A Guide to Digital TV

● What is Digital Television?

Digital television (DTV) is a new way of transmitting high quality video and audio to your TV set. Using DTV, broadcasters can transmit high definition TV (HDTV) images, Dolby digital surround audio, and new services such as multicasting (transmitting more than one program on the same TV channel) and datacasting. Several of these services can be combined into a single digital broadcast.

Digital Television Services

● Digital Picture Quality

DTV programs are transmitted in two different formats. The first is Standard Definition Television (SDTV) and the second is High Definition Television (HDTV).

SDTV program formats include 480-line interlaced (480i) and 480-line progressive (480p) video. 480i programs are essentially a digital version of our current analog TV programs, while the 480p format offers improved image detail over 480i. Some 480p

programs are broadcast in widescreen and are comparable to progressive-scan DVD movies in image quality.

HDTV program formats include 1080-line interlaced (1080i) and 720-line progressive (720p). Both HDTV formats are always broadcast in widescreen, and offer much higher picture quality than SDTV.

Q&A

1. Is the antenna I use for existing TV reception good enough for DTV?

Over-the-air (OTA) digital TV broadcasting uses the same channels as analog TV and works well with many existing TV antennas. However, DTV broadcast channel assignments are different than analog channels. You should find out whether your local DTV broadcasts are on VHF (channels 2-13) or UHF (channels 14-69) to see if you need a different antenna.

If your DTV channels are on UHF and you already get good UHF reception, your present antenna may work fine. The same holds true for VHF DTV reception. Note that in some markets, both VHF and UHF channels are used for DTV broadcasts.

You can find out the latest DTV channel assignments for your area by browsing selected Internet web sites such as www.titantv. com, www.10000watts.com, and www.fcc.gov.

2. How difficult is it to receive DTV signals indoors?

This depends on whether your local DTV stations are running full power or not and how close your location is to the transmission tower. DTV receivers do not require as much signal as analog TV receivers to produce high-quality images and sound.

Once the DTV signal level exceeds a certain threshold at the receiver, the digital video and audio data is decoded at the same quality it was originally encoded for broadcast.

This is a big advantage for DTV over analog TV - there is no noise, ghosting, static, or scratchy audio.

3.How can I connect an antenna in my townhouse, co-operative apartment, condominium, or apartment?

The Federal Communications Commission’s OTARD Rule (part of the Telecommunications Act of 1996) allows residents of condominiums, townhouse, or members of neighborhood associations to put up outside antennas for reception of broadcast TV signals as long as those antennas are not located in common areas and are no more than 12’ in height.

Residents of rental units (apartments, etc.) are not covered by the OTARD rules and will have to use indoor antennas to receive

DTV broadcasts. It is possible that the landlord of an apartment complex can provide broadcast DTV signals via a master TV antenna system to each apartment.

4. Can I connect my DTV set-top receiver to my cable TV service?

Cable TV systems use a different method for transmitting digital TV programs that is currently incompatible with broadcast DTV settop receivers. So you will still need to use an outdoor or indoor antenna to receive OTA broadcast DTV programs.

The good news is that you won’t have to pay a monthly or per-program charge to watch OTA DTV and HDTV programs. They’re free, unlike subscription satellite TV or premium cable TV. All you need is an antenna and a DTV set-top receiver to enjoy clear, sharp widescreen images and high-quality audio.

Installing Batteries in the Remote Control

1Lift the cover at the back of the remote control upward as shown in the figure.

2Install two AAA size batteries.

● Make sure to match the “+” and “–” ends of the batteries with the diagram inside the compartment.

● Do not mix battery types, i.e. alkaline and manganese.

3 Close the cover as shown in the figure.

Remove the batteries and store them in a cool and dry place if you won’t be using the remote control for a long time. The remote control be used up to about 23 feet from the TV. (Assuming

typical TV usage, the batteries last for about one year.))

Using the remote control with the

) light button set to On will reduce the battery usage

time.

 

If the remote control doesn’t work! Check the following

1. Is the TV power on?

2. Are the plus and minus ends of the batteries reversed? 3. Are the batteries drained?

4.Is there a power cut, or is the power cord unplugged?

5.Is there a special fluorescent light or a neon sign nearby?

Connections

Connecting VHF and UHF Antennas

If your antenna has a set of leads that look like this, see “Antennas with 300 Ω Flat Twin

Leads” below.

If your antenna has one lead that looks like this, see “Antennas with 75 Ω Round Leads”.

If you have two antennas, see “Separate VHF and UHF Antennas”.

Antennas with 300 Ω Flat Twin Leads

If you are using an off-air antenna (such as a roof antenna or “rabbit ears”) that has 300 Ω twin flat leads, follow the directions below.

1 Place the wires from the twin leads under the screws on a 300-75 Ω adapter (not supplied).

Use a screwdriver to tighten the screws.

2 Plug the adaptor into the ANT IN terminal on the side of the TV.

Antennas with 75 Ω Round Leads

1 Plug the antenna lead into the ANT IN terminal on the side of the TV.

Separate VHF and UHF Antennas

If you have two separate antennas for your TV (one VHF and one UHF), you must combine the two antenna signals before connecting the antennas to the TV. This procedure requires an optional combiner-adaptor (available at most electronics shops).

1 Connect both antenna leads to the combiner.

2 Plug the combiner into the ANT IN terminal on the bottom of the side panel.

What is HDMI?

HDMI, or high-definition multimedia interface, is an interface that enables the transmission of digital audio and video signals using a single cable.

The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size and has the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed.

Each DVD Player or Cable Box / Satellite receiver (Set-Top Box) has a different back panel configuration.

The TV may not output sound and pictures may be displayed with abnormal color when DVD Player or Cable Box / Satellite receivers supporting HDMI versions older than 1.3 are connected. When connecting an older HDMI cable and there is no sound, connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI3/DVI IN jack and the audio cables to the HDMI3/DVI IN [R-AUDIO-L] jacks on the back of the TV. If this happens, contact the company that provided the DVD Player or Cable Box / Satellite receiver to confirm the HDMI version, then request an upgrade.

HDMI cables that do not support HDMI version 1.3 may cause annoying flicker or no screen display.

TV Side Panel

Digital Audio System

Optical Cable (Not supplied)

What is OPTICAL?

An optical cable converts an electric signal into an optical light signal, and transmits it through glass fibers. S/PDIF is a transmission system of digital audio in the form of a light wave that uses a glass conductor.

Each Digital Audio System has a different back panel configuration.

When the receiver (home theater) is set to On, you can hear sound output from the TV’s Optical jack. When the TV is displaying a DTV(air) signal, the TV will send out 5.1 channel sound to the Home theater receiver. When the source is a digital component such as a DVD and is connected to the TV via HDMI, only 2 channel sound will be heard from the Home Theater receiver.

If you want to hear 5.1 channel audio, connect the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack on the DVD player or Cable/Satellite Box directly to an Amplifier or Home Theater, not the TV.

Connecting an Amplifier / DVD Home Theater

1Connect Audio Cables between the AUDIO OUT [R-AUDIO-L] jacks on the TV and AUDIO IN [L-AUDIO-R] jacks on the Amplifier/DVD Home Theater.
