The V19 and V21 are Mitsubishi’s high end Projection
TV chassis for 2 years. Specific models for each chassis type are listed above. Both chassis types have features not available in previous models. These features
include:
• Integrated ATV Tuner
• System 5 A/V Network
• NetCommandTM Home Theater Control
• IEEE 1394 Inputs/Outputs
• HAVi Compatibility
• 5C Copy Protection
• Record Timer for IEEE1394 D-VCR
Other features include:
• Five Picture Format modes
• Picture Format Memory by Input
• IR Repeater Outputs
• PIP-POP features (V19)
• PIP-POP and Multi PIP features (V21)
• Composite and S-Video Monitor Outputs
• Sub Picture Sound Outputs.
• Analog DTV, Component and VGA Inputs.
Differences between the V19 and V21 are software
related:
• Streamlined NetCommand Setup Menus.
• Multiple PIP.
• Different Service Menu Access Codes.
In addition to cosmetic differences, the main difference
between various models are optical improvements in the
higher end models.
Due to the new added features, some terminology and
abbreviations used are new. Table 1-1 lists the defini-
tions for some of the new terminology.
The Integrated ATV Tuner enables reception of
HDTV signals without using an external Set Top Box.
The ATV Tuner and its’ associated circuitry is also capable of receiving Cable QAM digital signals, when not
scrambled.
NetCommandTM simplifiies the control of Home The-
ater System devices. It controls compatible analog, digital and HAVi components using only the TV layer of the
Remote Control.
When the Remote “Device” button is pressed an onscreen display shows all devices in that Home Theater
System. An example of a Device Select Display is shown
below.
The user selects the device using the “Direction” buttons, then presses “Enter”. Compatible devices are activated and corresponding input selections are automatically performed. The initial NetCommandTM setup procedure is described in Chapter 2.
NetCommandTM controls Home Theater components
by two methods:
1) Legacy Devices (System 5 compatible) are
controlled through IR Blasters connected to the
System 5 IR Output Jacks.
2)IEEE-1394 compatible components arecontrolled over cables connect to the 1394Jacks.
Ant A
Ant A
IEEE-1394 is a system used to transmit digital data
PCD-VHSDVD
streams over cable. The system may also be referredto as “Firewire®”. Basically it can be considered a pipe-line to transfer digital information from one unit to an-
other.
Device Select Display
1-2
When used with consumer Audio Video products it
transfers digital data streams for DTV and Digital Cable
Boxes. This includes MPEG2 HDTV data streams.
When components are 1394 compatible, interconnection of the units is simplified. Figure 1-1 illustrates how
the 1394 system simplifies interconnection between the
DTV and a D-VCR.
Figure 1-1A shows the connections between a DTV
and D-VCR when components are not 1394 compatible. Six cables are required to transfer analog signals
from one unit to the other. In addition, control of the
VCR would be from an IR Blaster signal or directly
from the D-VCR’s Remote.
Figure 1-1B shows a single 1394 cable connection between a DTV and the D-VCR that are 1394 compliant.
There are two types of 1394 Cables:
• 6 wire – two wires for data transfer, two wires
for timing, and two wires for power.
• 4 wire – two for data transfer and two for
timing.
tion between conductors. 1394 cables may be up to
40 feet in length.
Home Theater components that are not System 5
or 1394 compatible can usually be controlled through
the TV by one of two methods.
1) Using the corresponding Mitsubishi remote
layer, Cable, VCR, DBS or DVD.
2) Using that component’s Remote Control and an
IR Blaster connected to the IR Repeater Jacks.
5C Copy Protection
5C Copy Protection prevents copying restricted signals. There are three levels of 5C Copy Protection:
1) Unlimited Recording allowed.
Figure 1-2 shows an IEEE-1394 4 wire cable, used in
consumer Audio Video. It consists of two pairs of
twisted wires. Each pair is separately shielded, and then
the entire cable is shielded. This minimizes any interac-
1-3
2) One Recording allowed.
3) No Recordings allowed.
At present, only QAM (Digital Cable Signals) are coded
with 5C Copy Protection. When the V19 detects a
Copy Protected signal, that signal is not output at the
Monitor Outputs of the TV.
Monitor Output Sources
There are only two sources that output signals at the
Monitor Outputs, NTSC signals and signals from the
ATV Tuner (when not Copy Protected).
Timer Recording
Mitsubishi's HS-HD2000U and HS-HD1100U, DVCRs includes HDTV recording capability and HAVi.
However it must be connected to an external ATV Receiver with a IEEE-1394 interface, such as in the V19
chassis. Time Shift Recording allows recording from
the V19’s ATV Tuner without turning the TV On, only
the TV’s signal circuits are activated. The Time Shift
Recording time can be pre-programmed so the user does
not have to be present to activate the recording.
External Inputs & Outputs
Analog External Inputs and Outputs are located both
on the rear and front of the TV. Figure 1-3 shows the
External Analog Inputs and Outputs. The DTV Inputs
1-4
are still available even though a Set Top Box is not needed
to receive HD broadcasts. In the V19 these inputs are
mainly used to connect a Digital Broadcast Satellite
(DBS) to the TV.
The IR Emitter Repeater outputs are for connecting IR
Blasters to control AV devices that are not System 5 or
1394 compatible. Signals from other manufacturer’s
remotes are amplified in the TV and output from the
Repeater Jacks.
• ANT-DTV … Antenna or Cable Input (ATSC
or QAM)
• Three 1394 Jacks … to connect external 1394
compatible devices
• Two System 5 IR Emitter Jacks … for IR
Blasters controlling external System 5 devices.
• Digital Audio Output … AC-3® digital output
for connection to an external device with an
AC-3® Decoder.
Digital Analog Inputs & Outputs are located on the
rear of the TV and are shown in Figure 1-4. These
include:
Display Formats
Figure 1-5 illustrates the Display Formats possible in
the V19. Pressing the “FORMAT” button on the Re-
mote Control changes the Display Format. Note that
1-5
all five Display Formats can only be accessed when the
signal source is 480i. When the source is 480p, only
Standard and Narrow can be activated, and when the
source is 1080i only Standard is available.
PIP-POP V21 has multi-PIP capabilitys. Only 480iformat signals can be selected for POP/PIP main and
sub pictures. POP pictures can be viewed in either the
“Standard” or “Expand” format.
The Format memory is by input. When a Display Format is selected for an Input, that format will be activated
when that input is selected again.
POP/PIP Features
POP/PIP features are illustrated in Figure 1-6. They
are similar to those in previous models. In addition to
In the Standard Format main POP pictures are symmetrical and there are dark areas at the top and bottom
of the picture. In the Expand Format, the main picture
is compressed horizontally and stretched vertically, removing the black areas.
Remote Control
1-6
The Remote Hand Unit for the V19 appears the same
as that in previous models, refer to Figure 1-7. However there are two differences.
• The "INPUT" button is changed to "DEVICE".
• There are two operational modes, Standard
and NetCommandTM.
The Remote for the V21 is physically larger but has the
same basic functions. See Figure 1-8.
The Remote Hand Unit comes in the Standard Mode
so the TV can be controlled in the normal fashion. To
use NetCommandTM, the Remote Hand Unit must be
changed to the NetCommandTM mode. Changing the
Remote operational mode is described in Chapter 2.
LED Diagnostics
The LED Diagnostic Mode, used in some previous
models is carried over in the V19 and V21 with some
additional features. This helps isolate the source of shutdown problems by counting how many times the front
panel LED flashes. For details on this feature, refer to
Chaper 11.

NetCommand
The NetCommandTM feature in the V19 and V21 is an
enhanced user simplified Home Theater Control System. It provides graphic control of an entire Home Theater System through the TV. It controls existing analog
devices along with New Digital Home Theater devices.
NetCommandTM uses System 5 to control Home
Theater components with IR Blasters, and also controls HAVi capable devices over 1394 cables.
When a TV is first installed, the Setup Wizard automatically displays a series of Initial Setup Screens to configure System 5. It allows entry of all devices connected
to the TV. When the Initial Setup is complete,
NetCommandTM is automatically activated. For specfic
instructions on setup and use, refer to the Owner's Guide
and NetCommand Guide.

IEEE-1394 Devices
The TV automatically detects when an IEEE-1394 device is connected. The user will be asked to select a
name for that device that will be displayed in the Device
menu.
Remote Operational Mode
Before the NetCommandTM feature can be use, the Remote Hand Unit must be set to the NetCommand
operational mode. To change to the NetCommand
mode:
• Set the Remote to the TV Layer
• Point the Remote away from the TV
• While holding the "Power" button, press "9-35" in sequence.
Figure 2-12 illustrates how to change to the
NetCommand

Disassembly & PCB Locations
There are no radical changes in the disassembly of
V19 models. Figure 3-1 shows the cabinet rear disassembly for V19 models. The Light Box is still removable as a unit, as shown in Figure 3-1. Of course
all front panel PCBs and the speakers must be disconnected before the Light Box can be removed.
Figure 3-1 shows one major change to the Light Box
assembly, the addition of the Digital Module (DM)
on the left side. The ability to remove the CRTs,
main chassis and DM as a unit, facilitates servicing.
Only the Light Box is needed to troubleshoot most
problems. So only the Light Box can to be taken to
the shop, rather than the complete set.
3-1
Accessing The Main Chassis
The Main Chassis can still be accessed as is in previous models.
1) Loosen wire ties on cables to the CRTs, front
panel, speakers, etc.
2) Remove the three chassis mounting screws
(a), shown in Figure 3-2.
3) Release the chassis locks on the front of the
chassis, shown in Figure 3-3.
4) Slide the chassis out the rear of the cabinet.
The DM Module is attached and will slide
back with the chassis.
5) Tilt the chassis upward to access the bottom
of the PCBs.
In some cases, Cable length will not allow the DM
to slide back with the chassis. If this occurs:
1) Remove the three DM mounting screws (b),
in Figure 3-2.
2) Slide the DM Module out the rear of the
unit.
3) Then slide the chassis out the rear of the
unit.
NOTE: The DM Module must be connected to the
main chassis, or the TV will not switch On.
Main Chassis PCB Locations
Figure 3-3 shows the location of PCBs that comprise the main chassis. The following PCBs are plug
in and are considered replaceable components:
• PCB-3DYC
• PCB-2HDW
• PCB-CONV-GENE
• PCB-JUNGLE
• PCB-DBF
PCBs SIGNAL, POWER and MAIN are not considered replaceable, an troubleshooting must be to
component level.

Adjustments
ChassisOption Menu Adjustment ModeConvergence ModeOSD Position
The individual Adjustment Procedures for the V19 and
V21 are basically the same as in previous models, and
are described in the Service Manual. Therefore, they
don't require repeating here. There are some changes
in the Adjustment Procedure process in the V19/V21
Chassis. The changes iclude:
• Change in the "Mode Activation Codes".
• Change in On-screen nomenclature of some
"Adjustment Functions".
• New OSD Position Adjust Mode.
• Change in the procedure to activate the
"Convergence HD Mode" with no signal.
The OSD Position Mode is new. In previous models,
OSD position was set in the HR Function of the
Adjustment Mode. The V19/V21 uses a separate
mode, with its' own activation code to position the OSD.
Activation Codes
For a quick reference, Table 4-1 lists the codes for the
V21 and previous chassis types.
4-1
Adjustment Mode
Outside of the activation code, the procedure
for the "Adjustment Mode" is the basically
same as in previous models. Figure 4-1 illustrates the "Adjustment Mode" procedure.
One of the changes in the "Adjustment Mode"
is the on screen nomenclature used for some
of the "Adjustment Functions. The changes
are shown in Table 4-2
In the Adjustment Mode VC Function,
pressing "3" toggles the signal mode between 480i, 480p, 1080i, DM and VGA.
DM is an added signal format, but is only
available for possible future use. When "3"
is pressed, data changes are not automatically saved. Therefore, press "ENTER"
save data before pressing "3".
OSD Position Mode
The horizontal position of the OSD is set in this mode.
The OSD Position must be set in both the SD (Standard Definition), and HD formats. The procedure for
setting OSD Position is given Figure 4-2.
Convergence Mode
Like the "Adjustment Mode" the only change in the
"Convergence Mode" procedure is the activation
code. Figure 4-3 graphically shows the general "Convergence Mode" procedure.
SD OSD Horizontal Position Procedure
1) Selec t an NTSC s ignal (A nt-A or A nt-B).
2) Press "M E NU-0-1-8-8" or "MENU-2-1-8-8"
3) Use the Adjust Buttons to adjust OSDSD data to c enter the
On Screen Display.
4) Press "M ENU" to s ave data and exit the mode.
HD OSD Horizontal Position Procedure
1) Selec t an HD signal (DTV Inputs).
2) Press "M E NU-0-1-8-8" or "MENU-2-1-8-8"
3) Use the Adjust Buttons to adjust OSDHD data to center the
On Screen Display.
4) Press "M ENU" to s ave data and exit the mode.

Table 4-2: Adjustment Function Changes
One additional change is the procedure on how to activate the HD Convergence Mode when no HD signal is
available
Figure 4-2: OSD Position Adjustment Procedure

Note: In an Adjustment Mode, if the data
changes too fast ... Change the Remote to the
NetCommandTM mode. (Hold "Power" and
press "9-3-5" in sequence).
Caution: When adjustments are complete,
change back to the Standard Mode. (Hold
"Power" and press "0-0-0" in sequence.
HD Convergence Mode With No Signal
Although HD Test Patterns are required to perform
Centering and Static Convergence, it is possible to perform Coarse and Fine Convergence Adjustments when
no HD signal is available.
Note: To produce the internal crosshatch with
a black background:
1) Turn off Video Mute.
2) Select a source with no signal.
3) Activate the Convergence Mode.
With Video Mute On, only a blue raster is produced.
The procedure for activating the HD Convergence Mode
with no HD signal, is easier than that used in previous
models. Merely select ANT-DTV as the signal source
and then enter the Convergence Activation code. The
Convergence Mode comes on in the HD mode. Fig-ure 4-4 graphically illustrates this procedure.
