Choose the type of connection for the type of equipment you have.

If you are having difficulty making the connections to your TV, you may want to contact your Mitsubishi dealer or your local cable company.

This section explains the, following connections:

TV + antenna or cable without a cable box,

TV + cable with a cable box,

TV + separate UHF and VHF antennas,

TV + cable with a cable box equipment you will need

Use this hook-up if you do not need a cable box to descramble basic cable channels, but you do need a cable box to descramble premium cable channels.

This hook-up will allow you to use your TV's advanced channel changing features, such as SuperQuickView, while watching basic cable channels on Antenna-A.

To complete the hook-up, you'll need: one two-way splitter, and

OUT OUT three lengths of 75 ohm coaxial cables.

j procedure

O Connect the incoming cable to the IN terminal on the two-way splitter.

O Connect a coaxial cable to one of the OUT terminals on the splitter; connect the other end of thi,_ cable to the ANT-A terminal on the back of the TV.

Connect the second coaxial cable to the second OUT terminal on the same splitter; connect the other end of this cable to the

(There are different comb!iners

for different kinds of wires.

Check with your local electronics store for the kind of combiner you need.)

Using the closed caption decoder

Many broadcasters now supply closed captioning information along with their regular broadcasts.

Your TV can decode that information and display it on the TV screen.

Closed captioning was initially designed so that those with hearing difficulties could more fully enjoy viewing television, ttowever, closed captioning can also be used in other ways, such as:

• helping children learn to read,

• learning a foreign language, and

• using the television without disturbing others.

There are two types of captioning that broadcasters standard and text.

can send:

Standard captioning is related to the program that is being shown.

Standard captioning usual].y

follows the dialogue of the characters on-screen and only displays when the broadcaster is sending the closed captioning.

Text captioning often contains information such as weather or news.

Text captioning blocks out your view of the program you are watching.

Your TV can decode four different standard captioning signals and four different text captioning signals from each TV station.

However, each station may be broadcasting only one or two captioning signals, or none at all.

When setting the decoder you can choose:

Customizing the A/V memolw position ,(cont.)

Adjusting the sound

This section contains descriptions for each audio setting and explains how to adjust them for the A/V memory positions.

descriptions of audio settings

The Listen to: function allows you to determine how your TV will receive an audio signal and play back tlhe sound that you hear.

You can set this function to "Stereo," "S.A.P.," and "Mono."

• For almost all situations, you shouhi choose Stereo. With this setting, the TV will play stereo broadcasts in stereo and mono broadcasts in mono.

]:f a channel is broadcasting in stereo, the word "Stereo" will display when you tune to that channel.

• Some TV stations will broadcast second audio program, or

S.A.P. signal.

This signal is an additional soundtrack that you can't hear during normal TV viewing.

An S.A.P. signal might be related to the program you are watching (e.g., a ,mundtrack in a foreign language), or it might be unrelated (e.g., a weather report).

If a channel is broadcasting an S.A.P.

signal, the letters

"SAP" will appear on-screen when you tune to that channel.

Choose "Listen to: SAP" to hear the S.A.P. signal.

• Use the Mono setting if you are receiving a weak audio signal.

This setting will reduce background noise. However, with this setting, the TV will only play in mono, even if the program you are watching is in stereo.

The Bass setting controls the volume of low frequency sound.

The Treble setting controls the volume of high frequency sound.

The Balance setting adjusts the level of sound between the left and right speakers.

Adjust the scale until the sound seems to come equally from both speakers.

The Surround setting creates simulated stereo and. surround effects. You can set this setting to "Off,:" "Simulate," or "Hall."

• Select Off if you do not want to u,_e any surround effects.

• Select Simulate if you are watching a non-stereo program; your

TV will create a simulated stereo effect.

• Select Hall if you are watching a stereo program; your TV will create a simulated surround effect, making the sound seem to extend around and behind you using the TV's internal speakers.

The Speaker function allows you to turn the TV's internal speakers on or off.

• Choose On if you want to play the TV's sound through the TV's built-in speakers.

• Choose Off if you connected your audio system to your TV and you want to play the sound of your TV through the audio system.

Chapter 3: Operating Your TV

Customizing the A/V memory position (cont.)

The Monitor Out function determines how the TV will send an audio signal to an audio system or home theatre receiver.

,four choices are "Variable" or "Fixed".

• If you choose Fixed, the TV will send out an audio signal at a fixed volume level.

The level will not change when you adjust the TV's volume.

Use the controls on your audio system to adjust the volume.

The :fixed setting is most useful when you can control the audio system's volume with a remote control.

• If you choose Variable, the TV's audio output will change when you adjust the TV's volume.

If you use this setting with an audio system, turn the :FV's volume all the way down, set the audio system's volume to an average s_,tting, and then adjust the TV's volume until you carl hear the signal.

_Important:

For proper tone and volume balance, you should turn off the TV's speakers when using an external audio system.

[:>Important:

If you have connected your TV to a Dolby Prologic Surround receiver, or Dolby Surround receiver using the TV's variable audio output, please set the Audio surround mode to "off". If your TV's surround setting is "simulate" or "hall", the surround receiver may not provide the proper surround sound effect.

the Active A/V Network Feature

This A/V Network is a special featur_ that makes :it easier to use your television and your other A/V components together.

When you connect the A/V Network, you can point the remote control at the television, and it will "pass" the remote control command to the other components.

Additionally, you will gain even more benefits if you have a

Mitsubishi VCR equipped fi)r the Active A/V Network.

The Active

A/V Network allows you to perform many of the commonly used features of your system at the press of just one button.

This section will explain the various features of the Active A/V

Network.

before you begin

You must have connected an A/V Network cable from the Active

A/V Network terminal of your q_ to the A/V Network IN terminal of your VCR.

• You must have set your TV's "A/V Network" setting to "Active" or "Basic".

See "Setting the A/V Network," in Chapter 3.

• Your VCR's remote control switch (if any) should be set to"VCR-

AoH

• Use the PIP Channel Selector to scan the PIP channels.

To access a channel directly, :you must select VCR-A on the remote control, then use the number pad.

If you leave the TV turned on, set to EXT--1, but the TV is not receiving a signal on EXT-1, :it will automatically turn off after five minutes.

(If you use a TV menu during this time, the TV will turn off five minutes after you stop using the menus.)

You should not press the PIP button while you are watching a channel that is not receiving any broadcasts.

YOUwill not be able to see the small PIP image, and you will not be able to change channels on the main image.
