TELEVISION ANTENNA CONNECTION PROTECTION

If an outside antenna/satellite dish or cable system is to be connected to the TV, make sure that the antenna or cable system is electrically grounded to provide some protection against voltage surges and static charges.

Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPSA 70, provides

information with regard to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of the grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements of the grounding electrode.

Ground Clamp

Lightning Protection

For added protection of the TV during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended or unused for long periods of time, unplug the TV from the wall outlet and disconnect the antenna or cable system.

Power Lines

Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or where it could fall into such power lines or circuits. Remember, the

screen of the coaxial cable is intended to be connected to earth in

the building installation.

Adjusting the Color Calibration Settings

Color Calibration Settings allow you to make precise adjustments to the picture and to create picture modes to save groups of picture settings.

The Color Tuner, 11 Point White Balance, and test patterns allow technicians to manually calibrate the TV. Calibration requires specialized training, an input with precisely set colors, and a specialized light meter.

To adjust the color calibra picture settings:

1. From the PICTURE menu, use the Arrow buttons to highlight Color Calibration and press the OK button. The COLOR CALIBRATION menu is displayed.

2. Use the Arrow buttons to

• Picture Mode - Not directly

selectable (reference only). Changes to Hue, Saturation, and Brightness are saved here and indicated with an asterisk (*).

• Color Temperature - Not directly

selectable (reference only). Changes to Oset and Gain are

saved here and indicated with an asterisk (*).

• Color Tuner - Adjust the HSB color, RGB osets, and

11-point white balance, and display calibration test patterns.

• Reset Color Tuner - Resets the color tuner settings for the current color temperature mode.

• If the current picture mode is a pre-set, the color temperature is reset for all pre-set picture modes using

the current color temperature mode. It does not aect

saved custom picture modes.

• If the current picture mode is a saved custom picture mode, the color temperature only reset for that custom

picture modes. It does not aect pre-set picture modes

or other custom picture modes.

For example, suppose that:

• You have created two custom picture modes: “My Picture

Settings” and “Oliver.” They both use the Normal color

temperature, but you have adjusted it for each of the modes.

• You have changed the Color Tuner settings for the

Normal color temperature while in the Calibrated picture

mode.

So, you have “My Picture Settings” with a modied Normal color temperature, “Oliver” with dierent changes to the Normal color temperature, and a third set of changes to the Normal color temperature that apply to all of the pre-set

picture modes.

The Calibrated and Calilbrated Dark picture modes both

use the Normal color temperature. If Calibrated is the current picture mode when the Normal color temperature is reset, the change aects both of these picture modes,

but does not undo the changes to the color temperature for the “My Picture Settings” or “Oliver” custom picture modes.

If “My Picture Settings is the current picture mode when the

Normal color temperature is reset, the change only aects

“My Picture Settings” picture mode. The color temperature changes to the “Oliver,” Calibrated, and Calibrated Dark picture modes stay as they are.
