Rear Speakers

•

Place these speakers behind your listening position.

•

If there isn't enough room, place these speakers so they face each other.

•

Place them about 60 to 90cm (2 to 3feet) above your ear, facing slightly downward.

Unlike the front and center speakers, the rear speakers are used to handle mainly sound effects and sound will not come from them all the time.

Subwoofer

•

The position of the subwoofer is not so critical. Place it anywhere you like.

Front Speakers

•

Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45°) toward you.

•

Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the same height as your ear.

•

Align the front face of the front speakers with the front face of the center speaker or place them slightly in front of the center speakers.

Center Speaker

•

It is best to install it at the same height as the front speakers.

•

You can also install it directly over or under the TV.

Position of the Home Theater

•

Place it on a stand, cabinet shelf, or under the TV stand.

Selecting the Listening Position

The listening position should be located about 2.5 to 3 times the distance of the TV's screen size away from the TV. Example: For 32" TVs 2~2.4m (6~8 feet)

For 55" TVs 3.5~4m (11~13 feet)

Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.

Press STOP button.

•

When disc is played back, press the STOP button twice so that “STOP”, appears on the display.

Press and hold P.SCAN button on the remote control for over 5 seconds.

•

Pressing and holding the button for over 5 seconds will select "Progressive Scan" and "Interlace Scan" alternately.

•

When you select P.SCAN, "P.SCAN" will appear on the display.

To set P.Scan mode for DivX discs, press the P.SCAN button on the remote control for more than 5 seconds with no disc in the unit (“'NO DISC" on the display), then load the DivX disc and play.

In interlaced-scan video, a frame consists of two interlaced fields (odd and even), where each field contains every other horizontal line in the frame. The odd field of alternating lines is displayed first, and then the even field is displayed to fill in the alternating gaps left by the odd field to form a single frame. One frame, displayed every 1/30th of a second, contains two interfaced fields, thus a total of 60 fields are displayed every 1/60th of a second. The interlaced scanning method is intended for capturing a still object.

Interlaced Scan (1 FRAME = 2 FIELDS)

The progressive scanning method scans one full frame of video consecutively down the screen, line by line. An entire image is drawn at one time, as opposed to the interlaced scanning process by which a video image is drawn in a series of passes. The progressive scanning method is desirable for dealing with moving objects.

Progressive Scan (FULL FRAME)

What is Progressive (or Non-Interlaced) Scanning?

•

This function works only on TVs equipped with component video inputs (Y, Pr, Pb) that support Progressive Video. (It does not work on TVs with conventional component inputs, i.e., non-progressive scan TVs.)

•

Depending on the brand and model of your TV, this function may not work.

Note

Choose one of the three methods for connecting to a TV.

Connecting the Video Out to TV

Unlike regular Interlace Scan, in which two fields of picture information alternate to create the entire picture (odd scan lines, then even scan lines), Progressive Scan uses one field of information (all lines displayed in one pass) to create a clear and detailed picture without visible scan lines.
