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.
● Dolby Surround Sound
With DTV, you can listen to a variety of Dolby digital audio formats from Dolby Surround 2.0 to Dolby Digital 5.1 surround, using your home audio system. Many HDTV programs are now broadcast with DD 5.1 soundtracks.

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 set-
top 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.

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 1 IN (CABLE) or ANT 2 IN (AIR) terminal on the rear of the TV.
Antennas with 75 Ω Round Leads
1 Plug the antenna lead into the ANT 1 IN (CABLE) or ANT 2 IN (AIR) terminal on the rear 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 1 IN (CABLE) or ANT 2 IN (AIR) terminal on the bottom of the
rear panel.

Connecting Cable TV

To connect to a cable TV system, follow the instructions below.
Cable without a Cable Box
1 Plug the incoming cable into the ANT 1 IN (CABLE) terminal on the rear of the TV.
➢
Because this TV is cable-ready, you do not need a cable box to view unscrambled cable channels.
Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles All Channels
1 Find the cable that is connected to the ANT OUT terminal on your cable box.
➢
This terminal might be labeled “ANT OUT”, “VHF OUT” or simply, “OUT”.
2 Connect the other end of this cable to the ANT 1 IN (CABLE) terminal on the rear of the TV.
Connecting to a Cable Box that Descrambles Some Channels
If your cable box descrambles only some channels (such as premium channels), follow the instructions below. You will need a two-way splitter, an RF (A/B) switch, and four lengths of Antenna cable. (These items are available at most electronics stores.)
1 Find and disconnect the cable that is connected
to the ANT IN terminal on your cable box.
➢
This terminal might be labeled “ANT IN”, “VHF IN” or simply, “IN”.

Connecting a DVD Player/Set-Top Box via HDMI

This connection can only be made if there is an HDMI Output jack on the external device. 1 Connect an HDMI Cable between
the HDMI IN 1 on the TV and the HDMI OUT jack on the DVD Player/ Set-Top Box.
What is HDMI?
● HDMI, or high-definition multimedia interface, is a next-generation interface that enables the transmission of digital audio and video signals using a single cable.
● “Multimedia interface” is a more accurate name for it especially because it allows multiple channels of digital audio (5.1 channels). The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller in size, has the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed, and supports multi-channel digital audio.
➢
Each DVD Player/Set-top box has a different panel configuration.
➢
When connecting a DVD Player/Set-top box, match the color of the connection terminal to the cable.
➢
When connecting via HDMI, you do not need to connect Audio Cables. You only need to connect Audio cables when connecting via HDMI/DVI.
➢
The external devices that support lower versioned HDMI mode may not implement sound output for the TV with the latest HDMI version (HDMI 1.3). In this case, connect to HDMI2/DVI IN and DVI IN [R-AUDIO-L] on the back panel of the TV.
➢
Part of lower versioned HDMI cables may cause annoying flickers or no screen display. In this case use the cable that supports the latest HDMI version (HDMI 1.3).
