INTRODUCTION

Your Philips Institutional Television tuning system is set to operate in either "Consumer" or "Commercial" type product modes. In the
Consumer mode the tuning system operates as a standard TV, allowing normal initial power ON, channel selection, and volume control
(as well as a variety of select Menu features). Use the supplied remote control to adjust the TV in the Consumer mode. Refer to the
"On-Screen Features (Consumer)" section in this manual for descriptions on the use and operation of Consumer mode Menu controls.
Use a T374AH (RG4172-BK03) remote with its TV Setup, Guest, and Data Communication Mode capabilities to set the TV for the
various Commercial mode settings. (Note: On some select Institutional TV models you may also be able to use the buttons at the set to
select a Setup Mode. Again, this may not apply or be available on your current model. Commercial setup and verification procedures
may be performed which are backward compatible with previous Commercial chassis setup remotes. (See T374AH Remote Control
Instructions, part # IB7166E002, for specific operating details.)

Within the TV SETUP MENU (as selected with the T374AH
remote control) use the “PROPLUS SETUP MENU ­ACCESS LEVEL” control to place the television in either the
CONSUMER, COMMERCIAL, LOCKED, or UNLOCKED
mode.

When CONSUMER is the selected mode, the TV functions
as a standard consumer television (Philips RC-5 system) and
accepts standard remote control commands. Events are
ignored and the television is used for normal TV viewing (in
place of any commercial /professional special event applica­tions).

When UNLOCKED is the selected mode, the TV functions
the same as in the Consumer Mode. When an event is active,
no menu is available unless the Setup Code or Setup Remote
is used. (Channel selection either is not allowed or is restrict­ed to the event channel ring - depending upon the event pro­gramming.)

When COMMERCIAL is the selected mode, the Consumer
menu is limited to three Menu items - CLOSED CAPTION
(CC); SLEEPTIMER; and V-CHIP SETUP. Channel selec­tion and tuning are also restricted to channels in the standard
channel ring. When an event is active, no menu is available
unless the Setup Code or Setup Remote is used. (Channel
selection either is not allowed or is restricted to the event
channel ring - depending upon the event programming.)

When LOCKED is the selected mode, the TV may be used
only during an event. If no event is active, the TV cannot be
turned ON (unless the Setup Code is used to enter the Setup
Menu or the Setup Remote is used). When an event is active,
no menu is available unless the Setup Code or Setup Remote
is used. (Channel selection either is not allowed or is restrict­ed to the event channel ring - depending upon the event pro­gramming.)

Note: Use of various Audio/Video connection jacks, or
other input modes on the rear of the set, is dependent on
whether the TV has a ProVideo Kit1 Expansion, or other
Smart Card Assembly, jackpanel installed. Please refer to
the separate setup and use information that will detail the
various Audio and Video connections possible with these
type modules. Also, please be aware that dependent upon
the type of Smart Card module installed with the set that
certain select “event” program features may be affected or
not be operable.

SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS - Read before operating equipment

This product was designed and manufactured to meet strict quality and
safety standards. There are, however, some installation and operation pre­cautions which you should be particularly aware of.

1. Read Instructions - All the safety and operating instructions should
be read before the appliance is operated.

2. Retain Instructions - The safety and operating instructions should
be retained for future reference.

3. Heed Warnings - All warnings on the appliance and in the operating
instructions should be adhered to.

4. Follow Instructions - All operating and use instructions should be
followed.

5. Water and Moisture - The appliance should not be used near water

- for example, near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, laundry tub,
in a wet basement or near a swimming pool, etc.

6. Carts and Stands - The appliance should be used only with a cart or
stand that is recommended by the manufacturer.

6A. An appliance and cart combination should be moved

with care. Quick stops, excessive force, and uneven sur­faces may cause the appliance and cart combination to
overturn.

6B. Tilt/Stability - All televisions must comply with recommended inter-

national global safety standards for tilt and stability properties of its
cabinet design.

• Do not compromise these design standards by applying exces-

sive pull force to the front, or top, of the cabinet which could
ultimately overturn the product.

• Also, do not endanger yourself, or children, by placing elec-

tronic equipment/toys on the top of the cabinet. Such items
could unsuspectingly fall from the top of the set and cause
product damage and/or personal injury.

7. Wall or Ceiling Mounting - The appliance should be mounted to a
wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

8. Ventilation - The appliance should be situated so that its location or
position does not interfere with its proper ventilation. For example,
the appliance should not be situated on a bed, sofa, rug, or similar
surface that may block the ventilation openings; or, placed in a built­in installation, such as a bookcase or cabinet that may impede the
flow of air through the ventilation openings.

9. Heat - The appliance should be situated away from heat sources
such as radiators, heat registers, stoves, or other appliances (includ­ing amplifiers) that produce heat.

10 . Power Sources - The appliance should be connected to a power sup-

ply only of the type described in the operating instructions or as
marked on the appliance.

11. Power-Cord Protection - Power supply cords should be routed so
that they are not likely to be walked on or pinched by items placed
upon or against them, paying particular attention to cords and plugs,
convenience receptacles, and the point where they exit from the
appliance.

12. Cleaning - The appliance should be cleaned only as recommended
by the manufacturer.

13. Power Lines - An outdoor antenna should be located away from
power lines.

14. Outdoor Antenna Grounding - If an outside antenna is connected to
the receiver, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to pro­vide some protection against voltage surges and built up static
charges.

Section 810 of the National Electric Code, ANSI/NFPA No. 70-1984,
provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mats
and supporting structure grounding of the lead-in wire to an anten­na discharge unit, size of grounding connectors, location of antenna­discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes and require­ments for the grounding electrode. See Fig. below.

15. Non-use Periods - The power cord of the appliance should be
unplugged from the outlet when left unused for a long period of time.

16 . Object and Liquid Entry - Care should be taken so that objects do not

fall and liquids are not spilled into the enclosure through openings.

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

A. The power supply cord or the plug has been damaged; or
B. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled into the appliance;

or

C. The appliance has been exposed to rain; or
D. The appliance does not appear to operate normally or exhibits a

marked change in performance; or

E. The appliance has been dropped, or the enclosure damaged.

18. Servicing - The user should not attempt to ser vice the appliance

beyond that described in the operating instructions. All other servic­ing should be referred to qualified service personnel.

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.

our Cable TV signal

may be a single (75
ohm) cable or a Cable
Converter Box installa­tion. In either case, the
connection to the TV is
easy.

CABLE INPUT/CONVERTER

If your Cable TV sig-

nal is a single round cable (75

ohm), you're ready to connect
to the TV. Go to step 2.

If you have a Cable
Converter Box: Connect the

Cable TV signal to the IN plug
on the Cable Converter Box.

Connect the Cable TV signal to

the 75Ω ANT/CABLE plug on the TV.

HOOKING UP YOUR TV

A

combination (outdoor

or indoor) antenna
receives normal broadcast
channels 2-13 (VHF) and
14-69 (UHF). Your con­nection to such an antenna
is easy since there is only
one antenna plug (75Ω
ANT/CABLE) on the back
of your TV - and that’s
where the antenna goes.

OUTDOOR/INDOOR

Remember,
set the TV for the
type signal you've
connected (see page

9).
Note: For homes

with separate UHF
and VHF antennas,
you will need an
optional combiner
to connect to the
TV. To order any
optional accessory,
contact your dealer
or call the toll-free
accessory ordering
number (1-800-851-

8885).

SMART

HELP

If your antenna has a

round cable (75 ohm) on the

end, then you're ready to con­nect it to the TV.

If your antenna has flat twin­lead wire (300 ohm), you first

need to attach the antenna wires
to the screws on a 300 to 75
ohm adapter.

Push the round end of the

adapter (or antenna) onto the
75Ω ANT/CABLE plug on the
rear of the TV. If the round end
of the antenna wire is threaded,
screw it down tight.

TIPS IF SOMETHING ISN'T WORKING

• Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10 seconds, then reinsert plug into
outlet and push POWER button again.

• Check to be sure outlet is not on a wall switch.

• Check MODE access in Setup Menu (see page 2) for correct operation mode. Also
check POWER ON and KEYBOARD controls for commercial users.

• Check antenna connections on the rear of the TV. Are they properly secured to the
antenna plug on the TV?

• Check the CABLE TUNING control for correct position. Check A/V MUTE, ACCESS
LEVEL, VIDEO BLANK, and EVENT MENU controls for correct setting in Setup
Menu for commercial users.

• Check INPUT (under CHANNEL INSTALLATION in CONSUMER mode) for correct
position. FRONT, AUX, or S-VIDEO positions without a supplied video signal source
will result in a blank screen.

• Check batteries. Replace with AA Heavy Duty (Zinc Chloride) or Alkaline batteries
if necessary.

• Clean the remote and the remote sensor window on the TV.

• Check the TV power cord. Unplug the TV, wait 10 seconds, then reinsert plug into
outlet and push POWER button again.

• Check to be sure TV outlet is not on a wall switch.

• Check the VOLUME buttons. Check AUDIO BLANK and MAX VOLin Setup
Menu for commercial users.

• Check the MUTE button on the remote control.

• Check the SPEAKER on-screen Menu control and EXTERNAL SPEAKER switch on
rear of TV. OFF position will eliminate sound at the set.

• If attempting auxiliary equipment hook-ups, check audio jack connections.

• Repeat channel selection.

• Add desired channel numbers (CHANNEL RING control) into TV memory.

• Check CABLE TUNING ON/OFF control for correct position.

This TV is equipped with protective circuitry that shuts the TV off in case of moderate
power surges. Should this occur turn the TV back on by pressing the POWER button
once or twice, or unplug (wait 10 seconds) and then replug the power cord at the AC
outlet. This feature is NOT designed to prevent damage due to high power surges such
as those caused by lightning, which is not covered by your warranty.

Cleaning and Care

• To avoid possible shock hazard be sure the TV is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning.

• When cleaning the TV screen, take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface (avoid wearing jewelry or using
anything abrasive). Wipe the front screen with a clean cloth dampened with water. Use even, easy, vertical strokes when
cleaning.

• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge dampened in a solution of cool clear water. Use a clean
dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.

• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots in the cabinet back.

• Never use thinners, insecticide sprays, or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause permanent marring
of the cabinet finish.

CAUTION: Avideo source (such as a video game, Compact Disc Interactive - CDI, or
TV information channel) which shows a constant non-moving pattern on the TV screen
can cause picture tube damage. When your TV is continuously used with such a source,
the pattern of the non-moving portion of the game (CDI, etc.) could leave an image per­manently on the picture tube. When not in use, turn the video source OFF. Regularly
alternate the use of such video sources with normal TV viewing.

GLOSSARY OF TELEVISION TERMS

Coaxial Cable - A single solid antenna wire normally matched with a

metal plug (F-type) end connector that screws (or pushes) directly
onto a 75 Ohm input found on the Television or VCR.

Closed Caption - Broadcast standard which allows you to read the
voice content of television programs on the TV screen. Designed to
help the hearing impaired this feature uses on-screen "text boxes" to
show dialogue and conversations while the TV program is in progress.

BNC Connector - A twist-lock connector for various types of RG­type coaxial cables. Also referred to as Bayonet Nut Coupler.

Display - An on screen message or graphics that helps the user operate
and adjust his Television feature controls. See On Screen Displays
(OSD).

Direct Audio/Video Inputs - Located on the rear of the TV, these
connectors (RCA phono type plug) are used for the input of audio and
video signals. Designed for use with VCRs (or other accessories) in
order to receive higher picture resolution and offer sound connection
options.

Event - Defines operation of the TV control system. Each event can
be programmed for the day(s) of the week; turn ON time; turn OFF
time; and channel.

Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) - The broadcast standard that
allows for stereo sound to be transmitted with the TV picture.

On Screen Displays (OSD) - Refers to the wording or messages gen­erated by the television (or VCR) to help the user with specific feature
controls (color adjustment, programming, etc.).

Menu - An onscreen listing of feature controls shown on the Television
screen that are made available for user adjustments.

Programming - The procedure of adding or deleting channel numbers
into the Television’s memory circuits. In this way the Television “remem­bers’’only the locally available or desired channel numbers and skips
over any unwanted channel numbers.

Remote Sensor Window - Awindow or opening found on the Television
control panel through which infrared remote control command signals are
received.

Second Audio Program (SAP) - Another or additional audio channel
provided for in the Multichannel Television Sound (MTS) broadcast stan­dard. The most frequently proposed use for SAP is the simultaneous

Setup Menu when the Setup Remote is not available.

Setup Remote - Remote control transmitter used by installer to set up
commercial functions and modes of operation.

screen displays or information (rather than waiting for the displays to
“time out” or automatically disappear from the screen).

Twin Lead Wire - The more commonly used name for the two strand
300 Ohm antenna wire used with many indoor and outdoor antenna sys­tems. In many cases this type of antenna wire requires an additional
adapter (or balun) in order to connect to the 75 Ohm Input terminals of
more recent Televisions and VCRs.
