Connect devices

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.

SimplyShare

The TV uses the SimplyShare protocol to find and open files on
other devices in your network, like your computer. You can
use a computer with a Microsoft Windows XP, Vista or
Windows 7, Mac OSX or Linux operating system.

8 Setting up / Connect devices

HDMI

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) TV signals. For bes t signal
quality transfer, 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.
In Help, press L List and look up EasyLink HDMI CEC for
more information on using EasyLink.

HDMI ARC

All of the HDMI connections on the TV have ARC (Audio
Return Channel).
If the device, typically a Home Theatre System (HTS), also has
the HDMI ARC connection, connect it to any of the HDMI
connections 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.
You can use any HDMI connection on this TV to connect the
HTS but ARC is only available for 1 device/connection at a
time.

In case you prefer to switch off ARC on the HDMI
connections, pres s h and select S Setup and press OK.
Select TV settings > Sound > Advanced > HDMI ARC.

DVI to HDMI

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

Copy protection

DVI and HDMI cables s upport 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).

Y Pb Pr
Component Video YPbPr 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.

Use the supplied YPbPr adapter cable to connect your device.
Match the YPbPr (green, blue, red) connector colours with the
cable plugs when you connect.
Use a Audio L/R cinch to mini-jack (3.5mm) adapter cable (not
supplied) if your device also has sound.

SCART
SCART is a good quality connection. The SCART connection

can be used for CVBS and RGB video signals but cannot be
used for High Definition (HD) TV signals. The SCART
connection combines video and audio signals.

Use the supplied SCART adapter cable to connect your
device.

Audio Out - Optical
Audio Out - Optical is a high quality sound connection. This

optical connection can carry 5.1 audio channels. If your audio
device, typically a Home Theatre System (HTS), has no HDMI
ARC connection, you can connect this sound cable to an
Audio In - Optical connection on the HTS. This Audio cable
will send the sound of the TV to the HTS.

Setting up / Connect devices 9

You can set the type of the audio out signal to fit the audio
capabilities of your Home Theatre System.
In Help, press L List and look up Audio Out settings for
more information.

HTS with a built-in disc player.

Alternatively, you can use a SCART cable if the device has no
HDMI connection.

HDMI ARC

If your Home Theatre System has an HDMI ARC connection,
you can use any HDMI connection on the TV to connect. All
HDMI connections on the TV can offer the Audio Return
Channel (ARC) signal. But once you connected the Home
Theatre System, the TV can only send the ARC signal to this
HDMI connection.
With HDMI AR C, 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)

stop moving.
In Help, press L List and look up Audio to video sync for
more information.

Audio to video sync

With a Home Theatre System (HTS ) connected to the TV,

5.5

Health warning

• If you or your family have a history of epilepsy or

photosensitive seizures, consult a medical professional before
exposing yourself to flashing light sources, rapid image
sequences or 3D viewing.

• To avoid discomfort such as dizziness, headache or
disorientation, we recommend not watching 3D for extended
periods of time.

If you experience any discomfort, stop watching 3D and do
not immediately engage in any potentially hazardous activity
(for example driving a car) until your symptoms have
disappeared. If symptoms persist, do not resume watching
3D without consulting a medical professional first.

• Parents should monitor their children during 3D viewing and

ensure they do not experience any discomfort as mentioned
above. Watching 3D is not recommended for children under 6
years of age as their visual system is not fully developed yet.

• Do not use the 3D glasses for any purpose other than
watching 3D TV.

5.6

Care of the 3D glasses

• Do not expose the 3D glasses to direct sunlight, heat, fire or

water. This may result in a product malfunction or fire.

• Use a clean soft cloth (microfiber or cotton flannel) to clean
the lenses to avoid scratching them. Never spray cleaner
directly onto the 3D glasses. This may damage the electronics.

• Do not drop, bend or apply force to the lenses of the 3D
glasses.

• Do not use cleaning chemicals containing alcohol, solvent,
surfactant, or wax, benzene, thinner, mosquito repellent or
lubricant. Using these chemicals can cause discoloration or
cracks.
