coordinated with the TV Guide On Screen® system for
the control of cable boxes and to activate the record

feature of your VCR. Either connection can be used for

NetCommand functions.

3. INPUT 1 and 2

(Audio/Video 1 and 2)

Inputs 1 and 2 can be used for the connection of a

VCR, Super VHS (S-VHS) VCR, DVD player, standard
satellite receiver or other AiV device to the TV. Please

note that if S-VIDEO and VIDEO are available for the
input, you must choose to connect only one. They

cannot both be connected at the same time.

4. COMPONENT 1, 2, and 3 inputs

YPbPr (480i/480p/720pi1080i}

These inputs can be used for the connection of devices

with component video outputs, such as a DVD piayer,
external HDTV receiver, or compatible video game

system. Please see Appendix B for signal compatibility.

5. DVJ AnaJog Audio

Uniike HDMI, DVl does not carry audio information on

the same cable. Use these analog stereo audio inputs
when using the HDMI input with a device that outputs

DVl instead of HDMI, such as DVl output from a personaI

computer.

6. AUDIO OUTPUT, RECORD OUTPUT

AUDIO OUTPUT sends analog audio of the program
currently shown on the screen to an A/V surround sound

receiver or stereo system. Digital audio from digital

channels, FireWire® (DTV Link/EEE 1394) devices and

HDMI devices is converted to analog audio by the TV. If

you do not have a digital A/V receiver, this should be the
only audio connection between the TV and your analog

A/V receiver or stereo system.

RECORD OUTPUT sends analog audio and video to a
VCR for recording purposes. These signals may not be
the same as those of the program that is currently being

shown on screen. Signals from digital channels and

FireWire (IEEE 1394) devices are converted to analog
signals. There is no video signal when copy restrictions

are in effect. Audio alone is output when Component 1, 2,
or 3, or the HDMI input is selected for recording.

7. HDM[ TM 1 and 2

The HDMI (High Definition Multimedia interface)

supports uncompressed standard and high-definition
digital video formats and PCM digital audio format.

Use these inputs to connect to EIA/CEA=861 compliant

devices such as a high=definition receiver or DVD player.

These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i video

formats.

These inputs can also be used as a DVl connection with

separate analog audio inputs. An optionaI HDM[=to=DV[
adaptor or cable is necessary to make this connection

and may be available from your Iocal electronics retailer.
When using the optional HDMI=to=DVI adapter, the DV[

analog audio inputs on your TV allow you to receive left
and right audio from your DVl device.

This input is HDCP (High=Bandwidth Digital Copy

Protection) compliant.

HDM[ 2
HDM[ 2 also allows the TV to display DVl or HDMI output

from a PC. To view PC video on the TV, you must activate
the PC option in NetCommand. You can do this during

initial NetCommand setup (in the Device Setup screen),

or at any time afterwards by using the NetCommand Add
function.

access card customized to your account. This card
allows the TV to receive, decode and unscramble the

premium digital channels included in your cable TV
subscription without the use of a cable box. See page

23 for additional CabieCARD information and activation

instructions.

If your cable company is not currently offering
CabIeCARD access cards, you will need to use a

cable box provided and authorized by your local cable
company to view scrambled channels.

10. Digital Audio Output

This output sends Dolby® Digital or PCM digita[ audio to

your digital A/V surround sound receiver. Analog audio
from analog channels and devices is converted by the

TV to PCM digital audio. In most cases, this should be

the only audio connection between the TV and your A/V

receiver. If you have MP3 audio sources, however, you

need to connect the TV's analog AUDIO OUTPUT (left
and right) to your A/V receiver.

If you want audio from a PC when using PC DVl output,

you must connect the PC audio output to the TV INPUT/

DV[ Analog Audio 2, located above the HDMI 2 input.

Connecting E×temai Devices and NetCommand® Setup

NetCommand is able to control many current audio and video devices by sending remote control signals from the TV
to each device through IR emitters. Additionally, it is also able to barn the remote control signals used by most audio
video devices not already in the TV's memory. NetCommand can automatically switch the TV and compatible or
learned Audio/'Video (A/V) Receivers to the correct input used with each device. It is important that the inputs on the

TV and AiV receiver back panels match the NetCommand setup that is displayed on screen.
To simplify the installation of NetCommand, there is a step-by-step on-screen NetCommand Setup procedure in this

chapter, which details the type and brands of devices you are connecting to the TV. The NetCommand Setup also
assigns preset TV and AiV receiver inputs for each device. You should connect each device to the TV input (both audio
and video) and to the AiV receiver (audio) as shown in the figure below. If you connect devices to inputs other than the
ones shown as presets, you must change the NetCommand setup accordingly. See the Edit NetCommand information
starting on page 47.

I I

The following charts show which preset inputs you should use on the TV and AiV receiver.

Chart 1 shows the default TV inputs existing in NetCommand.
Chart 2 shows the AiV receiver inputs used by AiV receiver models already known by NetCommand.

CabieCARE) TM Technology

CabJeCARD TechnoJogy

CableCARD is a nationwide system standard that
allows your local cable TV provider to supply you with
an access card customized to your account. This card
allows your TV to receive, decode and unscramble the
premium digital channels included in your cable TV
subscription without the use of a cable box. It also
allows your cable provider to automatically update
and change your subscription. When you move to
a new cable provider's area, you simply return the
CableCARD to the original cable provider and get a
new card from your new cable provider.

Please note that CableCARD is a new technology and
your local cable provider may not currently be offering
this service. As time passes, this system will become
broadly supported by most cable providers.

The CableCARD system is "unidirectional" which
means your cable provider can send updates to the
access card and TV, however, the TV cannot send
back signals such as requests for Video-On-Demand
or Pay-pePView programs by remote control.

Digital cable channels authorized by the CableCARD
will be available on the Firewire® IEEE 1394 network

and can be shared by other products on the network.
Some digital channels or programs may not be copied
or recorded because of copy restriction limits set by
the content owners or copyright holders.

The digital television is capable of receiving analog
basic, digital basic and digital premium cable

television programming by direct connection to
a cable system providing such programming. A

security card (CableCARD) provided by your cable
operator is required to view encrypted digital

programming. Certain advanced and interactive
digital cable services such as video-on-demand, a

cable operator's enhanced program guide and data-
enhanced television services may require the use of a

set-top box. For more information call your local cable
operator.

Using a CabJeCARD

After inserting a CableCARD into the TV back
panel CableCARD slot and powering On the TV, the
initialization process begins. An initial screen will
automatically display for a few minutes, with information

that your Cable Provider will need in order to start

service. Please write down this information before calling
your cable provider.

Please call XYZ Cable
at xxx-xxx-xxxx to

actwate caele service.

They wm neeo these numeers:
Host ID X-XXX-XXX-XXX-XXX

CableCARD 7MID: X-XXX-XXX-XXX-YOCX

See owner's manual for
further information

An example of an initial screen is shown here. Your
screen will display specific information from your cable
provider and may not look like this screen.

If you were unable to record the information, you can
press TV MENU on the remote and then enter the
number 999 and the screen will re-display. You can
also press DEVICE MENU when the CableCARD is the
selected source and you will be able to select the startup
application.

Please see page 58 for instructions on how to insert
the CableCARD.
