HDMI™ cable
Overview of cable types
Standard A/V cables (red/white/yellow)
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) cable is for use
with devices with HDMI output. HDMI cable delivers digital
audio and video in its native format. HDMI cable carries both
video and audio information; therefore, separate audio cables
are not required for a complete HDMI device connection (-
page 14).
Standard A/V cables (composite video and analog audio)
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 monitor) are typically
color-coded according to use: yellow for video, red for stereo
right audio, and white for stereo left (or mono) audio.
Note: HDMI cable provides better picture performance than a
standard (composite) video or S-video cable.
Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable

Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable is for connecting a PC to
the monitor’s PC IN terminal (- page 15).
S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video
output. Separate audio cables are required for a complete
connection.
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.
About the connection illustrations
You can connect different types and brands of devices to your
monitor 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.
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.

The HDMI input on your monitor receives digital audio and
uncompressed digital video from an HDMI source device, or
uncompressed digital video from a DVI (Digital Visual
Interface) source device.
• one pair of standard analog audio cables per DVI device
This input is designed to accept HDCP (High-Bandwidth
Digital-Content Protection) program material in digital form
from EIA/CEA-861-861B–compliant[1] consumer electronic
devices (such as a set-top box or DVD player with HDMI or
DVI output).
– An HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable transfers video only.
Separate analog audio cables are required (see
illustration).
– See “Setting the HDMI™ audio mode” on page 24.
The HDMI input is designed for best performance with 1080i
signals but will also accept and display 480i, 480p and 720p
signals.

Caution: Never throw batteries into a fire.
Preparing the remote control
for use
Note:
• Be sure to use AAA size 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.
Your monitor’s remote control can operate your monitor and
many other devices such as cable converter boxes, satellite
receivers, VCRs, DVD players, and HTIBs (home theater in a
box), even if they are different brands.
If you have a Toshiba device:
• 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.
Your monitor’s remote control is preprogrammed to operate
most Toshiba devices (- page 20).
If you have a non-Toshiba device or a Toshiba device
that the remote control is not preprogrammed to
operate:
• 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.
You can program the monitor’s remote control so it will
operate the other device (- pages 18–22).

Chapter 3: Using the remote control
Programming the remote control
to operate your other devices
Your Toshiba monitor’s remote control is preprogrammed to
operate most Toshiba devices. To program your monitor’s
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 18.
1
2
In the remote control code table (- page 21), find the
code for your device. If more than one code is listed, try
each one separately until you find one that works.
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), DVD (for a DVD player or HTIB [home theater
in a box]), or VCR (for a VCR or TV/VCR combo).
3
4
While holding down E, press the Channel Number
buttons to enter the 3-digit code for your device.
To test the code, turn on the device, point the remote
control at it, and press p. (Also 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 device’s original remote control.
5
6
Remember to set the MODE SELECT Switch back to
“TV” to control the monitor.
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
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.

Chapter 7: Troubleshooting
Poor color or no color
General troubleshooting
• Adjust the Tint and/or Color (- page 30).
• When the ColorStream® signal source is active, the
VIDEO OUT terminal outputs blank video. To receive
video from the VIDEO OUT signal, a standard video or
S-video IN terminal must be used instead of the
ColorStream® connections.
Before calling a service technician, please check this section
for a possible cause of the problem and some solutions you can
try.
Black box on screen
Poor composite or S-video picture
• If the image is poor when the monitor 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.
• 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 32).
Monitor stops responding to controls
Picture and sound are out of sync
• If the monitor stops responding to the controls on the
remote control or monitor control panel and you cannot
turn off the monitor, press and hold the POWER button
on the monitor control panel for 5 or more seconds to
reset the monitor.
• 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 monitor,
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:
Monitor will not turn on
• Make sure the power cord is plugged in, and then press
p.
• The remote control batteries may be dead. Replace the
batteries or try the control panel buttons.
– If the monitor 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.
Picture problems
General picture problems
• Press + on the remote control or INPUT on the monitor
control panel and select a valid video input source (-
page 25). If no device is connected, no picture will
display when you select that particular input source. For
device connection details, see page 10.
• Adjust the picture qualities (- page 29).
• If you are using a VCR, make sure L on the remote
control is set correctly (- page 18).
• If you have two VCRs connected to your monitor, make
sure you have not connected the same VCR to the
monitor’s output and input connections at the same time.
• Do not connect both a standard video cable and an
S-video cable to the VIDEO-2 inputs at the same time
(- page 13).
Sound problems
• The sound may be muted. Press VOLUME.
Remote control problems
• Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device
mode (- page 18).
• Remove all obstructions between the remote control and
the monitor.
• The remote control batteries may be dead. Replace the
batteries (- page 16).
• The monitor’s remote control may not operate certain
features on your external device. Refer to the owner’s
manual for your other device to determine its available
features. If the monitor’s remote control does not operate
a specific feature on the device, use the remote control
provided with the device (- pages 18–22).
Noisy picture
• If you are watching a tuned analog channel (off-air
broadcast or Cable TV), set the CableClear®/DNR
feature to Auto to reduce visible interference in the
monitor’s picture (- page 31).
Video Input Selection problems
• If the program list does not appear when you press + on
the remote control or INPUT on the monitor control
panel, press the button a second time, which will change
the monitor to the next video input source and display the
program list.

Closed caption problems
• If the program or video you selected is not closed-
captioned, no captions will display on-screen
(- page 32).
• If text is not available, a black rectangle may appear on-
screen. If this happens, turn off the closed caption feature
(- page 32).
• 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 32).
