standard DVD Player to the Component Input (Y Cb Cr).
4. We can support 480p, 720p and 1080i HDTV signal.
How to connect the PC Input Terminals
RGB signal (min D-SUB 15 pin) connection
Example of input signal source

Set Up V-CHIP
SETTING V-CHIP
This function allows TV programs to be restricted and TV usage to be controlled based on FCC data. It
prevents children from watching violent or sexual scenes that may be harmful.
Restriction of TV programs includes two ratings that contain information about the program: the MPAA rating
and the TV Parental Guidelines. The MPAA rating is restricted by age. TV Parental Guidelines are restricted by
age and content.
Since a TV program may use either the MPAA rating or the TV Guidelines, both should be adjusted for
complete control.
