Example of Antenna Grounding as per NEC - National Electric Code

Note to the CATV system installer: This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer's attention to Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides

guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.

Rev. 8/13/01

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

1. Read these instructions.

2. Keep these instructions.

3. Heed all warnings.

4. Follow all instructions.

5. Do not use this apparatus near water.

6. Clean only with a dry cloth.

7. Do not block any of the ventilation openings. Install in

accordance with the manufacturers instructions.

8. Do not install near any heat sources such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other apparatus (including amplifiers) that produce heat.

9. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the polarized or grounding-type plug. Apolarized plug has two blades with one wider than the other. A grounding type plug has two blades and third grounding prong. The wide blade or third prong are provided for your safety. When the provided plug does not fit into your outlet, consult an electrician for replacement of the obsolete outlet.

10. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched particularly at plugs, convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the apparatus.

11. Only use attachments/accessories specified by the manufacturer.

12. Use only with a cart, stand, tripod, bracket, or table

specified by the manufacturer, or sold with the ap-

p- paratus. When a cart is used, use caution when moving the cart/apparatus combination to avoid injury from tip-over.

13. Unplug this apparatus during lightning storms or when unused for long periods of time.

14. Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. Servicing is required when the apparatus has been damaged in any way, such as power-supply cord or plug is damaged, liquid has been spilled or objects have fallen into apparatus, the apparatus has been exposed to rain or moisture, does not operate normally, or has been dropped.

15. This product may contain lead and mercury. Disposal of these materials may be regulated due to environmental considerations. For disposal or recycling information, please contact your local authorities or the Electronic Industries

Alliance: www.eiae.org

16. Damage Requiring Service - The appliance should be serviced by qualified service personnel when:

A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged;

B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the

FEATURES

Your new projection television and its packaging contain materials that can be recycled and reused. Specialized companies can recycle your product to increase the amount of reusable materials and minimize the amounts that need to be properly disposed. The batteries used by your product should not be thrown away when depleted but should be handed in and disposed of as small chemical waste. Please find out about the local regulations concerning how to dispose of your old television, batteries, and packaging materials whenever it is time to replace them.

End-of-life Disposal

Active Control™ continuously measures and corrects all incoming signals to provide the best picture settings. This feature provides a sharp and virtually noise-free picture any time, from any NTSC source. NTSC is the

National Television Standards Committee format devised in the 1940s for TV broadcast analog video signals (525 lines: 30 Hz). Alternate Channel (A/CH) button allows you to switch back and forth between the currently viewed channel and the previously viewed channel. Automatic Phosphor Aging Compensation (APAC) works with the set’s Automatic Format feature to prevent screen burn left by nonmoving images. Periodically, APAC automatically shifts your television picture in very small increments, but in increments large enough to blur image retention. APAC is like a screen saver for your TV. Audio/video jacks allow direct connections with VCRs and other accessories for quality TV picture and sound playback. Component video input jacks are provided for high-fidelity color and picture resolution when using digital video source material, such as a DVD. Audio Volume Leveler (AVL) control keeps the TV’s sound at an even level. Peaks and valleys that occur during program changes or commercial breaks are reduced, making for a more consistent, comfortable sound. AutoChron™ automatically sets the right time of day and maintains it with digital precision through brownouts, power failures, and even Daylight Savings Time adjustments. AutoLock™ protects young children from objectionable programming with V-chip technology. Automatic Format automatically detects the incoming signal’s format and adjusts it to fill the screen. Also, your remote control has a Format button that allows you to select the picture format you want to see. AutoPicture™ allows you to push a button and adapt your TV’s picture to various types of programs, such as sports, movies, and multimedia (games). AutoSound™ allows you to select from three factory-set controls and a personal control that you set according to your own preferences through the on-screen Sound submenu. The three factory-set controls—Voice, Music, and Theatre—enable you to tailor the TV sound to enhance the particular programming you are watching. AutoSurf™ allows you to easily switch among only the channels that are of interest to you. You can program up to 10 channels into the TV’s AutoSurf™ memory through the on-screen display. Closed Captioning allows you to read TV program dialog or voice conversations as on-screen text.

Virtual Dolby* Surround (referred to as “Dolby Virtual”in the on-screen submenu) uses two speakers to simulate the surround

effect produced by a multichannel system. Dynamic Contrast helps you sharpen the picture quality by making the contrast between the dark and bright picture areas more noticeable as the image on screen changes. Eye Fidelity gives you a choice between two different picturescanning techniques—progressive and interlaced. Progressive scan doubles the number of visible picture lines per field by displaying all picture frame lines at once, eliminating line flicker. The interlaced mode provides for a double vertical display (interlaced) of progressive scan, which reduces annoying motion artifacts. The interlaced mode also helps smooth out jagged lines sometimes seen on curved and angled surfaces. HD DVI and Component Inputs—DVI supports High-definition Copy Protected digital video input for connection to compliant settop boxes. The component connection (Y Pb Pr or RGB +HV) offers color purity, crisp color detail, and reduced color noise.

Hi-fi stereo system, including a built-in audio amplifier and a twin speaker system. The system enables you to hear stereo sound or Second Audio Program (SAP) bilingual broadcasts when they are available. Home-cinema universal remote control operates your TV set and other devices that work by infrared remote control, such as VCRs, cable converter boxes, satellite receivers, and others. Note: You may need to program the remote to work with devices other than the TV. See pages 18–23. Incredible Surround™ enhances stereo programs by making the sound broader and fuller. Multipoint Digital Convergence (35 point) brings the accuracy of digital technology for flawless convergence of red, green, and blue tubes. This allows the viewer to adjust as preferred to create a superb picture with minimized colored haloes. On-screen menu shows the TV controls and allows you adjust or set those controls (can be viewed in American English, French, or Spanish). Program List displays a list of your favorite channels at the press of a button. You can scroll through the list, highlight a favorite channel, and tune to the channel. Protective screen filter helps prevent accidental damage to the delicate front lenticular screen. This protective filter has been formulated for HD displays to give the best picture and still protect your investment. Sleep Timer automatically turns the TV off after a set amount of time of your choice. Standard broadcast (VHF/UHF) or cable TV (CATV) channel capability, as well as advanced capability for high-definition video. Three-line digital comb filter provides improved chroma/luminance separation to the picture. Offering vertical-edge enhancement and virtually no “dot crawl,” this filter easily supports the demands of DVD players and other advanced high-resolution video sources. Two-tunerPicture-in-picture (PIP) allows you to tune to a program in the main window and scan other channels in the PIP window. From a single antenna or cable input, signals are separated into two signals within the television, so no external splitter is required for PIP. The AV1, AV2, and AV3 inputs are also available as PIP sources.

DVI Jack Cable used: DVI

Allows encrypted transmissions of uncompressed HD content.

Component Video Input Jacks Cables used: component video or A/V with RCA-type phono plugs

Allow you to connect accessory devices such as DVD players. Separating the video into three signals, these inputs provide excellent quality. Be sure to connect the left and right audio cables, because the Y, Pb, Pr jacks receive only the picture signal.

S-Video Jacks Cable used: S-Video

Provide a higher quality picture than the Video (composite) jacks because the color part of the picture is separated from the black and white portion. Be sure to connect the left and right audio cables, because the S-Video jacks receive only the picture signal.

Video (called composite) Jacks Cable used:A/V with RCA-type phono plug

Provide better picture performance than the antenna RF input. Be sure to connect the audio cables, because the video jacks receive only the picture signal.

Audio Jacks Cables used:A/V with RCA-type phono plug

Provide sound for the video inputs. If your accessory device has only one output for audio, connect it to the left (color coded white) audio jack on the TV.

Antenna RF Jack

Cables used: RF coaxial cable (75Ω)

Allows you to connect an antenna, cable TV, or components having only RF outputs to the antenna input on the TV. RF coaxial cables are available in push-on or screw-on type.

Signal Splitter

Allows you to route an antenna or cable TV signal to two inputs.

300- to 75-ohm Twin-lead Adapter

Accepts twin-lead wires from an antenna and allows connection to the antenna input on the TV. If your antenna is already equipped with an RF coaxial cable, you will not need this adapter.

Examples of sources for such signals are a progressivescan DVD player (480p) or an HD receiver (1080i or 480p) with YPbPr or RGB outputs. The 1080i signals will provide you with the best picture possible. Devices with RGB outputs may or may not have H and V sync outputs to connect to the HD INPUT-AV 4 H and V SYNC inputs (see page 57). Instructions for selecting the HD INPUT-AV 4 and AV 5 color space (YPbPr or RGB) are on page 59.

• Among the 480i-compatible inputs (ANTENNA IN 75Ω, INPUT AV-1, INPUT AV-2, and the side jack panel), you will get the best picture from the component video inputs (labeled YPbPr). The S-Video inputs will provide the next-best level of picture quality.

What You Can Connect to the

High-definition Input Jacks

HD INPUT-AV 4—use to connect digital equipment with a 1080i or a 480p signal output, such as HD receivers (1080i or 480p) or DVD players with progressive-scan capability (480p). You can connect equipment with YPbPr component video or RGB outputs to the HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks. H and V sync connections may or may not be required for RGB connections. (See page 59.) Dedicated audio input jacks are located with the HD INPUT-AV 4 video jacks.

NOTE: The Picture-in-Picture (PIP) feature is not available for use with AV 4.

HD INPUT-AV 5—use to connect digital equipment with DVI (digital video interface) 1080i or 480p output. DVI is a specific digital input allowing encrypted transmission of uncompressed HD content. DVI includes HDCP (high-bandwidth digital content protection), which is supported by the motion picture industry, satellite providers, and most of the consumer electronics industry. DVI is gaining momentum and quickly becoming an industry standard for the consumer to view high-definition material while keeping content protected.

NOTE: The Picture-in-Picture (PIP) feature is not available for use with AV5.

• The TV’s default color-space setting for HD INPUT-AV 4 is YPbPr. If the picture looks grossly incorrect, try changing the color-space setting on either the digital equipment or the TV. For more information on setting the color space on the digital equipment, see the equipment’s directions-for-use manual. To set the TV’s color space, see page 59 in this manual.

• This television is designed to be compatible with high-definition signal standards 1080i and 480p as specified by the Electronic Industries Association standard EIA770.3. Because output standards may vary by manufacturer, you may encounter some digital equipment that will not properly display pictures on the TV.

• The PIP (Picture-in-picture) feature

allows you to tune to a program in the main window and scan other channels in the PIP window. From a single antenna or cable input, signals are separated into two signals within the television. The A V1, AV2, and AV3 inputs are also available as PIP sources.

CONNECTING A STANDARD DVD PLAYER

omponent video inputs allow the highest pos-

sible color and picture resolution in the playback of digital signals, such as those of DVD players. The color difference signals (Pb, Pr) and the luminance (Y) signal are connected and received separately. The result is better color bandwidth information than is possible with composite video (labeled VIDEO on your TV’s jack panel) or S-Video connections.

To make the connections shown in this example, you will need:

• three cables for video connections (standard

RCA-type phono plugs)

• two cables for audio connections (standard

RCA-type phono plugs).

NOTE: The cables are not supplied with your TV. You should be able to buy them at most stores that sell electronics. Or you can call our Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.

Connect the YPbPr (component) VIDEO OUT jacks from the DVD player to the INPUT-AV 1 YPbPr (component video) jacks on the back of the TV. NOTE: The INPUT -AV 1 YPbPr jacks will accept 480i (interlaced) output signals only.The connection example on this

page assumes the use of a DVD player with interlaced output. Some DVD players, however, have YPbPr outputs that can be switched between interlaced and progressive scan. If you are attempting to use a DVD player with progressive-scan (480p output) capability to make the connection shown in this example, you must be sure to switch the DVD player to interlaced. If necessary, refer to the DVD player’s directions-for-use manual for help. If you want to use the DVD player in progressive-scan mode, you must use the HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks (see page 13).

Connect the AUDIOOUT L(eft) and R(ight) jacks from the DVD player to the INPUT-AV 1 AUDIO jacks on the back of the TV.

Press the AV button on the remote control as many times as necessary to select the CVI (component video input) source on the TV.

Turn the DVD player on and press PLAY to view the DVD program on the TV.

• T o simplify making connections, the plugs on audio and video cables are often color coded. The jacks on your TV are likewise color coded to match the plugs.

• The names for the component video jacks may differ depending on the DVD player or accessory digital source equipment used. For example, besides YPbPr, you may see R-Y/B-Y/Y; or CrCbY. Although abbreviations and terms may vary, the letters Band R stand for the blue and red color component signals, respectively, and Yindicates the luminance signal. If necessary, refer to the directions-for-use manual for your DVD or digital accessory for more information.

• You can also connect a satellite receiver to the TV in a manner similar to the example shown on this page. If you connect a satellite receiver to the TV, you will need to use the receiver’s channel-memorization system to store channels in the receiver’s memory.

• If you experience difficulties receiving sound with a DVD disc, check the sound settings through the DVD disc’s menu.

• The CVI source cannot be displayed in the PIP window. See page 7 in the Quick Use and Setup Guide for more on the PIP feature.

LAYER WITH PROGRESSIVE-SCAN CAPABILITY

• If after connecting your DVD player your display is filled with wavy lines, it may be that your DVD player is not set to progressive-scan mode. Some DVD players have an I/P (interlaced/progressive scan) switch located on the back or front of the players for changing from interlaced to progressive-scan mode. Other DVD players may allow the mode to be changed by pressing a button on the DVD player’s remote control or by using the DVD player’s on-screen menu. If the

interlaced/progressive-scan selection option is provided only through the DVD on-screen menu, you will need to connect the DVD player to another AV input source in addition to HD INPUT-AV 4 to see the DVD menu. Select this additional AV source on screen to see the DVD menu and choose progressive-scan mode. You will then be able to see the DVD picture through the AV4 source.

• Some DVD players have dedicated progressive-scan output jacks that are labeled as such and require no switching to provide a picture through the HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks. See your DVD player’s directions-for-use manual for information.

• The default color-space setting for the HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks is YPbPr. RGB is also an option. If the picture’s color looks grossly incorrect, try changing either the DVD player’s or TV’s color-space setting. See the DVD player’s directions-for-use manual for information on setting its color space. Or see page 59 in this manual to set the TV’s color space.

ECEIVER TO THE HD INPUT-AV 4 JACKS

• HD receivers will supply stereo sound to the TV only through the audio left and right cables, not through the coaxial cable.

• Making a standard connection along with the HD connection as shown in the example (S-VIDEO) on this page will allow you to see the receiver’s on-screen menu and a picture (valid signal) from the receiver should it be switched to SD mode.

• The HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks are for standard RCA-type phono plugs. Your HD receiver may use RCA or BNC output jacks. If your HD receiver comes with BNC jacks, you will need to purchase BNC-toRCA adapters to connect the receiver to the TV. You should be able to purchase these adapters at most stores that sell electronics. Or you can call our Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.

• The HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks are compatible with some digital equipment having RGB outputs with “sync on green” or RGB with “separate H and V sync.” Output standards for digital equipment, however, may vary by manufacturer. No industry standards have been established for HD television RGB signal systems, timing, synchronization, and signal strengths. If the digital equipment you want to connect to your TV offers both component video and RGB outputs, component video is the suggested connection to use.

• The default color-space setting for the HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks is YPbPr. RGB is also an option. If the picture color looks grossly incorrect, try changing either the receiver’s or TV’s color space. See the receiver’s directions-for-use manual for information on setting its color space. Or see page 59 in this manual for setting the TV’s AV4 color space.

• AV4 and AV5 do not function with the PIP feature. They cannot be displayed in the PIP window, nor can the PIP window be displayed when those signal sources are being viewed on the main screen.

he side panel jacks provide a convenient way

for you to connect a camcorder to your TV. The side panel jacks are recognized by your TV as AV3.

You can obtain S-VIDEO quality with an S-VHS, Hi-8, or digital camcorder by connecting to the S-VIDEO input instead of the VIDEO (composite) input.

To make the connections shown in this example, you will need:

• an S-VIDEO cable

• two cables for audio connections (standard

RCA-type phono plugs).

NOTE: The cables are not supplied with your TV. You should be able to buy them at most stores that sell electronics. Or you can call our Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.

Connect from the S-VIDEO output on the camcorder to the S-VIDEO input in the TV’s side panel.

Connect from the AUDIO outputs on the camcorder to the side panel AUDIO L(eft) and R(ight) inputs.

Press the AV button on the remote control as many times as necessary to select the AV3 source on the TV for the viewing of materials from your camcorder.

PROGRAMMING THE

TV REMOTE TO WORK ACCESSORY DEVICES

our TV remote is capable of working not

only your TV but also other infrared remote (IR) controlled accessory devices such as VCRs, cable TV converter boxes, satellite receivers, DVD players, and laserdisc players.

If you want to use your TV remote to operate a VCR or other accessory devices, you will need to perform the initial check explained in this section. You may also need to go to the sections on the “Code-entry Method” and the “Search Method” in the pages that follow.

Press the VCR orACC(essory) mode button on the TV remote for the desired product category.

NOTE: Pressing the VCR mode button

allows access to product codes for VCRs. Pressing the ACC(essory) mode button allows access to the product codes for cable TV converters, satellite receivers, DVD players, and laser-disc players.

Point the TV remote toward the desired accessory device and press the POWER button.

Does the remote turn the accessory device on?

If yes, stop and try other function but-

tons on the TV remote. With a VCR, for example, try the Play, Stop, and Rewind buttons, for example. (See page 23 for information on how the remote buttons correspond with accessory device functions.) If they also work the accessory device, then the remote is ready and no further steps are needed.

If not, do the following: Look up a four-digit remote code

number on pages 21 or 22 for your

brand of accessory device. Then go through the simple steps for entering a four-digit code as explained on page 19.

Using the Remote Control

If more than one four-digit code number is listed, you may have to try more than the first number given to locate your component’s correct code.

USING THE CODE-ENTRY METHOD TO PROGRAM YOUR TV REMOTE

ow that you have looked up the four-

digit remote-control Direct-entry Code for your brand of accessory device, you are ready to follow the simple steps shown below to program your TV remote.

Please read through all the steps before beginning.

First, press and hold down the VCR or ACC (for an accessory device other than a VCR) mode button on the TV remote. Then press and hold

down the MENU/SELECT button at the same time for a brief moment. Release the buttons. The TV remote back light will switch on. NOTE: For correct operation, you must first press and hold the mode button and then press and hold the MENU/SELECT button simultaneously.

Within 30 seconds of pressing the VCR (or ACC) button and MENU/SELECT button, enter a four-digit code for the accessory device (see pages 21 and 22).

If you make a mistake while attempting to enter the four-digit code and want to start again, press any button other than one with a number. Then return to step 1 to begin again.

Point the remote at the accessory device. Then press the POWER button

on the remote to turn the device on.

Using the Remote Control

• If you do not enter a complete code within 30 seconds, you will need to perform step 1 of the Code-entry Method again.

• If you enter more than four digits, the unit will retain the first four digits entered.

• If the procedure explained above does not

work the first time, repeat the steps using the same remote code number.

• If after a second try the remote does not

operate your accessory device, and more code numbers are listed for your brand, use the next listed code number.

• If after repeated attempts the Entry-code

Method does not allow you to work your accessory device with your TV remote, try the Search Method explained on the next page.

USING THE S

EARCH METHOD TO PROGRAM YOUR TV REMOTE

our TV remote can be set to work various

accessory devices (VCRs, cable converters, and satellite receivers, for example) by what is called the Search Method.

NOTE: The Search Method works only with devices equipped with channel-display indicators on the devices themselves or the ability to show channel numbers on the TV screen. If the Code-entry Method (shown in the previous section) did not enable your TV remote to work your accessory device, then follow the easy steps listed below. Please read the steps once before performing them.

Turn on the desired device. Press and hold down the VCR orACC (for an accessory device other than a VCR) mode button on the TV remote. Then press and hold down

the SURF button as you hold down the desired mode (VCR or ACC) button.

NOTE: For correct operation, you must press and hold down the desired mode (VCR or ACC) button first and then press and hold down the SURF button second.

While holding down the SURF and the desired mode (VCR orACC) buttons simultaneously, point the remote toward the accessory device and continue holding the buttons down.

Watch the Channel Indicator on your accessory device. Channel num-

bers will scan up when the TV remote has identified the correct code for your accessory device. This may take several minutes.

Release the mode (VCR or ACC) and SURF buttons as soon as channel numbers start to scan up. The

scanning means that your TV remote has found the code for your accessory device.

NOTE:

If no channel change happens

after several minutes, repeat steps 1 and

2. Then if a channel change still does not occur, the remote will not work with the desired accessory device.

Using the Remote Control

• The remote’s back light will blink as the remote moves through its product code list. After the remote identifies the product code for your accessory device and you release the remote buttons, the back light will blink twice.

• Your TVremote may locate the accessory device’s code quickly or within several minutes.

• Don’t let the accessory device scan up more than five channels when the correct code is found— the remote may pass up the right code and have to repeat the search cycle.
