Precautions When Displaying a Still Image
A still image may cause permanent damage to the TV screen.
• Do not display a still image on the LCD panel for more than 2 hours as it can cause screen image retention.
This image retention is also known as "screen burn".
To avoid such image retention, reduce the degree of brightness and contrast of the screen when displaying a still image.
• Watching the LCD TV in 4:3 format for a long period of time may leave traces of borders displayed on the left, right and center of the screen
caused by the difference of light emission on the screen.
Playing a DVD or a game console may cause a similar effect to the screen.
Damages caused by the above effect are not covered by the Warranty.
• Displaying still images from Video games and PC for longer than a certain period of time may produce partial after-images.
To prevent this effect, reduce the ‘brightness’ and ‘contrast’ when displaying still images.
Précautions à prendre lors de l'affichage d'une image fixe
Une image fixe peut causer des dommages irrémédiables à l'écran du téléviseur.
• N'affichez pas une image fixe sur l'écran LCD plus de 2 heures. Cela pourrait provoquer une rémanence de l'image à l'écran.
Cette rémanence de l'image est également appelée "brûlure de l'écran".
Pour éviter une telle rémanence de l'image à l'écran, réduisez la luminosité et le contraste de l'écran lorsque vous laissez une image fixe affichée.
• Regarder l'écran LCD du téléviseur en format 4:3 pendant une longue période peut laisser des traces de bordures à gauche,
à droite et au centre de l'écran, à cause de la différence d'émission de lumière sur l'écran.
La lecture d'un DVD ou l'utilisation d'une console de jeu peut avoir un effet similaire sur l'écran.
Les dommages provoqués par les effets qui précèdent ne sont pas couverts par la garantie.
• L'affichage d'images fixes de jeux vidéo et d'ordinateurs pendant plus longtemps qu'une période spécifique peut provoquer des rémanences.
Pour éviter cela, réduisez la "luminosité" et le "contraste" lors de l'affichage d'images fixes.
Precauciones al mostrar en la pantalla una imagen fija
La imagen fija puede causar daños permanentes en la pantalla del televisor.
• No deje una imagen fija en la pantalla LCD durante más de dos horas ya que se podría producir una retención de la imagen en la pantalla. Este fenómeno de
retención de imágenes también se denomina "quemadura de pantalla".
Para evitar que se produzca esa persistencia de la imagen, reduzca el nivel de luminosidad y de contraste de la pantalla cuando muestre imágenes fijas.
• El uso del televisor LCD en formato 4:3 durante un tiempo prolongado puede dejar rastros de bordes en las partes izquierda,
derecha y central de la pantalla debido a las diferencias en la emisión lumínica de la pantalla.
La reproducción de un DVD o el uso de una consola de videojuegos pueden provocar un efecto similar en la pantalla.
Reproducir un DVD o una videoconsola puede causar un efecto similar en la pantalla. La garantía no cubre estos daños.
• Ver imágenes fijas de videojuegos y PC durante más tiempo del indicado puede producir restos de imágenes parciales.
Para evitar este efecto, reduzca el 'brillo' y el 'contraste' cuando vea imágenes fijas.

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 without compression.
• “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/STB has a different back panel configuration.
We recommend the use of cables with a Ferrite Core.

Using D-Net
What’s D-Net?
D-Net refers to a home network consisting of devices supporting D-Net (IEEE1394) connection (such as digital VCRs and
Set-Top Boxes).
D-Net (IEEE1394) interface is capable of supporting various high-end digital A/V applications, such as A/V device control and
signal routing, Digital Video (DV) editing, home networking.
How to connect compatible IEEE1394 Devices
Connecting compatible IEEE1394 devices is simple using this TV.
A secure digital interface is provided to other digital home entertainment units, such as a DTV, a Set-Top Box,
an AV-HDD, a digital VCR, a MPEG Camcorder.
TV Rear Panel
1
IEEE 1394 Cable
Digital VCR (D-VHS)
To access D-Net (IEEE1394) in the menu, see page 96.
The IEEE1394 interface is equipped with a copy protection standard called Digital Transmission Content Protection (DTCP).
The name of 1394 Jack on the external device may be different according to the manufacturer (i.e., DTV LINK or i.LINK).
The supported video format is MPEG-2 Digital video. Other digital video formats (e.g. DV format...) are not supported. For
audio, Dolby Digital and MPEG Digital Audio are supported, other digital audio formats (e.g. MP3, DTS) are not supported.
Because IEEE1394 is an evolving technology, it is possible that some or all of the features of a device you
connect to the TV through the IEEE1394 port may not operate.
There may be a single IEEE1394 jack depending on the specifications of the external device.
Connect the IEEE1394 Cable from the jack

of the component with IEEE1394 capability,
such as a Set-Top Box or a Digital VCR to
the D-Net (IEEE1394) S400MPEG jack on
the TV.

When Connecting D-Net (IEEE1394) Compatible devices
The last device in the chain should not be looped back to the TV as the TV may not be able to work with the other devices.
To connect two or more D-Net (IEEE1394) Compatible devices, follow the diagram below.
A maximum 10 D-Net (IEEE1394)
Compatible devices can be connected.

Connection Options
There are two different connection options for connecting D -Net (IEEE1394) compatible devices.
Select the most suitable option according to your network of audio/video products.
The Direct Device-To-Device Option
D-Net (IEEE1394) permits the chaining of devices, unlike
analog audio and video connections where each device needs to
be individually connected to the TV. This allows you to connect
your D-VHS to your 1394 Set-Top Box only, then connect the
Set-Top Box to the TV. More IEEE1394 devices can be added to
the chain as needed. Each video device can be viewed on the
TV’s D-Net and information can be sent from any IEEE1394
device to other compatible devices.
DTV STB
Digital VCR
The Hub Connection Option
D-Net (IEEE1394) also permits connecting devices using the TV as a hub. Each device is capable of sending
information, which may include audio and video, to any other device on the network.

4-Pin and 6-Pin Connectors
Two different types of connectors are used for IEEE1394 terminals and cables, a 4-pin and a 6-pin.
The 4-pin connector sends digital audio, digital video and digital control signals to and from devices.
The TV has two available 4-pin connection jacks, of which two are at the back.
The 6-pin connector also sends digital audio, video and control
signals, but in addition, sends low voltage electrical power.
There are no 6 pin connectors on this TV.
It is not possible to directly connect a 6-pin connector to a 4-pin jack,
and vice versa. In order to connect a 6-pin device to a 4-pin device,
an adaptor or adaptor cable is required, easily purchased from an
electronics or computer store.
Connecting a 6-pin device (such as a camcorder) via an adapter to the TV, (if it is designed
to receive electrical power from another 6-pin device) will require that the camcorder be directly
connected to the AC supply, or that the camcorder’s battery power be used.

What is D-Net Mode?
D-Net Mode refers to selecting a device from the D-Net device list except for DTV itself (it also refers to selecting another
DTV connected with an IEEE 1394 cable.) In this mode, the DTV displays video from the connected device.
Although the D-Net OSD has disappeared, and video is playing from another device and not from the DTV,
the DTV is in D-Net Mode.

* What is EIA-775? : EIA-775 is an OSD standard that enables the control of external 1394 devices using
functions such as Play, Stop, etc.
What is CEA-931? : This is a standard for controlling external IEEE1394 devices with the TV remote control and
*
not the remote control of the external device.
For example, to play D-VHS, you press the Play button of the TV instead of the Play button of the D-VHS, the
Play command is transmitted to the DVHA through the IEEE1394 connection.
What is Time-Shift Mode? : This refers to a function that plays the file currently being recorded on the
*
selected AV-HDD. At this time, the recording time appears at the top right of the
screen and the playing time is displayed at the bottom left of the screen.
For example: If you are currently 45 minutes into a one hour recording, you can
backtrack and view the first 45 minutes without affecting the recording.
In the Time-Shift Control Panel, the Move to Recording Position and Recording
stop buttons are added to the basic AV-HDD Control Panel.
