Troubleshooting
If the set-top does not perform as expected, the following tips may help. If you need
further assistance, contact your service provider.
No Picture
• Verify that the power to your TV is turned on and the Link light is lit.
• If the set-top is plugged into a wall switch, verify that the switch is in the ON position.
• Verify that all cables are properly connected.
• If your system includes a VCR or stereo, verify that you have properly connected
them to the set-top.
• Verify the proper input selection to the home theater receiver or TV.
• Verify that the set-top is set to the proper screen type and resolution.
• If you are using coaxial cable to connect to your TV, verify that the TV is tuned to the
correct channel.
No Color or Incorrect Color
• Verify that the current TV program is broadcast in color.
• Adjust the TV color controls.
• If you are using a component video connection (YPbPr), check that all connectors
are completely and properly plugged into the set-top and TV.
• If you are using a component video connection (YPbPr) and your HDTV only has RGB
or RGB-HV connectors, you must use an adapter. Contact your service provider for
more information.
No Sound
• If your setup includes a VCR or stereo, verify that you have properly connected
them to the set-top.
• Verify that the volume is turned up.
• Verify that the mute function is not on.
• Verify the proper input selection to the home theater receiver or TV.
• If you are using coaxial cable to connect to your TV, verify that the TV is tuned to the
correct channel.
Avoiding Screen Burn-In
Images such as letterbox bars or side bars, bright closed-captioning backgrounds, station
logos, or any other stationary images may cause the display in your HDTV to age
unevenly; this is known as screen burn-in. Refer to the user’s guide that came with
your HDTV for more information.
CAUTION:
Avoid screen burn-in. Do not display the same fi xed images on your HDTV
screen for extended periods of time.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Is Digital Television?
Digital television (DTV) is a huge leap forward in television technology compared
to analog television that has been widely available since the 1940s. DTV is delivered
and displayed using digital encoding, similar to the way a PC operates. By using digital
technology, there is no variation in picture and sound quality from the origination
point until it is displayed on your television. You always receive a high-quality picture
without the wavy lines or static you might sometimes get from a weak analog signal.
Another feature of digital television is digital surround sound using Dolby
technology, which is the same technology used to produce the sound you hear in
movie theaters.
What Is Standard-Defi nition Television?
Standard-defi nition television (SDTV) is basic digital television programming delivered
by your service provider. Typically, the SDTV screen is the same, nearly square
shape as an analog television screen. Digital images on an SDTV set are crisp and
clear—noticeably better than on a standard analog television set using an antenna to
receive over-the-air signals.
What Is High-Defi nition Television?
High-defi nition television (HDTV) is a completely new way to send and receive
television broadcast signals. HDTV images are made up of pixels that are much
smaller and closer together than those used in standard analog television, and there
are millions of them. Thus, HDTV can display fi ve to six times the detail of analog
television to deliver picture quality that is much more realistic, dimensional, and
precise. SDTV programs can be viewed on an HDTV.
™
Digital
Are Local TV Stations or Other Programmers Broadcasting
in HDTV?
Many local TV stations and programmers are transmitting digital signals. However,
transmitting a digital signal does not mean transmitting an HDTV signal. Some
stations are using the new bandwidth to broadcast several standard-defi nition
channels. Most stations and programmers, once they begin broadcasting in digital,
are offering HD content from their parent network (for example, CBS, ABC, NBC,
CW, UPN, and PBS). Contact your service provider for more information.
Why Aren’t All the Shows I Watch in High-Defi nition?
A high-defi nition program must originate in HD format and be broadcast in HD format.
Having an HDTV system does not mean that everything you watch will be viewed in
high-defi nition. Getting the signal from a digital source also does not mean it is
high-defi nition.
Why Are Some HDTVs 4:3 Aspect Ratio and Others 16:9?
The aspect ratios differ because television manufacturers build both standard-screen
and wide-screen HDTVs to appeal to consumer viewing preferences. The two aspect
ratios are as follows:
• On standard-screen (4:3) HDTVs, the programming is displayed in letterbox format
in the middle of the screen. There are bars surrounding the picture.
• On wide-screen (16:9) HDTVs, the programming is displayed on the full screen.

Picture Formats
What Is the Difference Between a Standard-Screen and a
Wide-Screen HDTV?
The type of screen your HDTV has (wide-screen or standard-screen) determines how
the set-top displays programs on the screen. The picture format for an HDTV is a
combination of aspect ratio and screen resolution and is different for standard-screen
and wide-screen HDTVs.
What Is Aspect Ratio?
An aspect ratio is the ratio of the width to the height of the TV screen. The aspect
ratios differ because the television industry manufactures both standard-screen and
wide-screen HDTVs to appeal to consumer viewing preferences.
What Is the Screen Resolution?
The screen resolution indicates the amount of detail that the picture displays.
Resolution is identifi ed by the number of display lines on the screen. The techniques
that an HDTV uses to “paint” the picture on the screen are referred to as progressive
and interlaced.
With the progressive method, every pixel on the screen is refreshed simultaneously.
The interlace method involves refreshing pixels in alternation — fi rst the odd lines
and then the even lines.
For advance setup, select the scan modes that your TV can support. Refer to your
HDTV user’s guide to choose the proper scan rates (480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i) for
your setup.
For example, a resolution of 1080i indicates that the screen shows 1080 lines in
an interlaced display, and 720p indicates that the screens shows 720 lines in a
progressive display.
Note: The screen resolution is sometimes referred to as the scan rate. The terms are
interchangeable.
A standard-screen HDTV has a 4x3
aspect ratio. The screen is 4 units
wide for every 3 units tall.

A screen resolution of 480i fi lls the

A wide-screen HDTV is one-third wider than
a standard-screen HDTV . The screen is 16
units wide for every 9 units tall.

A screen resolution of 720p or 1080i fi lls the
