IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION: PLEASE ADHERE TO ALL WARNINGS ON THE PRODUCT AND IN THE OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.

BEFORE OPERATING THE PRODUCT, PLEASE READ ALL OF THE SAFETY AND OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS.

RETAIN THIS LITERATURE FOR REFERENCE. Follow all instructions...

15. If an outside antenna is connected to the television equipment, be sure the antenna system is grounded so as to provide some protection against voltage surges and built up static charges. In the U.S. Selection 810-21 of the

National Electrical Code provides information with respect to proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the leadin wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of grounding conductors, location of antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrodes.

16. An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overhead power lines or other electrical light or power circuits, or where it can fall into such power lines or circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to keep from touching such power lines or circuits as contact with them might be fatal.

17. Wall or Ceiling Mounting—The product should be mounted to a wall or ceiling only as recommended by the manufacturer.

18. "Apparatus shall not be exposed to dripping or splashing and no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, shall be placed on the apparatus."

19. When the MAINS plug is used as the disconnect device, the disconnect device shall remain readily operable.

EXAMPLE OF ANTENNA GROUNDING ACCORDING TO

NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE,

ANSI/NFPA 70

“Note to CATV system installer:

This reminder is provided to call the CATV system installer’s attention to

Article 820-40 of the NEC that provides guidelines for proper grounding and, in particular, specifies that the cable ground shall be connected to the grounding system of the building, as close to the point of cable entry as practical.”

PROTECTING THE LCD DTV

GLOSSARY OF TERMS

Analog—

Commonly refers to the current NTSC transmission standard for televisions.

Aspect Ratio—

The ratio of the width to the height of a TV screen independent of the screen size (x units wide by x units high). Analog is 4:3; Digital can be 4:3 or 16:9 (also called wide screen).

ATSC—

Advanced Television Systems Committee

AV Jacks—

Audio Video Jacks

Bandwidth—

The range of frequencies assigned to a broadcast channel. A TV channel is 6 MHz wide.

Component Jacks (Y Pb Pr)—

Green, Blue, and Red video jacks that accept 480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080i signals. By separating the

Green (Y), Blue (Pb), and Red (Pr) video signal components, clearer, more-defined images that exceed the performance of S-Video and

Composite video jacks are achieved.

Composite Jacks—

White, Red, and Yellow AV jacks. The White and Red jacks carry the Left and Right audio signals while the

Yellow jack carries the composite video signal.

Dolby® Digital (Formally known as Dolby AC-3)—

A 5.1 channel

(Front L/R, Rear L/R, Center, and Bass) surround sound audio standard for digital television.

Downconverting—

The removal of pixels. Frame rate and/or scanning format may also change. Broadcasters may use this process to make room in their bandwidth for additional services, such as, sub-channels.

DTV (Digital Television)—

Comprises four elements, HDTV,

EDTV, SDTV, and Multicasting.

DVI—

Digital Visual Interface. A pure digital video interface that can pass standard-definition and high-definition video signals. It supports the HDCP copy protection standard, allowing transmission of copy-protected digital content.

EDTV—

Enhanced-Definition TV (480p)

HDMI—

High-Definition Multimedia Interface. An all digital audio/video interface that accepts uncompressed video signals for the very best picture possible. It supports the HDCP copy protection standard, allowing transmission of copy-protected digital content.

The signal can also include Dolby

®

Digital or PCM audio, when available.

HDTV—

High-Definition TV (720p, 1080i, & 1080p)

Input / Output Jacks—

Used to receive (input) and send (output) signals from one device to another. Such as, from a DVD player

(Output) to the TV (Input).

Interlaced Scanning—

The process of scanning two fields of video then combining (interlacing) them to make one frame of video (or one complete image).

Letter Box—

This term is used to describe a 16:9 ratio image being displayed on a 4:3 ratio display device. Black bands appear at the top and bottom of the screen.

MPEG2—

A compression scheme for moving images and audio. It was developed by the Motion Picture Experts Group. This makes

HDTV and multicasting possible.

Multicasting—

The dividing of a station’s broadcast signal into subchannels of programming or data services. The resolution of the main channel must be reduced to make room for sub-channels.

NTSC—

National Television Systems Committee

Pillar Boxing—

This term is used to describe a 4:3 ratio image being displayed on a 16:9 ratio display device. Black bars (or pillars) appear at the sides of the screen.

Pixel—

Picture Element

Progressive Scanning—

The process of scanning lines sequentially.

One scan produces one frame of video (or one complete image).

Set-Top Box (STB)—

A device that receives and converts signals for display on a television screen (can be digital or analog). Many digital

SDTV—

Standard-Definition TV (480i)

Signal—

The picture, sound, and data transmitted or received through the air to an antenna, over a Cable TV system, from a Satellite to a dish and receiver, or between external components of an

Audio/Video system.

Simulcast—

Simultaneously broadcasting the same program on two or more channels. This is required by the FCC during the transition from analog to digital. Simulcasting is scheduled to end and only digital broadcasts will continue after February 17, 2009.

S-Video Jack—

A round 4-pin jack that accepts separated luminance and chroma signals from a DVD player, Super VHS VCR, or similar analog device. The resolution of this input exceeds that of a composite video input (yellow connector), but is lesser than the resolution of component inputs (Y Pb Pr).

Terrestrial—

An over-the-air broadcast to an antenna.

Upconverting—

A process of converting original analog programming to digital for DTV broadcasting. Pixels may be duplicated and inserted between existing pixels to simulate HDTV. This does not increase the resolution. The resolution of an image is set during the recording process. It cannot be increased through conversion processes.

Wide Screen—

Used to describe a 16:9 or greater aspect ratio. 16:9 is the standard aspect ratio for HDTV digital displays. Movies screens are often slightly wider.

Turn on the satellite receiver then press the

RESET

key on the remote twice to begin a channel search. If after the search no satellite channels appear. Tune the TV to channel 3. Press the

MENU

key on the remote and select “Analog Antenna

Signal.” Use the

CURSOR

5. How do I get a full picture on the screen?

If you are connected to a Cable box or Satellite receiver, bring up the box menus and select 4:3 as the screen aspect ratio.

Then press the

PIX SHAPE

key on the television remote control for the desired screen shape.

6. Is my remote universal?

No, this remote control is designed to operate a Sanyo television only.

7. When I do a channel search some of my digital channels disappear. What is wrong?

Many digital stations are not on-the-air 24 hours a day. After doing the initial channel search, always use the menu system to perform a “Digital Add-on Search” to add new digital channels, so that stations not on-the-air during the search will not be erased.

8. There is no picture, sound is ok?

Check appropriate video connection to make sure it corresponds to the audio connection being used. If the sound is associated with component jacks on a DVD player, it may be necessary to access the DVD menu to select the component outputs or S-Video output.
