Your new high-definition widescreen television has
many special features that make it the perfect center of
your home entertainment system, including:
1080p High=Definition DLP Display System
Your Mitsubishi HDTV uses Texas Instruments Digital
Light Processing TM technology for rear-projection TVs to create the picture you see on screen. All images are displayed at 1080p. The TV uses Plush 1080p® 5G to convert lower-resolution signals to 1080p for display.
The TV can also accept 1080p original signals and
maintain them at 1080p through all processing until displayed.
3D Ready
All Mitsubishi 1080p DLP HDTV's are 3D Ready. This
feature lets you experience the new 3D technolo- gies applied to many recent movies and video games.
Immerse yourself in your favorite video game, movie, or sporting event displayed in 3D.
16:9 Widescreen Picture Format
Enjoy a full theatrical experience in the comfort of your
home. View pictures as film directors intended them.
Digital TV broadcasts, DVDs and newer video game consoles support this widescreen format.
These inputs support HDMI 1.3 Deep Color (up to
36 bits) and the ×.v.Color extended color gamut.
Used with an adapter, these HDMI inputs also
accept compatible digital DVl video signals. HDMI
inputs provide additional high-performance, high-definition connections for maximum flexibility in your choice of home theater products. The HDMI inputs are HDCP copy-protection compatible.
Easy Connect Auto Input Sensing
Easy Connect TM Auto Input Sensing automatically rec- ognizes when you plug in a device and prompts you to assign a name to it. The TV ignores any unused inputs,
so the result is an uncluttered menu where you can easily find and select connected devices by name.
Home=Theater Control
HDMI Control
Available for all models. HDMI devices with Con-
sumer Electronics Control (CEC) capabilities may be compatible with the TV's HDMI Control feature. Com-
patible devices can receive control signals through the
HDMI connection, allowing the TV's remote control to operate some functions of these devices.
Integrated HDTV Tuner
Your widescreen Mitsubishi HDTV has an internal HDTV
tuner able to receive both over-the-air HDTV broad- casts (received via an antenna) and non-scrambled
digital cable broadcasts, including non-scrambled
HDTV cable programming.
High=Definition Video Inputs
Component Video Inputs. Also called Y/Pb/Pr inputs, these inputs receive standard analog video
formats of 480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080i high-defini- tion signals. This provides a high level of flexibility when connecting DVD players/recorders, cable
boxes, and satellite receivers. HDMI Inputs. These inputs accept digital 480i,
480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p video signals plus
PCM digital stereo signals. The HDMF Minputs can
also accept a variety of PC signals and resolutions.
837 Series. Your Mitsubishi HDTV offers a new level of networking that seamlessly integrates selected
older A/V products with new and future digital prod-
ucts. NetCommand e supports IR (infrared) control of products such as VCRs, DVD players, cable boxes, and
satellite receivers. NetCommand can "learn" remote
control signals directly from many devices, allowing you to create a customized NetCommand-controlled home-
theater system. The necessary IR emitter cables are available for purchase separately from Mitsubishi.

1. ANT (Antenna)
Connect your main antenna or direct cable service (no cable box) to ANT. The ANT input can receive digital and analog over-the-air channels from a VHF/UHF antenna or non-scrambled digital/analog cable source.
2. HDMI TM Inputs (High=Definition Multimedia Interface)
The HDMI inputs support uncompressed standard and
high-definition digital video formats and PCM digital
stereo audio.
IVlitsubishi recommends you use category 2 HDMI
cables, also called high-speed HDMI cables, to connect
HDMI 1.3source devices. High-speed category 2 cables bring you the full benefits of Deep Color and ×.v.Color.
These HDMI inputs can also accept digital DVl video
signals. To connect a device's DVl output to the TV's
HDMI input, use an HDMI-to-DVl adapter or cable plus analog audio cables. Connect the analog audio cables to the DVI/PC INPUT AUDIO jacks on the TV to receive left and right stereo audio from your DVI device.
Use the HDMI inputs to connect to CEA-861 HDMI com-
pliant devices such as a high-definition receiver or DVD
player. These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p video formats.
The TV's HDMI inputs are compatible with many DVI-D
and HDMI computer video signals.
These inputs are HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy
Protection) compliant.
3. Y Pb Pr (Component Video)
Connect devices with component video outputs to this jack. Use the adjacent AUDIO R and L jacks if you wish
to send audio to the TV.
4. VIDEO (Composite Video)
Connect a VCR, DVD player, standard satellite receiver, or other A/V device to the TV. Use the adjacent AUDIO
R and L inputs if you wish to send audio to the TV.
5. 3D GLASSES EMITTER
Use this jack for the special IR emitter supplied with 3D glasses. The emitter will send a signal that synchronizes your 3D glasses with the screen display. See page 25
6. DVI/PC INPUT AUDIO
When connecting a DVl device to one of the TV's HDMI
inputs, use these jacks for left and right analog audio.
7. AVR AUDIO OUTPUT
Use AVR AUDIO OUTPUT to send analog audio of the current program to an analog A/V surround sound
receiver or stereo system. Digital audio from digital channels and HDMI devices is converted to analog
audio by the TV for output on this jack. This is the only audio connection needed to the TV if using an analog A/V receiver or stereo system.
Headphones. The audio right (red) jack can also be
used for headphones that accept standard line level audio signals.
8. DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
This output sends Dolby Digital or PCM digital audio
to your digital A/V surround sound receiver. Incoming
analog audio is converted by the TV to PCM digital audio.
If you have a digital A/V receiver, in most cases this is the only audio connection needed between the TV and your
A/V receiver.
9. IR-NetCommand Output
837 Series. Connect IR emitters to this jack to send control signals to external IR remote-controlled devices.
10. RS-232C
837 Series. Use the RS-232C interface to receive control signals from compatible home-theater control
devices. See www.mitsubishi-tv.com for a list of control signals for this interface.
11. USB (837 Series)
The TV can read JPEG photo files and rap3 or wma music
files from a USB device connected to the USB port.

Most setups require either a digital audio cable or
analog stereo audio cables. To send audio from TV channels received on the ANT input or devices con-
nected directly to the TV, you must use one of the connections shown below. Usually, only one of these connections is required.
The TV makes all audio available in digital and analog
formats:
Analog audio coming into the TV is available as output in digital stereo format on the DiGiTAL
AUDIO OUTPUT jack.
Digital incoming audio is available as analog output on the AVR AUDIO OUTPUT L and Rjacks.

Required: One HDMI-to-HDMI cable This option allows you to view content from devices
connected to an A/V receiver. The A/V receiver can send audio and video to the TV over a single HDMI
cable. You can use an HDMI connection as described here in addition to an audio connection from the TV's
audio output. The optional audio connection allows you to hear, through the A/V receiver, devices connected to
the TV only, e.g., an antenna on the ANT input. You may be able to use the TV's remote control (in
TVmode) to operate connected CEC-enabled HDMI devices. Experiment with your equipment to determine
which functions are available to the TV's remote control. See Appendix C, page 66.

HDMI inputs only.
SD 4:3: Standard-definition squarish-screen-format
signals from digital channels on the ANT input.
SD 16:9: Standard-definition widescreen-format signals from digital channels on the ANT input.
HD 16:9: High-definition 16:9 widescreen signals from
digital channels on the ANT input.
TV Display Format Definitions
Standard: The full-screen format used by HDTV signals. Use this format to display anamorphic DVDs with a 1.78:1 or
1.85:1 aspect ratio. Anamorphic DVDs with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio are displayed correctly but with top and bottom black bars. Squarish (4:3) images are stretched evenly from side to side. Available for all signals.
Expand: Enlarges the picture to fill the screen by cropping the top and bottom; useful for reducing the letter box top and bottom bars of non-anamorphic DVD images.
Zoom: Enlarges the picture to fill the screen by cropping the sides, top, and bottom to eliminate black bars.
480i/480p and SD 4:3 signals: Eliminates top and bottom bars on anamorphic DVDs with a 2.35:1 aspect ratio.
