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 (- pages 16, 17 and 19).

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.

Dual-wand IR blaster cable

Standard A/V cables (red/white/yellow)

Dual-wand IR blaster cable is for use with video devices with

IR (infrared) remote control. This cable can be used with the

TV’s IR pass-through feature (- page 15).

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.

To obtain IR blaster cable:

Visit http://ceaccessories.toshiba.com/

Optical audio cable

S-video cable

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 18).

S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video

output. Separate audio cables are required for a complete

connection.

Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable

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.

Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable is for connecting a PC to

the TV’s PC IN terminal (- page 19).

Component video cables (red/green/blue)

Note: Separate audio cables are required for a complete

connection.

Component video cables come in sets of three and are for use

with video devices with component video output.

About the connection illustrations

(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.

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: Component video cables provide better picture

performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video

cable.

Install two “AA” size alkaline batteries. Match the + and

– symbols on the batteries to the symbols on the battery

compartment.

If you have a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device

that the remote control is not preprogrammed to

operate:

You can program the TV remote control so it will operate the

other device (- pages 22–32).

Slide the battery cover on to the remote control until the

lock snaps.

Caution: Batteries must not be exposed to excessive heat

such as sunshine, fire or the like.

Note:

• Be sure to use AA size alkaline batteries.

• Dispose of batteries in a designated disposal area.

• Batteries should always be disposed of with the

environment in mind. Always dispose of batteries in

accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

• If the remote control does not operate correctly, or if the

operating range becomes reduced, replace batteries with

new ones.

• When necessary to replace batteries in the remote control,

always replace both batteries with new ones. Never mix

battery types or use new and used batteries in combination.

• Always remove batteries from the remote control if they are

dead or if the remote control is not to be used for an

extended period of time. This will prevent battery acid from

leaking into the battery compartment.

Chapter 3: Using the remote control

Using the remote control to operate Programming the remote control to

your other devices

operate your other devices

Your TV remote control has one dedicated TV mode and four

programmable multi-brand modes: CABLE/SAT, HD DVD,

DVD, and VCR/PVR. The default device modes and

programmable device modes are listed below.

Device code setup

Find the code for your device brand in the remote control

device code table on pages 26–32.

Note: The TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate

most Toshiba devices. To operate a non-Toshiba device or a

Toshiba device that the remote control is not preprogrammed

to operate, you will need to program the remote control. See

“Programming the remote control to operate your other

devices” (at right).

If more than one code is listed, try each one separately

until you find one that works.

Press the applicable mode select button (CABLE/SAT,

HD DVD, DVD, or VCR/PVR), until the mode select

button blinks 3 times.

Default device mode control (before

• If a valid code is entered, the mode select button will

blink twice.

• If an invalid code is entered, the mode select button will

blink one long blink.

• If the device responds to the remote control, you have

entered the correct code.

• If the device does not respond to the remote control,

repeat steps 3 and 4 using another code.

Note: After programming the remote control, make sure

all necessary keys on the TV remote control (in addition to

p) 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.

Multi-brand video/audio devices

VCR/PVR

Note: Although your new TV’s remote control includes codes

for many devices, it may not include codes for some or all of

the features on certain devices you wish to control. If you are

unable to program the TV’s remote control to operate your

device or some of the features on that device, use the device’s

remote control or the controls on the device.

To control the TV, press the “TV” mode select button.

Note:

• Although the TV remote control includes codes for many

devices, it may not include codes for some or all of the

features on certain devices you want to control. If you are

unable to program the TV remote control to operate your

device or some of the features on that device, use the

device’s original remote control (or the control buttons on

the device).

• 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.

Chapter 3: Using the remote control

Searching and sampling the code of a

Using the volume lock feature (8000)

device (8500)

By default (factory setting), the remote control’s volume keys

(z Z and W) are locked to the “TV” device mode.

The remote control will operate the TV’s volume, even when

“TV” is not the current device mode.

If you unlock the remote control’s volume keys, each device

mode will have its own volume (if the device ID has volume

data). The remote control will operate the volume of the device

associated with the current device mode.

If you do not know the device code for a particular device, you

can cycle the remote control through the available codes for

that device mode and sample the functions to find the code that

operates the target device. The keys available to be sampled,

provided they are applicable to that mode, are p, 1, z, <,

and S. Invalid keys will be ignored while in program mode.

To cycle through each available device code and

sample its functions:

If you lock the remote control’s volume keys to a specific

device mode, the remote control will operate the volume of the

device associated with the locked mode, even when the locked

mode is not the current device mode.

See “Using the remote control to operate your other devices”

on page 24.

Press the appropriate mode select button on the remote

control.

While holding down E, press 8, 5, 0, 0. The remote

control will enter program mode.

To lock the remote control’s volume keys to a specific

mode (CABLE/SAT in this example):

Point the remote control at the target device and press p

(or other function buttons that are available to be

sampled).

Press CABLE/SAT.

If the device responds to the remote control:

While holding down the E button, press 8, 0, 0, 0.

Press E to store the device code. The mode select

button will blink two times and the remote control will

exit the program mode.

Press z. The CABLE/SAT mode select button will blink

two times (locked).

The remote control’s volume keys will now operate the

volume of the device associated with the CABLE/SAT

mode, even when CABLE/SAT is not the current device

mode.

If the device does not respond to the remote control:

Press B, and then press p. Repeat this step until the

device responds to the remote control, and then press

Note: When a search cycle is completed, the mode select

button will blink three times. The remote control will begin

to cycle through the available codes again. If no key is

pressed within 10 seconds during programming, the

remote control will exit the program mode and return to the

previous code.

To unlock the remote control’s volume keys:

While holding down E, press 8, 0, 0, 0.

Press Z. The CABLE/SAT mode select button will blink

four times.

The CABLE/SAT mode will be unlocked.

Operational feature reset (8900)

This feature clears all programmed remote control features not

related to “Device code setup” and resets the volume lock to

the “TV” device mode.

To reset the remote control:

While holding down E, press 8, 9, 0, 0. The mode select

button will respond with four blinks.

Switching between two channels using

Channel Return

Selecting the picture size

The Channel Return feature allows you to switch between two

channels without entering an actual channel number each time.

You can view many program formats in a variety of picture

sizes—Natural, TheaterWide 1, TheaterWide 2,

TheaterWide 3, Full, 4:3 HD, Native, and Dot by Dot.

Select the first channel you want to view.

Note: The “picture size” illustrations are examples only. The

format of the image (in any of the picture sizes) will vary

depending on the format of the signal you are currently

watching. Select the picture size that displays the current

program the way that looks best to you.

Select a second channel using the Channel Number

buttons (and the dash (=) button if selecting a digital

channel).

Press R on the remote control. The previous channel

will display. Each time you press R, the TV will switch

back and forth between the last two channels that were

tuned.

You can save separate picture size preferences for each input

on your TV.

Select Picture Size in the Theater Settings menu.

Press C or c to select the desired picture size setting.

Highlight Done and press T.

Note: Some of the picture sizes may not be available

depending on the receiving signal format (those will be

“grayed out” in the Picture Size screen).

You can then change channels repeatedly, and when you

press R, the memorized channel will be tuned.

Using these functions to change the picture size (i.e.,

changing the height/ width ratio) for any purpose other than

your private viewing may be prohibited under the Copyright

Laws of the United States and other countries, and may

The TV will return to the memorized channel one time only.

Once you press R and then change channels again, the CH

RTN memory will be cleared and the button will function as

two channels that are tuned.This feature also works for

external inputs.
