B roadcasters can send either standard or text closed captioning.

Standard closed captioning follows the dialogue of the characters on-screen and displays in a small section of the screen.

Text closed captioning often contains information such as weather or news and covers a large portion of the on-screen program.

Your TV can decode four different standard and four different text closed captioning signals from each TV station. However, each station may broadcast only one or two closed captioning signals, or none at all.

Your Mitsubishi Projection TV has three picture tubes with large diameter lenses which are aligned to properly converge the projected light beams on the screen. Each picture tube projects only one color: red, green or blue.

During production, your television was carefully adjusted to properly align these colors.

As a special feature, you have the ability to adjust the color convergence, should you think that the red and/or blue light beams are out of alignment. The green beam acts as a fixed reference for aligning the red and blue beams.

Descriptions of video settings

IRIS

™

is the Intelligent Room Illumination (light) Sensor. When IRIS is on, your TV will automatically adjust the picture contrast and brightness for the best picture based on your room lighting.

When turned on, Contrast and Brightness cannot be adjusted manually.

Contrast provides a slider that controls the level of white-to-black in the picture. Low contrast will show a variety of shades in the darker images on the screen. High contrast will show the screen’s dark images more uniformly black and make the colors on the screen seem more vibrant.

Brightness provides a slider that controls the overall brightness of the picture.

Auto Picture for Ant-A and Ant-B, senses the tuner signal strength. It adjusts picture color and sharpness for the best picture. When turned on, sharpness and color cannot be adjusted manually.

Sharpness provides a slider that adjusts the detail and clarity of the picture.

Color provides a slider that determines the intensity of the color.

Tint provides a slider that adjusts the proportion of red to green in the picture.

Color Temp (Color temperature) allows you to set how the TV will display white images. Your choices are “Low 6500K or Low (for HD)”, “High” or “Medium.”

• With the Low 6500K or Low (for HD) setting, white images onscreen will have a warm cast to them. This adjustment is an average and can vary due to ambient room lighting, video scene brightness and the TV’s age. The Low 6500K represents the

6500˚K industry standard for NTSC (non-HD) pictures.

• With the High setting, white images on-screen will have a cool cast to them. This setting may provide the most realistic picture under bright lighting.

• With the Medium setting, white images on-screen will be balanced between the Low (warm) and High (cool) settings.

Video Noise reduces minor video noise (graininess) in the broadcast or input signal.

56


Adjusting the sound

Descriptions of audio settings

Bass enhances or reduces low frequency sound.

Treble enhances or reduces high frequency sound

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

Surround creates simulated stereo and surround effects. You can set this setting to “Off”,

“Simulated Stereo” or “Surround Sound”. Select:

• Off when you do not want to use any surround effects. Set the surround setting to “Off” when using an A/V receiver with

Dolby

®

Pro Logic Surround, or Dolby Digital Surround.

• Simulated Stereo when you are watching a non-stereo program. Your TV will create a simulated stereo effect by using the

TV’s speakers.

• Surround Sound when you are watching a stereo program.

Your TV’s internal speakers will create a simulated surround effect, making the sound seem to extend around and behind you.

Listen to for Ant-A or Ant-B determines how your TV will receive a broadcast audio signal and play back the sound that you hear. You can set this function to “Stereo”, “SAP” or “Mono.”

• Stereo is the default setting. With this setting, the TV will play stereo broadcasts in stereo and mono broadcasts in mono. The word “Stereo” will be displayed when you tune to a channel broadcasting stereo programming.

• SAP is an additional monaural soundtrack that you can’t hear during normal TV viewing. The SAP signal might be related to the program you are watching, such as a soundtrack in a foreign language, or it might be unrelated such as a weather report. If the SAP signal is broadcast, the letters “SAP” will appear onscreen when you tune to that channel. Choose “Listen to: SAP” to hear the SAP signal.

• Mono will reduce background noise and should be used if you are receiving a weak stereo audio signal. The sound will be only in mono even if the program you are watching has stereo audio.

PIP Audio Output is available on models WT-46805, WS-55805, WS-55905, WS-65905 and WS-

73905. Stereo, SAP, Mono or DTV languages, as available, can be heard through an amplifier or wireless headphones connected to the PIP AUDIO outputs (on the back of the television). This feature allows you to hear sound that is being broadcast through the displayed PIP. Once connected, if the PIP is not displayed you will be able to hear the main TV program through the headphones.

If the PIP input’s Audio Output cannot be adjusted, then the letters “N/A” will appear on-screen, when this feature is chosen.

Level Sound automatically equalizes the volume level of programs that contain significant sound level differences from one segment to another, for example: regular programming to commercials.

To receive the best audio fidelity for music programs, you may want to turn this setting to Off.

To turn off the PIP or POP, wait more than ten seconds and press PIP/POP.

The next time the PIP/POP is used, the last selected PIP or POP will be the first shown.

PIP INPUT

PIP INPUT

To see a picture in the PIP inset, you may need to select an input source. If the only input you have connected is ANT A, then both the main picture and the PIP or POP will both be from ANT A.

If you have connected other video equipment, you may be able to view pictures coming from these products in the PIP/POP inset or as the main picture.

Below is a list of main picture and PIP or POP sources that cannot be used together:

• When Ant-A is the main picture, Ant-B cannot be the PIP/POP source.

• When DTV 480p, HD, or DVD 480p is the main picture, PIP/

POP is not available from any input or antenna.

• When DTV is the main picture, component video from

INPUT-3 cannot be the PIP/POP source.

• When Component video from INPUT-3 is the main picture,

DTV cannot be the PIP/POP source.

• For widescreen models in the side-by-side mode, the same

picture cannot be shown in the main picture and side-by-side.

To see if DTV 480p, HD or DVD 480p is the main picture, press the INFO button. The on-screen display will list 480P or HD 16:9 when those signals are received.

Warning:

Don’t display the same stationary images on the screen for more than 15% of your total TV viewing in one week. Examples of stationary images are letterbox top/bottom bars from DVD disc or other video sources, side bars when showing standard TV pictures on widescreen TV’s, stock market reports, video game patterns, station logos, web sites or stationary computer images. Such patterns can unevenly age the picture tubes causing permanent damage to the TV. Please see page 74 for a detailed explanation.

Formats

Widescreen models WT-46805, WS-55805, WS-55905, WS-65905 and WS-73905

Pressing the FORMAT button will cycle through the three different picture shapes or formats that can be used with traditional TV broadcasts, videotapes, laser discs, some DVDs and some DTV broadcasts. The three formats are:

• Standard - The picture is the traditional TV shape in the center of the screen with gray sidebars. If this is a letterbox picture, there will be black bars at the top and bottom.

• Expand - The picture is stretched left-to-right to fill the screen with no loss of picture resolution. Letterbox pictures will still have black bars at the top and bottom.

• Zoom - After expanding the picture left-to-right, Zoom will stretch the picture top-to-bottom, and there may be some loss of picture at the top and bottom. This format will reduce or remove the black bars from letterbox pictures.

All HD signals (1080i) and DTV 480p or DVD 480p signals will automatically fill the screen from top-to-bottom and left-to-right and the FORMAT button will be disabled.

The FORMAT button can be used during POP functions if closed captions are turned off.

Anamorphic Pictures

Some DVD discs might have anamorphic pictures. Anamorphic pictures are specially designed for display on widescreen TVs (the DVD player should be set to “TV Shape 16:9”). We recommend using the Expand format with these programs to enjoy the benefits of full screen display, proper image shape and high resolution. Some anamorphic pictures are in special movie theater widescreen shapes and might be marked “aspect ratio 2.35:1”. These images will still show small black bars at the top and bottom of the screen when displayed in the Expand format.

Standard shape models VS-50805 and VS-60805

These models have two different shapes or formats for use with traditional TV broadcasts, videotapes, laser discs, standard DVD players (not DVD 480p). The formats are:

• Standard - The picture fills the screen. Letterbox pictures will have black bars at the top and bottom.

• Wide - The picture is compressed from top-to-bottom and black bars are added at the top and bottom. This format is recommended only for anamorphic DVDs. This will allow full picture resolution and correct the picture shape. It is important that the DVD player be set to “TV

Shape 16:9”, otherwise the picture will appear stretched.

When the closed caption decoder is turned off, the Wide format is available.

All HD signals (1080i) will automatically be displayed in the Wide format and the FORMAT button will be disabled.

DTV 480p or DVD 480p signals will always fill the screen from top to bottom and the FORMAT button will be disabled. Make sure your HDTV receiver and DVD player (if using the 480p component outputs of the DVD player) are set to “TV shape 4:3”.

Remote Control of the Active AV Network

The AV Network is a special feature that makes it easier to use your television and Mitsubishi VCR together. When the AV Network is connected, you can point the remote control at the television, and it will pass the remote control command to your Mitsubishi VCR. You will gain even more benefits if you have a Mitsubishi VCR equipped for the Active AV Network and a Mitsubishi DVD player.

Before you begin, be sure you have:

• Made the correct AV Network connections. Refer to “Connection of TV to the Active AV Network” in the Connections section.

• Connected your VCR to INPUT-1 of your TV and/or connected your DVD to DVD INPUT.

• Set your VCR’s remote control settings to VCR or VCR A (if your VCR has an A and B setting).

• Turned your VCR video mute setting on.

• Turned the Active AV Network feature in both the VCR and the TV’s menu to ACTIVE.

Using the PLAY key on the TV remote, after selecting VCR with the slide switch:

• Active AV Network will turn your VCR on and begin playing a tape (if tape is inside).

• Active AV Network will turn your TV on and switch it to INPUT-1.

• When you turn your TV off, your VCR will turn off, unless it is playing or recording.

Displaying the VCR menu, after selecting VCR with the slide switch:

When you set the remote to VCR and then press MENU:

• Active AV Network will turn on your VCR if it is off and display the VCR’s menu

(this function may not work with some older Mitsubishi VCR's).

• Active AV Network will turn on your TV if it is off and switch it to INPUT-1.

Using the PLAY key on the remote, after selecting DVD with the slide switch:

• Your remote must be programmed to operate Mitsubishi DVD players.

• Active AV Network will turn on your TV and switch it to DVD INPUT-3.

• If your DVD player is in range of the remote and has a disc inside, the DVD will turn on and the disc will begin playing.

1. When using the Active A/V Network, always point your remote control at your television.

2. If you are using the Active A/V Network with the

Home Theater IR system control on page 66,

make sure both the TV and AV receiver are powered on before pressing the Play button on the VCR or DVD.

65

Mitsubishi Home Theater IR System Control using Infrared Emitter

66

The Mitsubishi Home Theater IR System Control is a special feature that makes it easier to use your television with a Mitsubishi digital AV receiver. Once your equipment is properly connected and set up, your TV and Mitsubishi digital AV receiver will change inputs together, to match high resolution pictures with the proper surround sound.

When you change inputs on your TV to watch different video products, your TV will send signals via the infrared emitter to your Mitsubishi digital AV receiver and will also change inputs to hear the sound from that product. You will automatically hear the high quality digital surround sound from digital products like your HDTV receiver and DVD and high quality analog stereo or surround sound from non-digital products like your VCR.

Special setups: A/V equipment:

VCR connections from pages 10 or 11, Audio Video Connections. Do not connect these cable to the TV, instead connect these to the digital AV receiver to the inputs labeled:

VCR 1 on digital AV receivers model M-VR800 or M-VR1000

VCR on digital AV receivers model M-VR700 or M-VR900

DVD with component video cables from page 14. Connect the video cables as shown, except, do not connect the audio cables to the TV. Instead, connect the digital output connection on the DVD player to the digital input on the back of the digital AV receiver, for example to

DIGITAL INPUT 1. If your DVD player does not have component video cables, then use a Svideo cable, do not use a regular yellow video cable.

HDTV receiver from pages 15-17. Connect the video cables as shown, except, do not connect the audio cables to the TV. Instead, connect the digital output connection on the HDTV receiver to the digital input on the back of the digital AV receiver, for example to DIGITAL

INPUT-2.

AV Receiver from page 13. Connect as shown (use a S-video cable in step 1 if your VCR is a

S-video VCR). Make sure to connect the TV outputs to the AV receivers input marked TV.

AUTO STANDBY:

ON

(see the owner’ guide of the AV receiver for this procedure).

DIGITAL INPUT ASSIGNMENT FOR DVD:

Assign the digital input you used for your DVD player to the AV receiver’s

DVD input selector. For example, if you connected your DVD player’s digital output to the DIGITAL INPUT 1, you need to then assign DIGITAL INPUT 1 to the AV receiver’s DVD input, so that it will automatically be used. This procedure is explained in the owner’s guide for the AV receiver.

DIGITAL ASSIGNMENT FOR HDTV:

For Mitsubishi AV receiver model M-VR800 or M-VR1000, assign the HDTV ditial input to VCR 2. VCR 2 will now be used to hear the HDTV sound.

If you have a Mitsubishi AV receiver model M-VR700 or M-VR900, assign the

HDTV digital input to CABLE/DBS, which will be used to hear HDTV sound.

Important Notes

Warning:

Don’t leave stationary or letterboxed images on-screen for extended periods of time.

Mix the types of pictures shown.

The normal use of a TV should include a mixture of television picture types. The most used pictures types should fill the screen with constantly moving images rather than stationary images or patterns. Displaying the same stationary patterns over extended periods of time, or displaying the same stationary pattern frequently can leave a subtle but permanent ghost image in your picture. Note that moving images with stationary black bars can also leave a subtle but permanent ghost image. To avoid this, mix your viewing pattern; do not show the same stationary image for more than 15% of your total TV viewing in any one week. Display constantly moving and changing images that fill the screen whenever possible.

This projection television uses picture tubes to project the image to the screen. All picture tubes age with use. As they age, their light output is gradually reduced. Normal television pictures fill the screen with constantly changing images. In these conditions, the picture tubes age at an even rate across the entire screen. This maintains a TV picture that is evenly bright over the whole screen.

Stationary images or images that only partially fill the screen (leaving black or colored bars to fill the screen), when used over extended periods of time or when viewed repeatedly, can cause uneven aging of the phosphors and leave subtle ghosts of the stationary images in the picture.

Uneven picture tube aging is not covered by the warranty.

Still or stationary images may be received from broadcasters, cable channels or satellite channels,

DVD discs, video tapes, laser discs, on-line services or web/internet searching devices, video games and digital television tuner/converter boxes. Examples of these types of image can be, but are not limited to the following:

• Letterbox top/bottom black bars

(These are the black bars shown at the top and bottom of the screen when you watch a widescreen movie on a standard TV)

• Side bar images

(These are the solid bars shown on each side of the image when you watch a normal TV program on a widescreen TV)

• Stock-market report bars

(These are the row of stock prices normally shown at the bottom of the screen during a financial report)

• Shopping channel logos and pricing displays

(Especially bright displays that are shown constantly or repeatedly in the same place on the screen)

• Video game patterns or scoreboards

• Bright station logos

(Subtle, low-contrast logos are less likely to cause uneven aging, especially if they are translucent and are not always projected in the same spot)

• On-line (internet) web sites

or other computer style images that are not changed or are left on display for long periods of time

Important Notes, continued

Warning:

If you place speakers next to the TV, make sure they are magnetically shielded. Ordinary speakers will cause distortion in the picture due to their strong magnets. This distortion, however, will not permanently harm the picture tubes.

If you place non-shielded speakers next to the TV, they may affect the convergence. If this happens, move the speakers further away from the television.

For maximum enjoyment and safe operation of your Mitsubishi TV, please read IMPORTANT SAFE-

GUARDS, pages 5 and 6 of your Owners Guide, very carefully and apply them properly.

Cleaning:

Normally, light dusting with a non-scratching duster will keep your TV clean.

If you want to wipe down your TV, turn it off and unplug it. Then, wipe it gently with a soft cloth slightly moistened with water. You can add a few drops of mild liquid detergent to the water for oily dirt.

DO NOT allow liquid to enter the TV through the ventilation slots.

DO NOT use strong or abrasive cleaners.

DO NOT use spray liquids or cleaners directly on the TV’s surface.

DO NOT scrub or rub the TV harshly. Wipe gently.

If Service is Required

If you are unable to correct a problem with your TV, consult your Mitsubishi dealer or Mitsubishi

Authorized Warranty Service Center.

DO NOT adjust any controls not described in this owner’s guide.

DO NOT remove the protective back cover of this unit.

If you see the following display on your screen, you should not change any settings. This is a special display used by the factory. Turn the TV off to remove this menu.

If any settings are changed, your warranty may be void.

NOTE: “Versions” are included for reference only and will vary from those shown below.

If this display appears, make sure that all of the on/off settings are the same as the illustration below and then turn the TV off. If any of the settings are different from the illustration below, turn the

Appendix 4 - INPUT-3 Video Connection Compatiblity

INPUT-3 Component Video connection compatibility

This input is compatible with component video signals from standard DVD players and other equipment that send standard NTSC component video, also known as 480i. This input may also be compatible with some newer DVD players, that are described as 480p or progressive scan. Since the industry standard concerning copy protection for 480p DVD signals was not finalized when this

TV design was completed, you may experience a small amount of picture disturbance near the top edge when playing discs using the 480p outputs of some DVD players.

Input levels and timing with component video

Y = 1.0V p-p (includes sync) 75 ohms

Cr = 700m Vp-p,75 ohms

(can also recieve signals from outputs labeled R-Y and Pr).

Cb= 700m Vp-p, 75 ohms

(can also receive signals from outputs labeled B-Y and Pb).

HIGH DEFINITION INTERFACE HDTV Video connection compatibility

This input is fully compatible with the Mitsubishi HD-1080 HDTV receiver. You will need BNC-to-

RCA adaptors for the RGB with H and V cable connections to the TV. Adaptors are available at most electronic and computer supply stores.

For other HDTV receivers, this input is compatible with most standard HDTV receivers that have component video outputs. Compatible DTV signals are SDTV 480i or 480p and HDTV 1080i. All other digital TV signals, such as 720p, need to be converted by the HDTV receiver to any of the above signals. Please check the HDTV receiver specifications before connecting.

This input is also compatible with HDTV receivers using RGB with “sync on green” or RGB with

“separate H and V sync”. Compatible DTV signals are SDTV 480i, 480p or HDTV 1080i. All other digital TV signals, such as 720p, need to be converted by the HDTV receiver to one of the compatible signals. Industry standards for DTV RGB signals systems, synchronization and signal strengths are not currently established. These inputs will not be compatible with all HDTV receivers that offer RGB. If your HDTV receiver offers both HDTV component video signals and HDTV RGB signals, Mitsubishi suggests you use the HDTV component video signals. Please check the HDTV receiver specifications before connecting.

Input levels and timing when used with HD component video signals

EIA - 770.3 standard levels and timing

Y = 1.0Vp-p (includes sync), 75 ohms

Pr = 700m Vp-p, 75 ohms

Pb = 700m Vp-p, 75 ohms

H = not used

V = not used

Input levels and timing when used with RGB

G (Y) = 1.0Vp-p 75 ohms (compatible with sync on green)

R (Pr) = 700mVp-p, 75 ohms

B (Pb) = 700m Vp-p, 75 ohms

H = 3Vp-p + 1.0v, 75 ohms (when using separate H and V sync)

V = 3 Vp-p + 1.0v, 75 ohms (when using separate H and V sync)
