Standard Definition TV (SDTV): Basic digital television transmission that may be  
displayed with fewer than 480 progressively scanned lines (480p) in 16:9 or 4:3 format.  
480 interlaced (480i) is the quality of today’s analog TV system. SDTV provides  
150-300,000 pixels.  
Enhanced Definition TV (EDTV): A better digital television transmission than SDTV  
with at least 480p, in a 16:9 or 4:3 display. 480p is the quality used by most DVD  
players. EDTV provides 300-400,000 pixels.  
High-Definition Television (HDTV): The best quality digital picture, widescreen  
(16:9) display with at least 720 progressively scanned lines (720p), 1080 interlaced lines  
(1080i), or scaled 1080 progressively scanned lines (1080p). HDTV provides  
900,000-2.1 million pixels. Please Note : 1080p is scaled to the panel’s native  
resolution and can only be achieved through the source, HDMI.

Television Antenna Connection Protection  
External Television Antenna Grounding  
If an outside antenna or cable system is to be connected to the LCD 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.  
Lightning Protection  
For added protection of the LCD TV during a lightning storm or when it is left  
unattended or unused for long periods of time, unplug the LCD 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.

digital video and audio at the same time. To view video and listen to audio  
with this source you must have a HDMI to HDMI cable. This type of  
connection is primarily used by satellite or digital cable boxes, up  
conversion DVD players, and HD DVD players.  
HDCP  
HDCP stands for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. This type of  
function is designed so high definition videos cannot be copied while hooked  
up to a recording device. HDCP is enabled in HDMI and in HDCP DVI mode.  
This type of connection is primarily used by satellite or digital cable boxes  
and up conversion DVD players. Please note to get sound out of HDCP mode  
you must connect an audio cable from your audio video device to the audio  
port labeled “Audio In”.  
DVI  
DVI stands for Digital Video Interface. This type of connection is designed so  
video can be digitally transferred to the television displaying the colors  
of any video more accurately and vividly. This interface can be used by PC

Universal Remote Code and Support  
Sceptre’s X37 LCD supports SONY’s universal remote code. Please look up SONY’s  
codes in your handbook of remote codes to setup your universal remote. Note : Due to  
the variety of universal remotes manufactured, not all universal remotes will fully  
function with the code. If you have trouble getting the channel or volume buttons to work,  
please try the directional buttons on your universal remote rather than your regularly used  
volume buttons.  
POWER  
This button turns the LCD Display unit on or off.  
Note : This is a passive power button and doesn’t physically cut  
power off to the TV but puts the TV into standby mode. When turning  
LCD on/off, wait 5-10 seconds before pressing the power button again.

Aspect Explained  
1.  
Auto  
This aspect ratio automatically adjust to the picture’s original format. If the signal  
is 16:9 the full screen will be used. If 4:3, black bars will be added on the side.  
16:9  
2.  
When watching a standard broadcast or full-frame movie in this mode, the display  
image is stretched horizontally to fill the TV screen. When watching a widescreen  
(16:9 source) program or movie, the display image fills the TV screen. If you are  
watching a widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1 source) program or movie, there will still  
be black bars at the top and bottom. Note : When in HD mode aspect ratios will  
not work because it is controlled by the signal.  
3.  
4:3  
The original 4:3 aspect ratio (1.33:1 source) is preserved, so black bars are added to  
the left and right of the display image. Standard TV broadcasts are displayed with a  
4:3 Aspect Ratio. Movies in 4:3 Aspect Ratio may be referred to as pan-and-scan or  
full frame. These movies were originally filmed in 16:9 (widescreen), and then  
modified to fit a traditional TV screen (4:3). Note : When in HD mode aspect  
ratios will not work because it is controlled by the signal.

4.  
Zoom Full  
When watching a 4:3 aspect ratio TV or movie, this mode zooms in to cut off most  
of the black bars on the side while preserving the 16:9 ratio. Because of the zoom,  
the top and bottom are cut off as well. Note : When in HD mode aspect ratios will  
not work because it is controlled by the signal.  
5.  
Zoom Subtitle  
This mode is primarily used when you’re watching a movie where the widescreen  
aspect ratio is not 16:9 but rather 1.85:1 or 2.35:1. Since black bars at the top and  
bottom, this zoom mode cuts off the top black bar but preserves the bottom for  
subtitle purposes. Note : When in HD mode aspect ratios will not work because it  
is controlled by the signal.

Closed Captions and Digital Closed Captions Explained  
Your TV is equipped with an internal Closed Caption decoder. It allows you to  
view conservations, narration and sound effects as subtitles on your TV.  
Closed Captions are available on most TV program, and on some VHS home  
video tapes, at the election of the program provider.  
Digital Closed Caption service is a new caption service available on digital TV  
programs (also at the election of the service provider). It is a more flexible  
system than the original Closed Caption system, because it allows a variety of  
caption sizes and font styles.  
Not all programs and VHS video tapes offer closed caption. Please look for the  
CC symbol to ensure that captions will be shown.  
In the Closed Caption system, there can be more than one caption service  
provided. Each is identified by its own number. The CC1 and CC2 services  
display subtitles of TV programs superimposed over the program’s picture.  
In the Closed Caption system, the TEXT1 or TEXT2 services display text that is  
unrelated to the program being viewed (e.g., weather or news). These services  
are also superimposed over the program currently being viewed.

Rating Explained  
General Operation

ratings function. MPAA lets you control ratings for movies you allow your children to  
watch on the TV. For regular TV programs you can use USTV settings. USTV settings  
lets you filter what content you want each age level, TV-Y, to TV-MA (refer to definitions

violence or comedic violence, or may frighten children under the age of 7. Therefore,  
parents may want to consider the suitability of this program for their very young children.
