Chapter 2: Connecting your TV  
HDMI™ cable (with HDMI Logo “  
”)  
Overview of cable types  
Cables can be purchased from most stores that sell audio/  
video devices. Before purchasing any cables, be sure of  
connector types required by your devices and the length of  
each cable.  
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) cable is for  
use with devices with an HDMI output. An HDMI cable  
delivers digital audio and video in its native format. This  
cable carries both video and audio information; therefore,  
separate audio cables are not required for a complete HDMI  
device connection (page 15 and page 18).  
Coaxial (F-type) cable  
Note: HDMI cable provides better picture performance than  
a standard (composite) video or S-video cable.  
Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your antenna,  
cable TV service, and/or cable converter box to the ANT/  
CABLE input on your TV.  
Optical audio cable  
Standard A/V cables (red/white/yellow)  
Optical audio cable is for connecting receivers with Dolby  
Digital or PCM (pulse-code modulation) optical audio input  
to the TV’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal (page 17).  
Standard A/V cables (composite video) usually come in sets  
of three, and are for use with video devices with analog audio  
and composite video output. These cables (and the related  
inputs on your TV) are typically color-coded according to  
use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for  
stereo left (or mono) audio.  
Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable  
Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable is for connecting a PC  
to the TV’s PC IN terminal (page 18).  
S-video cable  
About the connection illustrations  
S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video  
output. Separate audio cables are required for a complete  
connection.  
You can connect different types and brands of devices to  
your TV in several different configurations. The connection  
illustrations in this manual are representative of typical  
device connections only. The input/output terminals on your  
devices may differ from those illustrated herein. For details  
on connecting and using your specific devices, refer to each  
device’s owner’s manual.  
Note: An S-video cable provides better picture performance  
than a composite video cable. If you connect an S-video  
cable, be sure to disconnect the standard (composite) video  
cable or the picture performance will be unacceptable.  
Component video cables (red/green/blue)  
Component video cables come in sets of three and are for  
use with video devices with component video output.  
(ColorStream® is Toshiba’s brand of component video.) These  
cables are typically color-coded red, green, and blue. Separate  
audio cables are required for a complete connection.  
Note: Component video cables provide better picture  
performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video  
cable.

Chapter 3: Using the remote control  
Programming the remote control  
to control your other devices  
Your Toshiba TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate  
most Toshiba devices. To program your TV remote control to  
operate a non-Toshiba device (or a Toshiba device that it is not  
preprogrammed to operate), follow the steps below. For details  
on using the remote control to operate the device, see page 21.  
1 In the remote control code table (page 24), find the  
code for your device. If more than one code is listed, try  
each one separately until you find one that works.  
2 Set the MODE SELECT switch to the type of device  
you are programming the remote control to operate —  
CABLE/SAT (for a cable converter box or satellite  
receiver), AUX 1 (for a VCR or TV/VCR combo), or  
AUX 2 (for a DVD player or HTIB [home theater in a  
box]).  
3 While holding down  
, press the Channel Number  
buttons to enter the 3-digit code for your device.  
4 To test the code, turn on the device, point the remote  
control at it, and press  
. See notes below.  
If the correct code was entered, the device will turn  
off.  
If the device does not respond, repeat steps 1–4 using  
another code.  
If the device does not respond to another code, you  
will need to use the remote control that came with the  
device.  
5 Remember to set the MODE SELECT switch back to  
“TV” to control the TV.  
6 For future reference, write down the code(s) you used:  
DEVICE  
CODE  
DEVICE  
CODE  
Note:  
In addition to POWER, confirm that all necessary keys on  
the TV remote control operate your device. If some keys are  
not operational, repeat the device code setup using another  
code (if other codes are listed for your device). If, after  
trying all listed codes, the necessary keys do not operate  
your device, use the device’s original remote control.  
Every time you change the batteries, you will need to  
reprogram the remote control.  
Some newer VCRs respond to either of two codes. These  
VCRs have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.” If your VCR has  
this kind of switch and does not respond to the codes for  
your VCR brand, set the switch to the other position (“VCR1”  
or “VCR2”) and reprogram the remote control.

In some cases you may not be able  
to operate your device with the TV  
remote control. Your other device may  
use a code that is not recognized by the  
TV remote control. If this happens, use  
the device’s remote control.

shown below.) Open the Terrestrial menu, highlight

When you press  
or  
on the remote control or TV  
control panel, your TV will stop only on the channels you  
programmed into the TV’s channel memory.  
Follow the steps below to program channels into the TV’s  
channel memory.  
Programming channels automatically  
Your TV can automatically detect all active channels in your  
area and store them in its memory. After the channels are  
programmed automatically, you can manually add or erase  
individual channels in the channel memory.  
Note:  
You must configure the ANT/CABLE input source before  
programming channels (page 28).  
The automatic channel programming process will erases  
channels that were previously programmed into the TV’s  
memory.  
To tune the TV to a channel not programmed in the channel  
memory, you must use the Channel Number buttons on the  
remote control.  
The TV will automatically cycle through all the antenna  
channels, and store all active channels in the channel  
memory. While the TV is cycling through the channels,  
the message “Scanning channels, please wait” appears (as  
shown above).  
Programming channels when the ANT/CABLE input is  
configured for Cable will take substantially longer than  
when the antenna input is configured for Antenna. This is  
normal; however, once channel programming is finished,  
you should not have to repeat the programming process  
again unless your Cable TV service lineup changes  
significantly.

Using CableClear® digital noise reduction  
Using the Game Mode feature  
The CableClear® digital noise reduction feature allows you  
to reduce visible interference in your TV picture. This may  
be useful when receiving a broadcast with a weak signal  
(especially a Cable channel) or playing a noisy video cassette  
or disc.  
You can use the Game Mode feature for shorter frame delays  
when playing a video game requiring split-second timing  
between the on-screen display and input from the controller  
(such as music creation and high-action games).  
This feature is more effective for 480i and 1080i input signals.  
Note: To use the Game Mode feature, the current video input  
must be Video 1, Video 2, ColorStream HD1, ColorStream  
HD2, HDMI 1, HDMI 2, or HDMI 3. The Game Mode cannot  
be turned on when any other video input is selected.  
To change the CableClear settings:

Cannot view external signals or channel 3 or 4  
General troubleshooting  
If you cannot view signals from external devices  
connected to VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, ColorStream® HDMI 1,  
HDMI 2, HDMI 3, PC, or from channels 3 or 4, make sure  
the Input Lock is set to Off (page 46).  
Before calling a service technician, please check this chapter  
for a possible cause of the problem and some solutions you  
can try.  
Poor color or no color  
The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another  
channel.  
Adjust the Tint and/or Color (page 40).  
Black box on-screen  
The closed caption feature is set to one of the Text modes  
(T1, T2, T3, or T4). Set the closed caption feature to Off (ꢀ  
page 41).  
Poor composite or S-video picture  
If the TV is connected to an external A/V device (e.g.,  
DVD player, video game system, set-top box, etc.) try  
using a ColorStream or HDMI video connection instead.  
TV stops responding to controls  
If the TV stops responding to the controls on the remote  
control or TV control panel and you cannot turn off the  
TV, please unplug the power cords few seconds then re-  
plug to try again.  
Picture and sound are out of sync  
As with all products that contain a digital display, in rare  
instances, when viewing certain content (e.g.. television  
broadcasts, video games, DVDs), you may notice that  
the sound and picture are slightly out of sync. This  
phenomenon can be caused by various factors including,  
without limitation, video processing within the TV,  
video processing in an attached gaming system, and  
video processing or different compression rates used by  
broadcasters in their programming. You may want to try  
one or more of the following suggestions, which may  
help to reduce the effect of this phenomenon:  
Other problems  
If your TV’s problem is not addressed in this  
Troubleshooting section or the recommended solution  
has not worked, use the Restore Factory Defaults  
procedure (page 32).  
TV will not turn on  
– If the TV is connected to an A/V receiver that has a  
programmable audio delay feature, use this feature to  
help synchronize the sound to the picture.  
– If you notice this phenomenon only on certain TV  
channels, please contact your local broadcast, cable, or  
satellite provider to inform them of this issue.  
Make sure the power cord is plugged in, and then press

known SAP source, make sure the MTS feature is set to  
SAP mode (page 42).  
If you hear audio that seems “incorrect” for the program  
you are watching (such as music or a foreign language),  
the SAP mode may be on. Set the MTS feature to Stereo  
mode (page 42).  
Press  
on the remote control or TV and select a  
valid video input source (page 33). If no device is  
connected to a particular input on the TV, no picture will

Channel tuning problems  
Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device  
mode (page 20).  
The channel may have been erased from the channel  
memory by the Channel Add/Delete feature. Add the  
channel to the channel memory (page 29).  
The channel may be blocked by the Channels Block  
feature. Unblock the channel (page 46).  
If you are unable to tune digital channels, check the  
antenna configuration (page 28). If you are still  
unable to tune digital channels, clear all channels from  
the channel list (page 30) and reprogram channels  
into the channel memory (page 29). If you are still  
unable to tune digital channels, use the Reset Factory  
Defaults procedure (page 32). Also see “TV stops  
responding to controls” and “Other problems”  
(page 53).  
Closed caption problems  
If the program or video you selected is not closed-  
captioned, no captions will display (page 41).  
If text is not available, a black rectangle may appear. If  
this happens, turn off the closed caption feature  
(page 41).  
A closed-caption signal may not display correctly in  
the following situations: a) when a videotape has been  
dubbed; b) when the signal reception is weak; or c) when  
the signal reception is nonstandard (page 41).  
Rating blocking (V-Chip) problems  
If you forget your PIN code: While the PIN code  
entering screen is displayed, press  
four times  
within 5 seconds. The PIN code you previously stored  
will be cleared (page 44).  
No REGZA-LINK operation

(
) are used.  
When the connected REGZA-LINK device does not  
work correctly after you have changed settings of the  
device, turn off your TV and unplug the power cord,  
then plug and turn on again.  
If several devices are connected, REGZA-LINK feature  
may not operate properly.
