It is common to route the output of your camcorder, cable box (STB), satellite receiver (IRD) and personal video recorder (PVR) through your VCR for recording, editing and time shifting. Not all devices are the same and many may need additional cables, adapters and setup. In particular, computers, game consoles, high-definition receivers and progressive DVD players must be set accordingly. Antenna Connection This LCD-TV has a built-in cable-ready NTSC tuner for analog cable and NTSC broadcast singnals. You may choose to connect the analog cable or TV antenna wire (not included) directly to this LCD-TV antenna input. Tuner Video Connections There are four types of video inputs: HDTV (480p, 1080i, 720p only), YCbCr (480i only), S-Video and Video. Each of these video inputs has a corresponding set of stereo left and right audio inputs. These connectors are color-coded to match the colors of the corresponding connectors on other devices and cables. The HDTV input will only accept 480p, 1080i and 720p signals. Use this to connect high definition devices such as a terrestrial HDTV receiver, HD satellite box, HD cable box or progressive scan DVD player. The YCbCr (480i only) input will only accept NTSC signals. Use this to obtain better color performance from devices such as a DVD player. The built-in progressive scan logic will automatically convert interlaced DVD to non-interlaced. The S-Video and Video inputs are provided for use with devices such as a VCR, satellite receiver, digital cable box, or game console. The built-in progressive scan logic will also automatically convert these interlaced NTSC signals to non-interlaced. 7 30" Wide-Format LCD-TV User Manual HDTV receiver OUT AUDIO L R Pr VIDEO Pb Y Y VIDEO Cb Cr DVD player OUT AUDIO R L HDTV In (Green) Y (Blue) Pb (Red) Pr (Red) R (White) L S-Video (Red) R (White) L L R L R Cr Cb Y Component VideoIn (Green) (Blue) (Red) (Red) (White) (Yellow) Video (Red) (White) R S-VIDEO L R L VIDEO AUDIO AUDIO OUT VCR OUT Game console PC & Audio Output Connections There are two PC inputs: DVI, VGA and one PC audio input. There is also an audio output and a subwoofer output. The DVI input (or more specifically DVI-D input) is a digital interface that requires the computer to have a corresponding DVI or DFP output. Using this interface provides a superior on screen image when the PC output is set to the full native resolution of the LCD panel. Neither a DVI cable nor DFP adapter is included and must be purchased separately. The VGA input is an analog RGB interface with separate H & V sync signals. VGA is more commonly found on computers. Attach the LCD-TV to your computer using the included (blue color-coded) VGA cable. The PC audio cable is not included and must be purchased separately. 8 30" Wide-Format LCD-TV User Manual For both the DVI and VGA inputs, please remember to adjust your computer resolution to match the 1280x768 resolution of the 30" LCD-TV for best performance. An additional software driver may be required from your PC graphics chip vendor to obtain wide-format resolution support. The audio output is commonly used to connect to an external audio amplifier or surround sound processor. The subwoofer output is used to attach an external powered subwoofer. Remember to enable this feature from the Audio Menu of the LCD-TV. When the subwoofer software command is set to On, an internal crossover cuts off the low frequency signal to the built-in speakers. When the subwoofer software command is set to Off, the built-in speakers will output full range audio.

A: Each type of programming content may be different. Most NTSC TV programs and videotapes are 4:3 aspect ratio. DVD movies are available in several formats and can be adjusted accordingly. HD content is typically wide fviewed using the NORMAL ormatsetting. Occasionally DVD movies and TV programs are letterboxed and can be zoomed to fill the entire screen using the WIDE setting. Q: I have no video from my progressive DVD player. How do I fix this? A: You may need to connect the DVD player to another video input. Match the settings on your DVD player to progressive or interlaced output. For progressive output, use the HDTV(YPbPr) input on the LCD-TV. For interlaced output, use the YCbCr input on the LCD-TV. Q: I have no video from the HDTV input. What is wrong? A: Adjust the settings on your HD receiver to 720p, 1080i or 480p output. On the Sony SAT-HD200, this button is on the front panel and remote. For the Samsung model SIR-TS160, this switch is on the rear panel. Q: Will a progressive scan DVD player provide better video? A: This LCD-TV includes a progressive scan converter that is comparable to the scan-converter built into progressive scan DVD players. Q: What are anamorphic widescreen DVD movies? A: There are two common ways of recording wide format movies on a DVD: letterbox and anamorphic. Anamorphic recordings are also commonly labeled "Enhanced for 16:9 TV's" . Anamorphic recordings have over 30% more vertical resolution than letterbox format. Use the SCALING button on your remote to adjust the image aspect ratio and fill more of the screen. Q: Do LCD's have a burn-in problem? A: No. Unlike CRT and plasma TV's, liquid crystal displays (LCD) do not use phosphor and thus have no problems with a still image becoming permanently stored on the screen. Q: Can I use a game console such as Sony Playstation 2, Nintendo Game Cube or Microsoft XBOX with my LCD-TV? A: Yes. If you intend to use a game console and/or watch standard TV broadcasts over cable, satellite or antenna, an LCD-TV is a necessary and superior choice over widescreen plasma and CRT televisions. The repetitive image from games and unused black filled borders will damage a plasma TV by burning a permanent image into the phosphor. Q: Will leaving my LCD-TV on cause the image to degrade? A: No. Unlike plasma TV's, this LCD-TV does not exhibit aging over time. The brightness of the image remains the same. Sufficient airflow is important to maintain a cool operating temperature. Q: I forgot my parental control password . How do I reset the parental control? A: Enter 00000 as the password. Q: I have video, but no audio. What's up? A: Adjust the volume up, turn off the mute button, and confirm the audio cables for this video source properly are connected. 28 30" Wide-Format LCD-TV User Manual Q: I have audio, but no video. What's up? A: Match the video output format (720p, 1080i, 480p, 480i) of your video source to the appropriate input connector on the LCD-TV . Q: I am using the component video input. Why are the colors all wrong? A: Confirm the Cb and Cr cables are not switched by matching the color codes on the cable to the connectors. Q: My cable TV reception is not very clear. Why is this? A: Many homes split a signal from their antenna or cable many times. The number of splitters and the quality of the connectors on the 75ohm cable will visibly affect TV reception. Computers, microwave ovens and other electronic devices emit electronic noise. Identify the interfering device by shutting it off and try relocating the interfering device away from your LCD-TV. Q: My computer images appear stretched. How do I fix this? A: Adjust the display properties of your PC to 1280x768. (You may need to download a 1280x768 driver.) Q: The text on my PC is too small. How do I make it larger? A: Adjust the font size using the large system font (125%) found in your PC's Display Properties Settings under the Advanced button. Q: The audio sounds "thin" and is missing bass sounds. A: Adjust the audio bass and treble settings from the audio menu. Be sure to set the subwoofer value to off when there is no subwoofer. Q: Changing channels using the 0-9 numbers is a little slow. How can speed this up? A: Press enter after entering the channel. The software is designed to accept 1, 2 or 3 digit channel numbers. 29 30" Wide-Format LCD-TV User Manual Specifications Active Range 640 x 350 640 x 480 VGA Refresh Rate 70 60 72 75 85 720 x 400 800 x 600 SVGA 70 56 60 72 75 85 1024 x 768 XGA 60 70 75 85 1280 x 1024 60 31.5 31.469 37.861 37.5 43.269 31.46 35.156 37.879 48.077 46.875 53.674 48.363 56.476 60.023 68.677 63.981 70 H V Dot Clock MHz 25.175 N N N N N N P P P P P N N P P P N N N N N P P P P P P N N P P P 59.940 25.175 72.809 31.5 75 70.08 31.5 28.32 85.008 36 56.250 36 60.317 40 72.188 50 75 49.5 85.061 56.25 60.004 65 70.069 75 75.029 78.75 84.997 94.5 60.020 108 Pol.
