Digital TV - Set-Top Box (DTV-STB) or DVD
Connection
This television is capable of displaying 1080i and 480p DTV
signals when connected to a DTV tuner set-top-box (STB). In
order to view DTV programming, the STV must be connected
to the component video inputs (Y,PB,PR) of the television. A
DTV signal must be available in your area. Select the output of
the STB to either 1080i or 480p.
This television also utilizes a progressive scan doubler, which
de-interlaces the NTSC signal and progressively scans the
image. This allows you to sit close to the TV and not see the
thin black horizontal lines (venetian blind effect) associated
with interlaced TV pictures.
Use this diagram to connect the DTV-STB (Digital TV Set-Top-
Box) or DVD player to the television.
Front Control Panel
The front control panel can be used to access menus and
switch video mode when the remote control is not
available.
A second VCR, Camcorder, a video disc player, video
game equipment or DSS equipment can also be connected
to the video inputs. See the optional equipment manual for
details.
Procedure
• Connect equipment to front Audio/Video input jacks.
• Press TV/VIDEO button to select VIDEO 4 input mode.
• Operate optional equipment as instructed in equipment
manual.
