DVI/HDCP and VGA Port This display includes a DVI input that receives analog or digital video signals through the interface for the display of high quality digital video signals.

The DVI port is HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital

Content Protection) compliant and is fully compatible with video equipment that features the HDCP function. The VGA input can be used for analog RGB signals from a HD Receiver or personal computer. Resolutions supported are

VGA, SVGA, XGA and WXGA. DVI and VGA share Audio L/R inputs.

Service Port is reserved for manufacturer use.

Incorrect use may damage the Display.

Antenna (ANT) Antenna receives signals from

VHF/ UHF antennas or a cable system.

Audio Out The Audio Output sends the TV's connected audio signals to an A/V receiver or other equipment. Display features a R/L stereo output.

Component 1, 2 These inputs can be used for the connection of A/V equipment with component video outputs, such as a DVD player, Digital

Satellite Receiver, or compatible Video Game

System.

Video 1,2 These inputs can be used for the connection of a VCR, Super VHS (S-VHS) VCR,

DVD player, or other video devices to the TV.

There is a Video and an S-Video input for Video1 and video 2. When both inputs are used simultaneously on Video 1, only the S-Video input will be recognized. Same behavior for

Video 2. The display will automatically detect the input being used.

NOTE: The S-Video input has a better quality of picture than a composite Video signal.

Pixels Policy

Syntax's D.O.A. Policy for LCD TVs for

Defective Pixels on LCD Panels

(Applicable to the LCD TV sold within USA & Canada only)

(approximately 20 inches) between the LCD panel and the eyes of the user at a

90 degrees viewing angle. All LCD panels have been tested to ensure they comply with our factory standards. Our evaluation is based on the number of defective pixels and the distance between any two defective pixels. Bright dots are dots that appear bright and unchanged in size when a LCD TV screen displays under a black pattern; dark dots are dots that appear dark and unchanged in size when a LCD TV screen is displayed under pure red, green, or blue patterns ("defective pixels"). Adjacent dots are dots located directly next to each other.

Customers are required to check their LCD panel immediately after purchase.

To identify defective pixels, the LCD panel should be examined under normal operating conditions as mentioned above, preferably in its native display resolution, and with a 90 degrees viewing angle.

A LCD TV will be considered dead on arrival (D.O.A.) with regards to defective pixels on the LCD panel when any one of the following criteria is met:

A total of 7 defective pixels including both bright dots and dark dots are

present (the typical 30" LCD Television screen has 16.7 million pixels), or

2 or more pairs of adjacent bright dots are present, or

3 adjacent bright dots are present, or

3 adjacent dark dots are present.

In view of customers' concerns about dead pixels, Syntax would like to address that defective pixels are not ultimately avoidable with the current LCD industry standard panel manufacturing processes. We always strive to improve our technology and minimize the chance of occurrence of defective pixels by applying strict screening processes in our factory production processes.

However, Syntax cannot guarantee that a return unit to our customers will be

100% free of defective pixels.

For questions, please call our toll free service number in the USA at 888-SYNTAX-8.

"At SyntaxG roups, a satisfied customer is our

most important focus."
