Your new TV

1.1

EasyLink

With

EasyLink

you can operate a connected device, like a Bluray

Disc player, with the remote control of the TV. EasyLink uses HDMI CEC to communicate with the connected

devices.

Setting up

2.1

Read safety

Read the safety instructions first before you use the TV. In Help, go to

Safety and care

Safety

2.2

TV stand and wall mounting

TV stand

You can find the instructions for mounting the TV stand in the Quick Start Guide that came with the TV. In case you lost this guide, you can download it from www.philips.com

Use the product type number of the TV to look for the Quick Start Guide to download.

Wall mounting

Your TV is also prepared for a VESA-compliant wall mount bracket (sold separately). Use the following VESA code when purchasing the wall mount . . .

To fix the bracket securely, use screws with a length indicated in the drawing.

- 40PFT5509 - VESA MIS-F 200x200, M6

- 48PFT5509 - VESA MIS-F 400x200, M6

- 50PFT5509 - VESA MIS-F 400x200, M6

- 55PFT5509 - VESA MIS-F 400x400, M6

Caution

Wall mounting the TV requires special skills and should only be performed by qualified personnel. The TV wall mounting should meet safety standards according to the TV's weight. Also read the safety precautions before positioning the TV. TP Vision Europe B.V. bears no responsibility for improper

mounting or any mounting that results in accident or injury.

2.3

Tips on placement

- Position the TV where light does not shine directly on the screen.

- Position the TV up to 15 cm away from the wall.

- The ideal distance to watch TV is 3 times its diagonal screen size. When seated, your eyes should be level with the centre of the screen.

2.4

Power cable

- Insert the power cable into the

POWER

connector on the

back of the TV.

- Make sure the power cable is securely inserted in the connector.

- Make sure that the power plug, in the wall socket, is accessible at all times.

- When you unplug the power cable, always pull the plug, never pull the cable.

Although this TV has a very low standby power consumption, unplug the power cable to save energy if you do not use the TV for a long period of time.

2.5

Antenna cable

Insert the antenna plug firmly into the

ANTENNA

socket at the

back of the TV. You can connect your own antenna or an antenna signal from

an antenna distribution system. Use an IEC Coax 75 Ohm RF antenna connector.

Use this antenna connection for DVB-T and DVB-C input signals.

Connections

3.1

Tips on connections

Connectivity guide

Always connect a device to the TV with the highest quality connection available. Also, use good quality cables to ensure a good transfer of picture and sound.

If you need help to connect several devices to the TV, you can visit the Philips TV connectivity guide. The guide offers information on how to connect and which cables to use.

Go to

www.connectivityguide.philips.com

Antenna

If you have a Set-top box (a digital receiver) or Recorder, connect the antenna cables to run the antenna signal >through the Set-top box and/or Recorder first before it enters the TV. In this way, the antenna and the Set-top box can send possible additional channels to the Recorder to record.

HDMI

HDMI CEC

An HDMI connection has the best picture and sound quality. One HDMI cable combines video and audio signals. Use an HDMI cable for High Definition (HD) or Full HD (FHD) TV signals. For best signal quality transfer, use a High speed HDMI cable and do not use an HDMI cable longer than 5 m.

EasyLink HDMI CEC

If your devices are connected with HDMI and have EasyLink, you can operate them with the TV remote control. EasyLink HDMI CEC must be switched On on the TV and the connected device.

DVI to HDMI

Use a DVI to HDMI adapter if your device only has a DVI connection. Use one of the HDMI connections and add an Audio L/R cable (mini-jack 3.5mm) to Audio In for sound, on the back of the TV.

Copy protection

DVI and HDMI cables support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection). HDCP is a copy protection signal that prevents copying content from a DVD disc or Blu-ray Disc. Also referred to as DRM (Digital Rights Management).

HDMI ARC

HDMI 1 connections on the TV have HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel). If the device, typically a Home Theatre Sysytem (HTS), also has the HDMI ARC connection, connect it to HDMI 1 on this TV. With the HDMI ARC connection, you do not need to connect the extra audio cable that sends the sound of the TV picture to the HTS. The HDMI ARC connection combines both signals.

In case you prefer to switch off ARC on the HDMI connections, press and select

Setup

and press OK.

Select

TV settings

Sound

HDMI 1 - ARC

Y Pb Pr - Audio L R

Y Pb Pr - Component Video is a high quality connection. The YPbPr connection can be used for High Definition (HD) TV signals. Next to the Y, Pb and Pr signals add the Audio Left and Right signals for sound.

CVBS - Audio L R

CVBS - Composite Video is a good quality connection. Next to the CVBS signal adds the Audio Left and Right signals for sound.

Audio Out - Optical

Audio Out - Optical is a high quality sound connection. This optical connection can carry 5.1 audio channels. If your device, typically a Home Theatre System (HTS), has no HDMI ARC connection, you can use this connection with the Audio In Optical connection on the HTS. The Audio Out - Optical connection sends the sound from the TV to the HTS.

You can set the type of the audio out signal to fit the audio capabilities of your Home Theatre System.

If the sound does not match the video on screen, you can adjust the audio to video synchronisation.

3.2

EasyLink HDMI CEC

EasyLink

With EasyLink you can operate a connected device with the TV remote control. EasyLink uses HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) to communicate with the connected devices. Devices must support HDMI CEC and must be connected with an HDMI connection.

EasyLink setup

The TV comes with EasyLink switched on. Make sure that all HDMI CEC settings are properly set up on the connected EasyLink devices. EasyLink might not work with devices from other brands.

HDMI CEC on other brands

The HDMI CEC functionality has different names on different brands. Some examples are: Anynet, Aquos Link, Bravia Theatre Sync, Kuro Link, Simplink and Viera Link. Not all brands are fully compatible with EasyLink.

Example HDMI CEC branding names are property of their respective owners.

HDMI ARC

If your Home Theatre System has an HDMI ARC connection, you can use any HDMI connection on the TV to connect. With HDMI ARC, you do not need to connect the extra audio cable. The HDMI ARC connection combines both signals.

If the Home Theatre System has no HDMI ARC connection, add an optical audio cable to send the sound of the TV picture to the Home Theatre System.

Audio to video synchronisation (sync)

If the sound does not match the video on screen, you can set a delay on most Home Theatre Systems with a disc player to match the sound with the video.

Audio Out settings

Audio Out delay

With a Home Theatre System (HTS) connected to the TV, the picture on TV and the sound from the HTS should be synchronised.

Automatic audio to video sync
