(Figure 2)

IR Emitter-Home Theater Control

These emitters are not IR repeaters, but instead used by

the NetCommand feature to control supported devices.

a: Connect the IR emitter to IR EMITTER-

HOME THEATER CONTROL on the TV back panel.

IR Emitter-Repeater

These emitters are not used by NetCommand, but will

repeat any IR command received by the TV. These emitters allow the TV to be the remote control sensor for other devices that are outside of the range of the handheld remote control. Do not use these repeaters with devices that can receive the remote control signal directly, as the signals can interfere with each other.

b: Connect the IR emitter to IR EMITTER-

REPEATER on the TV back panel.

Figure 2. Connecting the IR Home Theater Control and/or Repeater.

THEN

Place the IR emitter cable under or along

the side of the A/V device. Place the IR

lens directly in front of the A/V device’s

infrared signal receiver. Infrared signal

receivers are usually behind the front trans-

lucent panel of the device.

Place unused transmitters in an out-of-the-

way location.

For permanent installation of the IR emitter

cable, use the included adhesive tape to secure the bottom of the emitter to the

anchoring object of your choice.

Part II: Installation

Warning: Do not leave stationary, toolbar, or partial 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 VGA capability of this television is

designed for occasional use ONLY.

It is not meant to be used as a work station or to view static or odd-shaped images for an extended period of time. Any device connected to your television via the VGA port, including, but not limited to, personal computer, game system, or digital set-top box, must have its screen saver function activated to prevent damage to the television. We DO NOT recommend the use of any external device that does not have a screen saver function with this television.

We recommend that screen saver activation time be set to less than ve

minutes when using a device through the VGA port. You should also use lower brightness and contrast settings. If your computer programs allow, toolbars should be set to hidden mode.

Please remember that most computer programs and video game systems display static images, such as boxes, buttons, tool bars, and game scores that can damage the television if used for extended periods of time, repeatedly, or frequently.

The VGA input will automatically select

the “Standard” screen format and ll the screen. No other formats are available with the VGA Input. Standard television overscan is used, so VGA images will be cropped on all sides. Resizing of some displays may be required. Consult your owner’s manual for computers, computer programs and game systems for assistance with resizing display images. Please see page 70 for an explanation of uneven picture tube aging.
