WELCOME TO HDTV

High Definition refers to a new way of sending programming information over the airwaves and into your TV. There are two types of TV display formats available. One is ATSC format, which originated from the Advanced Television

Systems Committee. The other is NTSC format, which is named for the National Television System Committee. What makes your High Definition Television (HDTV) special is that it has tuners capable of receiving several types of signals: analog (in NTSC format) and digital (in ATSC format), cable (in NTSC and ATSC formats), and digital satellite and high definition satellite (coming from DIRECTV if you subscribe to DIREC'I'V_ programming*). This TV makes receiving all types of signals seamless. Below is an example of how your HDTV can receive the different types of signals.

DIRECTV DIRECTV HD SATELLITE SATELUTE

TOWER SENDING ANALOG AND/OR DIGITAL SIGNALS

SATELLITE DISH ANTENNA'

PARTS OF A COMPLETE HIGH DEFINITION SYSTEM

So why is it called High Definition? Definition---commonly called resolution--refers to the sharpness of the image and is determined by the number of dots, or pixels, your screen usesto create the image. The more pixels the sharper

the image. An HDTV normally has either 1080 or 720 rows and over 1,000 columns of pixels. This results in a display of over one million pixels. Your HDTV also has a wide screen, or "wide aspect ratio" of 16:9 as opposed to

the common 4:3 ratio. It is normally capable of displaying both interlaced images (like today's analog TVs) and

progressive images (like a computer monitor).

What this all means is that while digital broadcasting will bring many new possibilities, only people with HDTVs like

yours will actually be capable of realizing many of them. A wide aspect ratio, one million pixel resolution, CD- quality audio with Dolby Digital surround sound, and improved interactivity are features of many digital broadcasts,

and your HDTV will help bring it all into your home.

SETUP AND CONNECTIONS

STEP 1: UNPACK THE SYSTEM

Make sure to locate the remote control and power cord.

STEP2: CONNECT YOUR TV TO OTHER COMPONENTS

During the satellite dish antenna installation, the TV may have been connected

with just a coaxial cable for the system test. Depending on what components you have, another connection may provide better picture and audio quality. The following sections provide cable and connection information to help you decide what connection is best for you.

RemoteControl PowerCord

THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE CONNECTING

COMPONENTS

Protect Your Components from Power Surges

• Connect all component_ before plugging any power cords into the wall outlet.

• Always turn off the "iV and other components before you connect or disconnect any cables.

Position Cables Correctly to Avoid Audio Hum or Interference

• Insert all cable plugs firmly into their jacks.

• Place the audio/video cables to the sides of the TV's back panel insteadof

straight down the middle after you connect your components,

• Try not to coil any twin-lead cables;keep them away from the audio/video

cables asmuch aspossible.

• Make sure all antennas and cablesare properly grounded. Refer to the safety

sheet packed with your unit.

Protect Your Components from Overheating

• Do not block ventilation holes in any of the components. Arrange the components so that air can circulate freely.

• Do not stackcomponents.

• Allow adequate ventilation when placing your components in a stand.

• Place an amplifier on the top shelf of the standso that heated air rising from it

will not flow around other components.

SETUP AND CONNECTIONS

JACKS AND CABLES

Below is a description of the jacks and cables you can use to make connections. Note that not all cables come with your television unit.

S-Video Jack and Cable

The S-Video jack provides the best picture quality for your system.

This jack is available on this TV and is used in conjunction with audio cables. Remember also to connect the left and right audio cables because the S-Video

jack carries only the picture signal, not the sound.

Audio/Video Jacks and Cables (RCA-type)

The audio/video jacks provide very good picture and stereo sound quality. Theses jacks are used for most audio/video connections between components.

The audio/video jacks are often color coded (yellow for video, red for right audio, and white for left audio). If your component has only one input for audio

(mono), connect it to the left (white L/Mono) audio jack on the TV.

RF Jacks and Coaxial Cables (F-type)

The RF jacks are necessary for reception of off-air broadcasts, cable, and

DIRECTV signals.

These jacks are required for antenna or cable connections. The RF and coaxial jacks on the'IV are labeled SATELLITEIN, ANTENNA A IN, and ANTENNA B

IN. An RG-6 coaxial cable is required for all satellite signal distribution.

Optical Jack and Cables

The optical cable is used for connecting a Dolby Digital receiver. If you own a

Dolby Digital receiver that uses an optical cable-type input, you can use an optical cable to connect the TV to that receiver for the best sound quality.

Telephone Jack and Cord

The telephone line cord is required to connect your TV to a phone line. Ifyou

choose to subscribe to DIRECTVe programming, some services require this phone line connection. The phone line connection is usedto periodically call

out to DIRECTV. You will need an RJl 1 type modular jack, which isthe most common type of phone jack and might look like the one pictured here. If you

don't have a modular jack, call your local telephone company to find out how

to get one installed.

Y, PB,PRJacks and Cable

The Y, P_, Pejacks allows you to connect an optional component Video source,

such as a OVD player. This connection provides optimum quality by maintaining the video source as three separate signals through these jacks.To ensure maximum picture quality, use three video-grade cables for the

connection.

PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE CONTROL

The universal remote can be programmed to control most brands of remote controllable components, such asVCRs. The remote is already programmed to control most RCA, GE and PROSCAN TVs, VCRs, DVD players, and laserdisc players.

TESTING THE REMOTE CONTROL

To determine whether the universal remote control requires programming, turn on a

component, such as a VCR, point the remote control at the VCR, and press the VCR1 button. Then press ON*OFF or CH + (channel up) or CH - (channel down) to see if the

VCR responds to the remote control commands. If not, the remote control requires

again to tell the remote control to search the next set of codes. Continue pressing PLAY until the component turns off or you have searched

through all of the codes. There are20 total setsof codes. If the component does not turn off after pressing PLAY 20 times, then the remote cannot control that particular

component.

If the component you want to control does turn off:

1. Pressand release REVERSE,then wait two seconds. Repeat this step until the component turns back on.

2. To finish, press and hold STOP until the LED light on the remote control turns off.
