Foreword

Dear customer, thank you for selecting a Metz

TV set with perfect 100 Hz technology.

We have equipped this TV set with a menu system which uses "file cards" and believe that this will provide you with a user interface that is easy to understand.

If you have any problems, you can press the "INFO" key to display a help function that will assist you in setting up your TV set.

However, you should read at least sections 1 to 8 of the Operating Instructions before putting your new TV set into service.

• Take care that no bright artificial light or sunshine falls directly on the screen. This could cause reflections which have a negative effect on the brilliance of the picture.

• The optimum viewing distance is about five times the screen diagonal dimension. For TV sets with a 70 cm screen, it is thus about 3.5 metres.

• The antenna cable and any other components (such as a video recorder) connected between the antenna socket in the wall and the TV set must comply with the European standard EN 60966-2-4.

• There may be no magnetic fields in the immediate vicinity of the TV set. Keep loudspeaker boxes well away from the set.

• The antenna cable used for connecting the TV set must have a screening attenuation of at least 75 dB.

• The use of non-approved cables will invalidate the operating permission for the TV set.

• For details of how to connect peripheral devices such as video recorders, DVD players, etc. press the „INFO“ key to call the help function, select „Connecting AV devices“ with the cursor and press „OK“ to display the information.

2. Safety notes

• Always place the monitor on a solid, stable surface.

• If a cold TV set is moved to a warm room, always allow any condensation on the screen to evaporate before switching it on.

• The TV set is intended for use in a dry room. If, in exceptional circumstances, you use it outdoors, take care that is protected against moisture (rain, splashed water, dew).

• TV sets need adequate ventilation. Never cover the openings on the rear of the set with curtains, doilies, newspapers, etc. Also take care that the slits in the bottom of the case are freely accessible so that the intake of the cooling air is not hindered.

• If you place the TV set in a wall unit, leave sufficient space on all sides for the circulation of cooling air.

• Do not place the TV set close to a radiator, since this would effect adequate cooling.

• Do not place

- burning candles or vessels containing liquids (vases, etc.) on top of the TV set, since any hot wax or water dripping into the set could cause serious damage to the electronic components and could also jeopardize the electrical safety of the set.

• Lightning can damage electrical equipment. A lightning flash entering the power cable or the aerial cable can damage the TV set even if it is switched off. You should therefore disconnect the power cable and aerial cable from their outlets or from the TV set in the case of a thunderstorm.

• The monitor may be opened and repaired only by a qualified person.

CAUTION! HIGH VOLTAGES CAN KILL !

If repairs should be necessary, consult your local dealer.

• Always switch off the TV set before cleaning it.

• Do not hold the remote control directly in front of your eyes and press a button. The remote control emits infrared radiation!

• Do not place rechargeable batteries in the battery compartment of the remote control. Use only two 1.5 V dry batteries of the type LR03/AM4/AAA (Micro).

• The TV set is intended only for the reception and reproduction of picture and sound signals.

• The TV set may be operated only from a mains voltage of 230 VAC, 50/60 Hz. Australia: 240 VAC.

• Lay the power cable so that nothing stands on it and no-one can trip over it.

The remote control sends commands to the TV set by means of an infrared signal. You must point it towards the TV set when using it. Note that the remote control may interfere with the operation of other devices which use infrared signals (such as infrared headphones).

Sunlight falling directly on the TV set may interfere with the operation of the remote control, since the TV set cannot detect the infrared signals from the remote control under these conditions. The TV set must be switched on with the main power switch before it can be controlled with the remote control.

17.1 Setting the Time Opening the menu

Normally, the TV set will determine the current date and time from the Teletext signals of the currently selected station (providing this station sends Teletext).

If this is not the case, or if an incorrect date or time is displayed, you can set the date and time manually.

In almost all cases, you will not need to do this. Even the changeover between winter time and summer time is executed automatically.

Setting the date and time manually:

• Press the "MENU" key to open the TV menu.

• Press the green key to open the "Timer" menu.

• Press the numeric key

 to select

"Time settings".

• Press the "OK" key and then, in the setting window, enter the current time with the numeric keys.

• You can then start the internal clock precisely by pressing the "OK" key when the time you have entered is reached.

• Press the numeric key

 to select

"Current date".

• In the setting window, enter the date with the numeric keys.

• Press the "OK" key to save the settings.

• Press the "EXIT" key to close the TV menu.

The local time offset is the difference between the local time where the TV set is installed and Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). The TV set normally detects this time offset and also the additional changeover to summer time.

The time needs to be set manually only if it is not detected automatically.

This menu item is not available in a 2 ** menu.

In the menu item "Recording control", you can set a lead time and an overrun time for timer recordings.

The TV set is automatically switched to the programme position from which the recording is to be made at a time which is the number of minutes programmed as the lead time before the pro- grammed starting time for the recording.

At the end of the programmed recording time, the TV set remains set to this programme position for the period programmed as the overrun time.

For VPS recordings, the TV set is automatically

switched to the programme position from which the recording is to be made at a time which is the number of minutes programmed as the VPS lead time before the programmed starting time for the recording. By default, the TV set switches to this programme position about one hour before the programmed start time for a VPS recording.

17.2 Recording control

Application example:

You wish to record a programme received via DVB-T. The programme starts at 22:45 hours, ends at 23:40 hours and is broadcast on ITV.

Set up a "manual timer" as described in Section 18, "Special Functions 2, Timer Overview" or set a timer with the aid of the EPG as described in Section 22.3 “Using EPG, Recording a Programme". The timer recording does not use VPS.

Set the lead time to 3 minutes and the overrun time to 10 minutes.

At the programmed start time minus the programmed lead time of three minutes, the TV set is either:

- switched on from the standby state (red LED lights) with the programme position for ITV selected, whereby the screen remains dark but the programme is sent via the EURO socket to your recorder, or

- switched to the programme position for ITV if it is already switched on.

At the programmed end of the recording (at 23:40 hours) the programme position for ITV remains selected for the programmed overrun time of 10 minutes.

It is not possible to switch to another programme position during the programmed lead and overrun times.

20. EPG

EPG is an Electronic Program Guide containing

programme information for all important stations. It is broadcast by various stations (in Germany by Kabel1 and RTL 2) and also includes the data for the other TV stations in the country.

The TV set needs about 30 minutes to initially download the large amount of data.

• On TV sets with two tuners, the EPG data are downloaded with the aid of the second tuner (see the next page). Once the data have been downloaded, the TV set stores the EPG in a special memory.

The EPG in this memory is updated regularly, providing the TV set is not switched off with the main power switch.

• On TV sets with only one tuner:

- the EPG programme position must remain selec-

ted for at least 30 minutes, or

- the data are downloaded at night (02:30 -

03:00) when the TV set is in standby mode.

Not possible with an external receiver !

49

20.1 Activating the EPG

The EPG function can be activated by briefly pressing the "EPG" key if an EPG programme position has been defined in the menu (see below). If no EPG programme position has been defined in the menu, the following applies.

When any programme position on which EPG can be received is selected, the following is displayed after a short delay:

The TV set is thus asking whether you want to use this station as the source for the EPG data.

If you press any key other than the green key, this programme position is not used as the source of EPG data. The message will be displayed again on any other programme position where the EPG data are available.

If you press the green key for "Yes", this programme position will be used as the source for the EPG data. The message will not be displayed for any other programme positions.

If you know which programme position provides EPG data, you can enter its number in the TV menu with the numeric keys.

You can also overwrite an existing programme position number or clear it with the II key.

• TV set with a single tuner: select the EPG programme position and leave it selected for 30 minutes

• TV set with two tuners: the TV set collects the EPG data with the aid of the second tuner.

Special notes:

All stations which are found by a station search are displayed in the station table and also listed in the EPG. Stations which carry two different programmes at different times of the day must be stored in two programme positions (see Section

24).

You can select which stations are to be listed in the EPG.

• If you wish to exclude further stations from the EPG, use the cursor control keys    to select each station and repeat the above step.

The data collection operation is interrupted if:

- the Teletext function is called;

- a recording is programmed in the

menu "AV recording";

- a "timer recording” is active or will

start within one hour;

- the Teletext function "Subtitles" is acti-

vated.

If you switch the TV set to the standby state during the data-collection operation, the green LED lights or "EPG" is displayed to indicate that data collection is still running.

Copying between AV Devices Direct recording

Opening the menu

If you wish to copy a recording from one of the AV devices connected to your TV set (such as a DVD player) to another connected AV device (such as a video recorder), you must do this by means of a direct recording operation. In this case, the signal arriving at one of the EURO sockets is redirected to the other EURO socket, from where it can be recorded.

Example: you have a DVD player and a video

recorder connected to the EURO sockets of the TV set (see Section 25).

Programming a direct recording for copying:

• Press the "AV " key and use the corres- ponding numeric key to select the DVD player (playback device).

• Press the F2 key. Briefly pressing F2 executes the function which is programmed for this function key (see Section 18.1, "Programming function keys"). Pressing and holding F2 for about three seconds displays all functions available for this function key.

• Press numeric key

 to open the

timer menu. The timer window displays the AV programme position (DVD player), the current date and a time window of two hours.

• If two hours is insufficient for the copying operation, use the numeric keys to enter a later end time.

Automatic zoom

When the automatic zoom function is active, programmes broadcast in "widescreen format" (such as those in the 16:9 format) are expanded to fill as much of the screen as possible.

If this function is inactive, the format of such programmes is not adjusted automatically.

AV programme position

AV devices have one or more connection sockets, depending on the model. The designations of these sockets are marked on the device (e.g. AV1).

On the AV device, you can select which socket you want to use. The selected socket is shown on the display of the AV device (e.g. A1 for socket AV1).

Code

The settings for the childlock function are protected by a four-digit code: you can enter any desired code, but you should note it for future use. If you have forgotten your code, please consult your local dealer.

Comb filter

2)

In conventional TV sets, the brightness signal is separated from the colour information with the aid of a frequency filter.

However, such a filter cannot prevent a certain amount of the brightness signal from being mixed with the colour signal, causing interference (socalled cross-luminance interference). Similarly a certain amount of the colour signal is mixed with the brightness signal (so-called cross-colour interference). The comb filter does away with these shortcomings. Just like a comb, it extracts the colour signal (which is carried in the gaps of the brightness signal) without affecting the bandwidth of the brightness signal.

2) Possible only on sets equipped with this function.

85

The result is a TV picture with the highest possible resolution, without any cross-colour or cross-luminance interference.

CTI

The CTI (Colour Transient Improvement) circuit is an electronic circuit which provides a perfect transition between neighbouring areas of different colours on the screen and prevents "smudging" of the colours. This function is effective for both TV signals and signals from AV devices.

Forced mono

It may happen that your TV set switches to stereo mode although the programme you are watching is not broadcast with stereo sound. This is normally due to the local reception conditions. If you set the selected programme position to "forced mono" all programmes received at this programme position are reproduced with mono sound.

Noise reduction

This function allows you to improve the picture quality of "snowy" pictures which result from poor reception conditions. Various levels of noise reduction can be selected and the settings can be made separately for each programme position.

Panorama

2)

The panorama function can be used to expand "normal" TV programmes broadcast in the 4:3 format to fill the full width of a 16:9 screen. This is done by expanding the picture width accordingly.

Picture position, vertical

With widescreen films, subtitles are sometimes transmitted in the black area at the bottom of the screen. You can move the picture upwards on the screen to ensure that these subtitles remain visible.

Progressive scan

This function serves to improve the apparent sharpness and contrast, particularly for films played back from DVD players connected via YUV (see page 68). In normal TV mode, the progressive scan should be set to "Automatic".

Rotation

2)

With this function, you can compensate for the effects of the Earth's magnetic field, which may cause the picture to be "tilted" (horizontal lines in the picture are not parallel with the edges of the screen).

Standard values

The standard values are the settings (such as brightness, sound volume, colour, etc.) which are the same for all programme positions.

Spatial sound

This function can be used to create an artificial stereo effect for programmes with sound in mono.

Stereo wide

For stereo broadcasts, the distance between the speakers can be increased artificially in order to achieve a wider stereo effect.

SRS-WOW

2)

WOW is an audio system developed by SRS Labs, Inc. which provides a unique listening experience. The sound becomes fuller and the bass is deeper and more voluminous.

Activation of the WOW function allows you to hear a lot of spatial and environmental audio information which is lost in normal stereo mode.

In normal TV mode, the WOW function can be preselected by pressing the yellow key and then switched on and off with the

Tone settings

The tone can be set to either "Normal" or "Speech". In the setting "Speech", the bass and treble components of the sound signal are set to make speech as easy to understand as possible. The setting "Normal" is recommended for music programmes.

VCR

The VCR function provides an optimal picture quality when playing back recordings from tape devices such as camcorders or video recorders.

Volume correction

The various stations broadcast their sound at different volumes. The TV set can automatically compensate for these differences in the volume. This function remains active even if the standard sound settings are recalled.

41. Basic differences between analog terrestrial

reception and DVB-T

Information for our dealers and interested customers.

In order to understand how the behaviour of DVB-T receivers differs from that of the analog terrestrial receivers used until now, two things are important: digital transmission and the simultaneous broadcasting network.

Digital transmission

A DVB transmitter does not transmit only a single programme, but a set of programmes – normally six to eight. The information for each programme – the picture, the sound and teletext – is converted into a digital format, i.e. into numerical values which are grouped together in packets. The packets of the various programmes are then transmitted sequentially in a so-called transport stream.

Further information which permits the receiver to detect and correct any errors which occur during transmission is added to this transport stream.

Example:

If the information 0 or 1 is to be transmitted, the 0 could be encoded as 000 and the 1 as 111. If one of the three digits numbers is falsified during transmission, i.e. the receiver receives, for example, 010 instead of 000, the receiver can decide that the presence of at least two zeros indicates that the intended information value was 0 and, correspondingly, that at least two ones indicates the information 1.

If two of the numbers in a block are changed, the receiver can detect that an error has occurred, but any attempt to correct this would have the wrong result.

Example:

If the information 0 is encoded as 000 and is received as 101, the receiver would assume that this should have been 111 and will then decode it, incorrectly, as 1.

To sum up: several programmes are transmitted by

a single transmitter in the form of digital packets. Additional information is transmitted to permit complete correction of a certain number of transmission errors.

Simultaneous broadcasting network

For DVB-T, the programmes are not transmitted on a modulated carrier frequency; instead, one channel with a width of 8 MHz contains 8,192 individual carrier frequencies.

Some of the signals reaching the receiver come directly from the transmitter, others are signals which have been reflected from obstacles in the vicinity and some are even those transmitted by other transmitters. Normally, these signals reinforce each other. In extreme cases, however, if they are out of phase and have the same amplitude, the signals can cancel each other out:

91

41. Basic differences between analog terrestrial reception and DVB-T

Addition

Cancellation

In most cases, only a few of the 8,192 carrier frequencies will be fully cancelled out and the information which is lost can be reconstructed by the error-correction function of the receiver. Reception becomes impossible only if very strong reflections cause the loss of too many carrier frequencies.

The phase relationship between two signals depends on the path taken by these signals on their way to the receiver.

If a rooftop antenna is used, almost all of the signals reach the receiver by the same path.

If an indoor antenna is used, the signals reaching the receiver may have been reflected from

- objects outside the building,

- objects such as thermally insulated windows (coated with metal films),

- reinforced-concrete parts of the building,

- persons in the vicinity or

- the furnishings of the room.

The signals may also have come from a different transmitter.

In such cases, the reception quality depends not only on the actual signal strength, but also on how many carrier frequencies are cancelled out.

Such problems can often be corrected by adjusting the position and the alignment of the antenna. In general, moving the antenna a few centimetres to one side, or tilting or turning the antenna, can improve reception far more than the use of an additional antenna amplifier.

Simply moving the antenna a few centimetres to one side can often cause the signals to be added together instead of cancelling each other out.
