Guide to Digital Light Processing® and DigitalTV  
What is Digital Light Processing® (DLP)?  
Digital Light Processing® is the world’s only all-digital display chip and a key ingredient in the best digital projectors available  
today. DLP® technology uses an optical semiconductor to recreate source material with fidelity analog systems cannot match.  
What is DigitalTelevision (DTV)?  
Digital Television (DTV) is a relatively new type of broadcasting that promises to transform television viewing into a whole new  
experience. Digital technology is used to capture images and sound to deliver a better picture quality. DTV technology is also  
capable of multicasting and interactive capabilities.  
There are many levels of digital television quality. The most common are:  
Standard DefinitionTV (SDTV)  
SDTV is the basic level of quality display and resolution for both analog and digital. Transmission of SDTV can be in the  
traditional (4:3) or widescreen (16:9) format.  
Enhanced DefinitionTV (EDTV)  
EDTV is better in picture quality than analog television. The formats for EDTV are 480p widescreen (16:9) or traditional (4:3).  
EDTV is in the middle range quality between SDTV and HDTV.  
High DefinitionTV (HDTV)  
HDTV has the highest quality for digital broadcast formats. Its resolution is widescreen format (16:9). Combined with digitally  
enhanced sound technology, HDTV sets new standards for sound and picture quality in television.  
DTV is by far a more flexible and efficient technology than the analog broadcast system.Analog broadcasts can only provide  
one program at a time. Digital television can broadcast a high definition program or more than one standard definition  
program at the same time.  
Preparation  
Do not insert the power plug in a wall socket before all  
connections are made.  
The major benefit of this DLP® projection television is its large viewing  
screen. To see the large screen at its best, test various locations in the  
room to find the optimal spot for viewing.  
Be sure to allow a minimum of 15 cm of space around the TV.  
To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet colour changes, and increased chance of  
set failure, do not place the TV where temperatures can become excessively  
hot – for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance.  
Magnetic fields, such as those of external speakers, may cause the picture  
to distort if the speakers are placed too close to the television. Move the  
magnetic field source away from the TV until there is no picture distortion.

Connections to theTV  
Your integrated digital TV automatically decodes and displays the four basic DTV  
picture resolution standards.  
- SDTV (Standard Definition TV) are broadcast as 480i (480-line interlaced) or 480p  
(480-line progressive scan) video.  
- HDTV (High-Definition TV) are broadcast either in the 1080i or 720p formats,  
always with a widescreen picture.  
Note: Progressive scan video (p) is more like that you see in a movie theater. Images are  
much more distinct and free of flicker, and motion is smoother.  
Next to analog NTSC broadcast reception, your TV has an integrated High Definition  
TV tuner which receives, decodes and displays terrestrial ATSC and unscrambled  
cable (QAM) signals.  
HDTV quality is only reproduced when a broadcaster or cable provider broadcasts  
HDTV signals.  
Note:Ask your broadcaster or cable box provider to transmit/enable HD content to your  
home.  
&
There are 2 ways to get HDTV content:  
- via cable,  
- via antenna.  
Note:This drawing is used wherever you can connect cable or antenna.  
Via Cable  
Connect the cable TV signal to the CABLE/ANTENNA jack at the bottom of  
the TV. See page 7 for details on using "Autoprogram" to store channels in the TV’s  
memory.  
Note: this connection will supply stereo sound to theTV if it is being broadcast by the station  
you are watching.  
& Cable box with RF IN/OUT  
• Connect the incoming cable TV signal to the cable IN jack 1 on the back of the  
cable box.  
• Connect a coaxial cable (not supplied) from the TO TV jack on the back of the  
cable box to the CABLE/ANTENNA jack 2 at the bottom of the TV.  
Note:Your cable box may have a different label for the TO TV jack, such as  
OUTPUT or OUT.  
é
• Set the OUTPUT CH switch 3 of the cable box to CH 3 or 4 (whichever is  
correct for your cable box), then tune the TV to the corresponding channel.  
Once tuned, change channels at the cable box, not the TV.  
CABLE  
Note:This connection will not supply stereo sound to theTV.The reason is that the RF  
output on a cable box - labeled TOTV, OUT or OUTPUT for example - will not send  
a stereo signal to the tuner (VHF/UHF) input on aTV.  
é Cable box with A/V outputs  
• Connect the incoming cable TV signal 1 to a signal splitter (not supplied).The  
signal splitter enables you to avoid having to use the TOTV jack on the back of  
the cable box.This jack will not supply stereo sound to the TV.  
Note:Your cable box may have a different label for theTO TV jack, such as  
OUTPUT or OUT.  
• Connect a coaxial cable (not supplied) to a connector on the signal splitter and to  
the CABLE/ANTENNA jack 2 on the TV.  
• Connect another coaxial cable (not supplied) to a connector on the signal splitter  
and to the cable IN jack 3 on the back of the cable box.  
• Connect A/V cables (not supplied) to the VIDEO and AUDIO L and R outputs  
on the back of the cable box and to the AV2 video (labeled VIDEO) and  
AUDIO (labeled L and R) jacks 4 on the back of the TV.  
To view programs from your cable box, first press the AV button on the remote  
control.  
• Press the cursor down or up buttons until the AV2 signal source is selected.  
• Press the OK button to confirm your selection.The AV2 input source becomes  
current for the viewing of cable TV programs through your cable box.  
Watching CableTV programs that  
don’t require the cable box  
Since you’ve connected the cable TV signal  
directly to the TV’s tuner, you can also watch the  
unscrambled programs by simply tuning to the  
desired channel.You must first use Autoprogram,  
however, to store channels in the TV’s memory.  
See page 7.  
Note:This connection will supply stereo sound to the  
TV if it is being broadcast by the station you are  
watching.  
Note: If your cable box Audio/Video outputs will not supply video and stereo audio to the  
TV, you will need to make the connection shown above in the example “Cable box with  
RF IN/OUT”.

Cable box with S-Video, component video (YPbPr)  
or HDMI connectors  
See Connect Accessory Devices, p. 22-23.  
Via Antenna  
Via antenna you can watch whatever DTV programs being broadcast in your area  
for free.  
If you’re not sure what HDTV programming is available in your area, contact your  
local content provider or your local electronics store retailer.  
Broadcasters are in the middle of a transition from analog to digital TV.This means  
that a given broadcaster will have two channels on the air, one analog and one  
digital.  
Connect the incoming antenna signal to the CABLE/ANTENNA jack at the  
bottom of the TV. See page 7 for details on using Autoprogram to store channels  
in the TV’s memory.  
Note:This connection will supply stereo sound to theTV if it is being broadcast by the  
station you are watching.  
Direct Broadcast Satellite (DBS)  
Satellite systems offer many of the same premium channels as cable systems, and  
often at a lower price.To get these channels, you’ll need to install a small dish  
antenna outside.  
There are 2 main DBS systems: DirecTV & DishNetwork.These systems require  
separate, proprietary set top receiver boxes to decode their signals and send them  
to your digital TV set.These boxes may include a digital TV tuner for off-air DTV  
broadcasts.  
Satellite broadcasters also provide major local channels, depending on the market  
in which you live.  
DBS also provides service in areas not covered by cable because they are in rural  
areas or other areas not passed by a cable line.  
DBS also allows you to watch pay-per-view events.  
Setting up theTV  
Connect all your accessory devices. See p. 22-24.  
Refer to the bottom of the set for the correct operation voltage. Insert the  
power cord in the wall socket.  
Consult your local dealer if your mains supply is different. To prevent damaging the  
power cord which could cause a fire or electric shock, do not place the TV on the  
cord.  
Setting up the remote control  
Insert the 2 batteries supplied. Be sure the (+) and (-) ends of the batteries line  
up correctly (inside of case is marked.)  
The batteries supplied do not contain the heavy metals mercury and cadmium. Please  
check on how to dispose of exhausted batteries according to local regulations.

• If an NTSC channel is tuned, then in Background Autoprogramming theTV will scan all the possible ATSC frequencies and update information.  
Weak channel installation :This allows you to manually tune weak ATSC channels in order to adjust the antenna and thus optimize signal quality for that  
channel. (See Installation menu,Weak channel installation, p. 8.)

Channel tuning  
Available channels:  
- Cable (analog NTSC or digital QAM): max. from 1 to 135  
- Antenna (analog NTSC or digital ATSC): max. from 2 to 69  
If a tuned channel is not yet in the master channel map, the TV will attempt  
to tune the channel and it will be added to the map.  
If the channel is not acquired, a message will appear that the channel is not  
available.  
Digital Channel selection delay  
Due to the tuning complexity of subchannel digital  
programming, the time to select and view a digital  
channel may take slightly longer than what the viewer  
is normally accustomed to (as compared to analog  
channel programs).  
Digital channel broadcasts contain program and  
system data information that must be processed  
before the channel selection can be displayed.  
When you tune an audio-only digital subchannel, a display appears with the  
message Audio only.  
Subchannel selections  
The new standards employed with digital broadcasting make it possible to receive  
multiple program channels under a single major channel number which can be  
selected by pressing the digit remote control direct-access channel number entry.

Glossary  
Active Control  
Aspect Ratio  
Active Control is a unique, intelligent and proactive control system. It ensures that the viewing experience is always optimal  
by automatically compensating and changing ambient light condition.  
The ratio between the width and height of the TV picture on the screen. In a normal TV set the aspect ratio is 4  
to 3 (4:3). The new aspect ratio in HDTV is 16:9 which resembles the aspect ratio in a movie theatre  
(Widescreen). New TV systems support both 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratio and can automatically switch between  
them.  
AudioVideo (A/V) A term often used when discussing a channel on a TV receiver or on video equipment, which has been especially designed  
to acceptVCR audio-video signals. This channel automatically activates special circuitry within the TV set to prevent picture  
distortion and skewing. It is also used for audio-video processors, which handle both types of signals.  
ATSC  
ATSC:Advanced Television Systems Committee. Formed to establish technical standards for advanced television systems,  
including digital high definition television (HDTV).  
CVBS  
CompositeVideo Baseband Signal. In broadcast television this refers to the video signal, including the colour information  
and syncs.  
CVI (Y Pb Pr)  
CVI (ComponentVideo Input) is a type of connection that uses a cinch-type connector to allow set top boxes or analog  
DVD players to connect a signal to the TV. By offering the cinch-type input (YPbPr) the primary colors, red, green and blue  
are connected from a set top box directly into the TV allowing for the signal to display on the screen.  
DTV  
Digital television. Generic term that refers to all digital television formats, including high-definition television (HDTV) and  
standard-definition television (SDTV).  
DOLBY Digital  
Dolby Digital - Six-channel digital audio standard that is part of the U.S. digital television standard; also called AC-3 or Digital  
5.1. The channels consist of front left, front right, front center, surround or rear left, surround or rear right, and a separate  
subwoofer  
Digital Tuner  
HDTV  
A digital tuner serves as the decoder required to receive and display digital broadcasts. It can be included inside TV sets or  
via a set-top box.  
The generally agreed upon definition of HDTV is approximately twice the vertical and horizontal picture resolution of  
today’s NTSC TV, which essentially makes the picture twice as sharp. HDTV also has a screen ratio of 16:9 as compared  
with most of today’s TV screens, which have a screen ratio of 4:3. HDTV offers reduced motion artifacts (i.e. ghosting, dot  
crawl), and offers 5.1 independent channels of CD-quality stereo surround sound, (also referred to as AC-3).  
NTSC  
National television system committee. The organization that developed the analog television standard currently in use in the  
U.S., Canada, and Japan. Now generally used to refer to that standard. The NTSC standard combines blue, red, and green  
signals modulated as an AM signal with an FM signal for audio.  
Progressive Scan  
Resolution  
In Progressive Scanning all the horizontal scan lines are scanned on to the screen at one time. The Digital TV and HDTV  
Standards accept both Interlaced Scan and Progressive Scan broadcast and display methods.  
Resolution:A measurement of the finest (smallest) detail that is visible in a video image.TV Resolutions may be expressed as  
number of pixels in an image; or more commonly,As Total Number of (horizontally scanned) Lines used to create the  
image.  
Standard Digital TV Resolutions:  
SDTV: 480i - The picture is 704x480 pixels, 480p - The picture is 704x480 pixels.  
HDTV: 720p - The picture is 1280x720 pixels, 1080i - The picture is 1920x1080 pixels, 1080p - The picture is 1920x1080  
pixels.  
SPDIF  
SPDIF (Sony and Philips Digital Interconnect Format) is highly recommended for high quality digital sound output.

Care and Cleaning  
To avoid possible shock hazard, be sure theTV is unplugged from the electrical outlet before cleaning.  
• Regularly dust theTV with a dry, non-scratching duster to keep theTV clean.  
When cleaning theTV, take care not to scratch or damage the screen surface. Avoid wearing jewelry when  
cleaning theTV. Do not use household cleaners. Wipe the front screen with a clean cloth dampened with  
water. Use even, easy, vertical strokes when cleaning.  
Specially designed screen-cleaning kits are available. These kits contain anti-static cleaners and cloths designed  
to get into the ridges of theTV screen. Purchase the kits at stores that sell electronics or call our Customer  
Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.  
• Gently wipe the cabinet surfaces with a clean cloth or sponge dampened in a solution of cool, clean water  
and a mild soap or detergent. Use a clean, dry cloth to dry the wiped surfaces.  
• Occasionally vacuum the ventilation holes or slots on the back cover of the set.  
Never use thinners, insecticide sprays or other chemicals on or near the cabinet, as they might cause  
permanent marring of the cabinet finishing.
