SELECTING THE INPUT SIGNAL
The procedure for selecting the input signal
described here is for use with the remote control.
However, the INPUT SELECT button on the plas-
ma display can also be used in the same way.
Displaying the Current Input Signal
1
Press the DISPLAY button.
The name of the current input terminal is dis-
played on the screen.
2 To clear the name of the current input terminal,
press the DISPLAY button again or wait for a
few seconds.
NOTE:
•To redisplay the name of the input terminal, press
the DISPLAY button again.
Selecting the Input Signal
1 Press the INPUT SELECT button to select the
input signal.
Each time you switch the input signal, the
name of the selected input terminal is dis-
played on the display for a few seconds.
The INPUT SELECT button cycles through the
input terminals in the following pattern:
Video 1
(S-Video 1)
Video 2
(S-Video 2)
Component 1
Component 2
NOTE:
• When switching the input signal, audio mute turns
ON temporarily.
• S-VIDEO1 takes preference over the VIDEO 1 jack,
as does S-VIDEO 2 over the VIDEO 2 jack. Therefore,
if there is input to the VIDEO and S-VIDEO terminals
at the same time, the S-VIDEO signal is displayed on
the screen. If the S-VIDEO cable is not connected to
the plasma display, the VIDEO signal will be dis-
played on the screen.
•Any of the following display formats: 480i, 480p (pro-
gressive), 1080i and 720p (progressive) signals can
be connected to the COMPONENT1 and 2 terminals.
If one of these video signals is detected, the format
of the input signal is displayed after the name of the
current input terminal as the following.
•A "No signal" message appears if there is no video
signal and there is no message currently displayed
on the screen for volume adjustment or the setup
menu, etc. If there continues to be no video signal
for some seconds, "No signal" slowly moves around
the screen.
• If there is no video signal and there has been no
operation from the remote control or the buttons on
the main unit for more than 15 minutes, the auto
shut-off function activates and the display switches
to standby mode.
