How Connections Affect the PIP and POP
To see a picture in the PIP or POP, you may
need to select an input source. If the only
input connected is ANT-A, then both the main
picture and the PIP/POP will be from that input
source. If other video equipment is connected,
you may be able to view these input sources
as the PIP/POP. When connecting your new
Mitsubishi bigscreen, it is important to
understand which main picture and PIP/POP
input sources can and cannot be used together.
Table 1 shows which inputs can and cannot be
used together and the limitations they may have.
If you press the INFO key it will display the
current Input, signal (480i, 480p, or 1080i),
format, time, day and sleep time.
See Operation of PIP and POP, pages 58-62,
for operating instructions.

How Connections Affect the System 4 Home Theater IR Control
(Applicable for WS-55411, WS-65411 and WS-73411 only.)
The Mitsubishi System 4 Home Theater IR
Control is a special feature that makes it easier
to use your TV with a digital surround sound
A/V receiver. Once your equipment is properly
connected and set up, your TV and digital A/V
receiver will change inputs together to match
high resolution pictures with the proper
surround sound.
When you change inputs on your TV to watch
different video products, your TV will send
signals via your remote control and the infrared
emitters to your digital A/V receiver to change
How Connections Affect the PIP and POP
inputs.
You will automatically hear the high quality
digital surround sound from digital products
like your DTV receiver and DVD player,
and high quality analog stereo or surround
sound from non-digital products like your
VCR.
Additionally, all IR remote signals from your
Mitsubishi remote or other manufacturer’s
remote will be passed through your TV to
your A/V devices. Your A/V devices can
be hidden or behind cabinet doors and
controlled by pointing the remote at the TV.

Part ll: Installation
Warning: Do not leave stationary or letterbox images on the screen for
extended periods of time. Mix the types of pictures shown.
Uneven picture tube aging is NOT covered by your warranty.
The normal use of a TV should include
a mixture of TV picture types. The most
frequently used picture types should ll
the screen with constantly moving images
rather than stationary images or patterns.
Displaying the same stationary patterns over
extended period of time or displaying the
same stationary pattern frequently can leave
subtle but permanent ghost images. To avoid
this, mix your viewing pattern. Do not show
the same stationary image for more than 15%
of your total TV viewing in any given week.
Display constantly moving and changing
images that ll the screen whenever possible.
This projection TV uses picture tubes to
project the image to the screen. All picture tubes age with use. As they age, their light
output is gradually reduced. Normal TV
pictures ll the screen with constantly
changing images. Under these conditions,
picture tubes age at an even rate across the
entire screen. This maintains a TV picture
that is evenly bright over the whole screen.
Stationary images or images that only partially
ll the screen (leaving black or colored bars
to ll the screen), when used over extended
periods of time or when viewed repeatedly,
can cause uneven aging of the phosphors and
leave subtle ghosts from the stationary images
in the picture.
Still or stationary images may be received
from broadcasters, cable channels, satellite
channels, DVD discs, video tapes, laser
discs, online services, web/Internet searching
devices, video games, and digital TV
tuner/converter boxes. Examples of these
types of images can be, but are not limited to
the following:
Letterbox top/bottom black bars:
shown at the top and bottom of the TV
screen when you watch a widescreen
(16:9) movie on a standard (4:3) TV.
Side bar images: solid bars shown on
each side of an image when watching a
standard (4:3) program on a widescreen
(16:9) TV.
Stock-market report bars: ticker running
at the bottom of the TV screen.
Shopping channel logos & pricing displays:
bright graphics that are shown constantly or
repeatedly in the same location.
Video game patterns and scoreboards
Bright station logos: moving or low-contrast
graphics are less likely to cause uneven aging
of the picture tubes.
Online (Internet) websites: or any other
stationary or repetitive computer style images.

V-Chip Signal Information
When provided by the broadcaster, V-Chip ratings can be used to control which programs can be viewed or will be
blocked. When V-Chip ratings are sent, you will see the ratings when you change the channel or when you press
the INFO button on the remote control. The V-Chip rating includes both TV and Movie ratings. TV ratings apply to
programs and movies developed for TV. TV ratings can have supplemental blocking by content categories. Movie
ratings use MPAA ratings for movies released in theaters.
TV Ratings:
Used with TV programs and made for TV movies.
TV-Y Youth, designed for children under the age of 7.
TV-Y7 Youth, 7 years old and older. Designed for children 7 years old and older.
TV-G General Audience. Designed for the entire family to view.
TV-PG Parental Guidence. Parental Guidence is recommended, may not be suitable for some children.
TV-14 Adolescent 14 years old and older. Not recommended for children under the age of 14.
TV-MA Mature Audience. Recommend for adults only.
Content Categories:
Used in association with the TV ratings above.
FV Fantasy Violence- applies to TV-Y7 only.
D Sexual Dialog- applies in different degrees to TV-PG and TV-14.
L Adult Language- applies in different degrees to TV-PG, TV-14, and TV-MA.
S Sexual Situations- applies in different degrees to TV-PG, TV-14, and TV-MA.
V Violence (graphic or realistic)- applies in different degrees to TV-PG, TV-14, and TV-MA.
Movie Ratings:

G General Audience- Designed for the entire family to view.
PG Parental Guidence- Parental Guidence is recommended, may not be suitable for some children.
PG-13 Parental Guidence 13 years old and older- Not recommended for children under the age of 13.
R Restricted- Restricted in the theater to 17 years old and older unless accompanied by an adult.
NC-17 No Children- Restricted in the theater to 18 years old and older.
X Adult- Designed for and restricted in the theater to adult audiences only.
Programs Not Rated: Used for programs that are not rated like news, sports, weather, emergency bulletins, or
movies such as those prior to or without MPAA Ratings. This does not include programs without V-Chip signals.
IMPORTANT: If you select to block programs that carry the V-Chip rating “Programs Not Rated,” you may block
News or Emergency Bulletins. The “None” or “NR” Not Rated V-Chip rating is included. Care should be used
when blocking programming that is not rated.
When you select a TV or Movie rating, you are selecting the highest level of program that will be allowed to be
viewed. As an example, if you select TV-PG, you are allowing programs rated TV-Y, TV-Y7, TV-G and TV-PG to
be seen and blocking programs rated TV-14 and TV-MA. If you select a movie rating of PG-13, you are allowing
movies rated G, PG and PG-13 to be seen and blocking movies rated R, NC-17, and X. When you select a TV
Content category, you will block all TV programs that have the same content category listing. As an example,
if you select to block V (Violence) at the TV-14 level, you will also block any program that has the V category
listing at the TV-PG rating level as well.
IMPORTANT: V-Chip is effective only for programs viewed on Ant-A and Ant-B or from devices connected to Inputs
1-3. It is not effective for programs viewed on devices connected to Component 1 and 2 or DTV input.
IMPORTANT: Videotapes, laser discs, and DVD’s may not contain V-Chip rating signals, in this case V-Chip cannot
block the program or movie.
IMPORTANT: Broadcasters are not currently required to include V-Chip rating signals at this time. If the broadcaster
does not include the V-Chip rating signal, V-Chip cannot block the program.

Contrast provides a slider to adjust the
white-to-black level. Low contrast shows a
variety of shades in darker images, while
high contrast shows darker images more
uniformly black and makes colors appear
more vibrant.
Brightness provides a slider to adjust the
overall brightness of the picture.
Sharpness provides a slider to adjust the
detail and clarity.
Color provides a slider to adjust the color
intensity.
Tint provides a slider to adjust the
proportion of red to green.
Color Temp (Color Temperature) allows
you to adjust how white images are
displayed. Your choices are:
• Low 6500K or Low (for DTV): White
images will have a warm cast to them.
This adjustment is an average and can
vary due to ambient room lighting, video
scene brightness and the TV’s age.
The Low 6500K represents the 6500K
industry standard for NTSC (non-DTV)
pictures.
• Medium: White images will be balanced
between the Low (warm) and High (cool)
settings.
Film Mode (Automatic)
Video media uses a video camera created at
30 frames per second. Film media uses a
lm camera created at 24 frames per second.
Examples of video media are live TV broadcast
such as news, special events, or video taped
programs. Examples of lm media are motion
pictures, made-for-TV movies, and many prime
time programs. Filmed media is converted by
the broadcaster or home video company to
30 frames per second to match TV or video
standards. This conversion can leave subtle
“picture artifacts” or conversion errors.
The settings are On and Off. If you select
On, the system automatically detects if the
signal source is Film and corrects for conversion
errors. If you select Off, the system will never
correct for conversion errors.
Velocity Scanning Modulation
(VSM) Sharpness
When turned On selected image outlines are
emphasized, resulting in sharper images.
The default is On. When turned Off, the velocity
scanning modulation function is prevented.

• High: White images will have a cool cast
to them. This setting may provide the
most realistic picture under bright lighting.
Video Noise reduces minor noise
(graininess) in the broadcast or input signal.
Part lll: Setup
Warning: Do not leave stationary or letterbox images on-screen for
extended periods of time. Mix the types of pictures shown.
Uneven picture tube aging is NOT covered by your warranty.
The normal use of a TV should include a
mixture of TV picture types. The most
frequently used picture types should ll the
screen with constantly moving images rather
than stationary images or patterns. Displaying
the same stationary patterns over extended
periods of time or displaying the same
stationary pattern frequently may leave a
subtle but permanent ghost image. To avoid
this, mix your viewing pattern. Do not show
the same stationary image for more than 15%
of your total TV viewing in any given week.
Display constantly moving and changing
images that ll the screen whenever possible.
This projection TV uses picture tubes to project
the image to the screen. All picture tubes age with use. As they age, their light output
is gradually reduced. Normal TV pictures ll
the screen with constantly changing images.
Under these conditions, picture tubes age at
an even rate across the entire screen. This
maintains a TV picture that is evenly bright
over the whole screen. Stationary images
or images that only partially ll the screen
(leaving black or colored bars to ll the screen),
when used over extended periods of time or
when viewed repeatedly may cause uneven
aging of the phosphors and leave subtle
ghosts of the stationary images in the picture.
Still or stationary images may be received
from broadcasters, cable channels, satellite
channels, DVD discs, video tapes, laser
discs, on-line services, web/Internet
searching devices, video games, and digital
TV tuner/converter boxes. Examples of these
types of images can be, but are not limited to
the following:
Letterbox top/bottom black bars:
shown at the top and bottom of the TV
screen when you watch a widescreen
(16:9) movie on a standard (4:3) TV.
Side bar images: solid bars shown
on each side of an image when
watching a standard (4:3) program on
a widescreen (16:9) TV.
Stock-market report bars: ticker
running at the bottom of the TV
screen.
Shopping channel logos & pricing
displays: bright graphics that are
shown constantly or repeatedly in the
same location.
Video game patterns and scoreboards
Bright station logos: moving or
low-contrast graphics are less likely
to cause uneven aging of the picture
tubes.
Online (Internet) websites: or any other
stationary or repetitive computer style
images.

System 4 Home Theater IR Control (WS-55411, WS-65411 and WS-73411 ONLY)
The Mitsubishi Home Theater IR System
Control is a special feature that makes it easier
to use your TV with a Mitsubishi digital A/V
receiver. Once your equipment is properly
connected and set up, your TV and Mitsubishi
digital A/V receiver will change inputs together,
to match high resolution pictures with the proper
surround sound. See How Connections Affect
the System 4 Home Theater IR Control, Pages
14-15, for installation instructions.
When you change inputs on your TV to watch
different video products, your TV will send
signals via the infrared emitter to your Mitsubishi
digital A/V receiver and will also change inputs
to hear the sound from that product. You
will automatically hear the high quality digital
surround sound from digital products like your
DTV receiver and DVD, and high quality analog
stereo or surround sound from non-digital
products like your VCR.
As you change TV inputs, the A/V receiver
changes its source for sound.

Expand (480i / 480p)- enlarges the picture, cropping some of the image at the top and bottom.
The Expand format is useful to reduce the letterbox top and bottom bars of non-Anamorphic
DVDs or to correct narrow 4:3 images that have been stretched in the Standard format.
Note: This format is not available in the 1080i format.
Expand (1080i) - enlarges the picture, cropping some of the image on both sides. This Expand
format is useful to remove or reduce black side bars on HD broadcasts of 4:3 images with
black bars (See page 63).
Zoom - enlarges the picture, cropping some of the image at each side, top and bottom. The
Zoom format is useful to remove or reduce the black top and bottom bars on Anamorphic
DVDs with 2.35:1 aspect ratio.
Note: This format is not available in the 1080i signal.
Stretched - is the default format for ANT-A and Ant-B, and Inputs 1-3. The Stretched format
stretches narrow 4:3 images across the screen, however, there is less stretch in the center
than the sides. The Stretched format allows the entire narrow image to be displayed across
the screen, however, there is less distortion in the center than in the sides.
Note: This format is not available in the 1080i signal.
Display Formats (16:9)
Narrow format displays narrow 4:3 images in their original shape and adds stationary gray side
bars to ll the screen. Note: This format is not available in the 1080i signal.
