Understanding Video Connections
Your Micro Chip Display Projection TV has four types of standard video connections.
You should use the best connection available to get the best display. For example, if
your DVD player supports a component video connection, connect the DVD Player
to your Micro Chip Display Projection TV using component video instead of
composite video or S-Video.
Connection
Quality
Cable and
Connector
Description
Base
Coaxial (RF). The video and audio signals are
both carried in one cable (the other three
connection types only handle video, and
require separate connections for sound).
Coaxial is the only way to connect an antenna
to your RPTV.
Good
Better
Composite. The video signal is carried through
a single “pin.” This connection method is the
one that is most commonly found on devices.
S-Video. The video signal is split into two
signals, black-and-white and color. Text
displayed on-screen through this connection
will be noticeably sharper than composite or
coaxial (RF).
Best
Component. The video signal is split into three
signals, two colors, and one black-and-white.
Use component video to take advantage of the
superior picture provided by signal such
sources as HDTV and progressive DVD.

Do not use substances such as glass cleaners, solvents, and thinners.
The screen of your RPTV has been specially treated. Wipe the surface
gently using only a cleaning cloth or a soft, lint-free cloth.
If the surface is particular dirty, use a soft cloth and water to clean the screen.

Use the following information to solve common problems.
You cannot see a picture
ꢀMake sure that the power cord is plugged into a grounded electrical outlet.
ꢀMake sure that the power button is turned on.
ꢀLook in the left air vent to see if the lamp is on.
ꢀMake sure that the selected input source is connected to a working input
source.
ꢀIf your RPTV is connected to your computer in RGB mode, press any key
on your keyboard to “wake” your computer.
You see a distorted picture or hear unusual sound
ꢀYou may be getting interference from electrical appliances, cars,motorcycles,
or fluorescent lights. Try moving your RPTV to another location.
The color is abnormal
ꢀMake sure that the input source cable is connected securely and correctly
to the back of your RPTV.
The picture has abnormal patterns
ꢀMake sure that the input source cable is attached securely and correctly to
the back of your RPTV.
ꢀMake sure that the video input source is within the range of your RPTV.
Compare the video input source’s specifications with your RPTV
specifications.
The display image does not cover the entire screen
ꢀIf you are using TV, AV1, AV2, or component with 480i input, use the
SCREEN WIDTH or WIDE button on the remote control to scroll through
various screen modes.
Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.
You can see a picture but you cannot hear sound
ꢀMake sure that the volume is not turned down.
ꢀMake sure that the sound is not muted.
ꢀMake sure that the internal speakers are turned on.
ꢀMake sure that your audio input source cables are connected securely and
correctly.
The monitor has pixels that are always dark
ꢀYour RPTV is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision
technology. However, sometimes some pixels of your RPTV may not
display. Pixel defects within industry specifications are inherent to this type
of product and do not constitute a defective product..
You see “noise” or “trash” on the screen
ꢀWhen your RPTV’s digital capabilities exceed a digital broadcast signal, the
signal is up-converted (increased) to match your RPTV’s display capabilities.
Up-converting can cause noise or trash.
Screen brightness is diminished
ꢀVideo display devices experience degradation of brightness over the life of
the device. Normal brightness degradation is not covered by your warranty.
