FEATURES

Large-screen, high-definition LCD panel

The 32-inch color LCD panel with a resolution of 1366(H) X 768(V) pixels, creates a high-definition, large-screen (aspect ratio:16:9) and low-p rofile fl at displ ay. Free from elec tromagneti c interferences from geomagnetic sources and ambient power lines, the panel produces high-quality display images free from color misconvergence and display distortion.

High Performance Digital Processor

A wide range of input signals can be handed, including composite, component, and HDMI. High Definition Digital Processor creates the fine-textured image with dynamic contrast. In addition, it correspond s to a broad arra y of person al comp uter signals, from 640 x 400 and 640 x 480 VGA to 1600 x 1200 UXGA. (Analog Input)

Easy-to-use remote control and on screen display system

The remote control included eases the work of setting display controls. Further, the on-screen display system, displays the status of signal reception and display control settings in an easyto-view fashion.

Power saving system

The International ENERGY STAR® power saver feature saves power consumption automatically when input signals are not available. When connected to a VESA DPMS-compliant PC, the monitor cuts its power consumption while it is idle.

Connecting to an Audio Visual Device

• Two composite/S terminals*1, three composite terminals*2, two component terminal s*2 and a HDMI termi nal have been added. A

composite video output terminal is also provided as a moni t or i ng output.

A composite/S terminal = A side input.

If two composite terminal and two component termi nal are used at the same time, the com ponent terminal would gov er n.

• A wide range of devices can also be connected besides personal computers.

• A RGB input is possible to swi tch to com ponent signals from the Menu screen.

[An example of connecting audio visual devices]

• If a component input terminal and a composite input terminal of AV1 and A V2 connect to the monitor at the same time, the component input would govern.

• If a video equipment with an S video output terminal is used , cabl ing by the S video cable is recomm ended to provide finer vid eo quality. (If an S video input terminal and a vi deo input terminal of AV3 or AV5 (side input) connect to the monitor at the sam e tim e, S vi de o in put would govern.)

• If the OUTPUT (Monitor) terminal is connected to an external monitor with a 75 Ohm terminal, it is possible to view the same image as on the main unit. But it is possible to monitor only the composit e vi de o si gnal from AV1 ~ AV5 input or the S video sign al from AV3 and AV5 that is displayed on the scre en at the time.

• Secure connecting c abl es to the stand w ith the provided clamps.

HDIM*

• HDMI (High-Definiti on Mu lti m edi a Interface) is a digital interface base d on D VI (Digital Visual Interface), which is an ad ded function for audio visual equipment.

- It does not have degradation by transmiss io n si nc e i t is digi tal.

- With only one cab le , it is possible to transmit both pict ur e signals and audio signals.

• In case of using analog au di o when connecting with DVI -HDMI transformation connector, use analog audio terminal for AV1 input.

Precautions when connecting the antenna

• Please use a coaxial cable which is free from interference to connect the antenna. Avoid using a parallel flat feeder wire as interference may occur, causing reception to be uns table and stripe noise to appear on t he screen.

• Avoid using indoor anten na as th is may be affected by interference. Pl ease use CATV net or outdoor antenna.

• Keep the power cor d as f ar away from the antenna wire as possible.

• For safety, install an external antenna conforming t o AS1 417.1 (applicable for Australia only)

If there are noise appearance in the picture of VHF-Low band channel, please use the double-shielded cable (not provided) for RF LEADS to reduce the noise.

INSTALLATION INSTR UCTIONS (continued)

Connecting to a PC

(1) Make sure that the display signal of the personal computer to be used is compatible with the specifications of this

device.

• See "PRODUCT SPECIFICATIONS" concerning the specifications of this device. ~

(2) Make sure that the power switch of the personal computer is turned off. (3) Connect the signal input terminal (RGB 1 or RGB 2) on the rear panel of this device to the display signal output terminal

of the personal computer.

• Use a cable that fits the input ter m in al of this devi ce and the output terminal of th e per sonal computer.

• Depending on the type of personal computer being connected, the use of an optional conversion adapter or the adapter provided with the personal computer may be necessary in some cas es. For deta ils, re fe r to t he instruction manual of the personal computer or ask the personal computer manufacturer or your local retail dealer.
