Chapter 20 Connecting Equipment Connecting Equipm 2.1 Which Video Connection Should I Use Which Video Connect
The VIZIO VU32L HDTV10A has six different ways to connect your video equipment from a basic connection to the most advanced for digital displays.
| Connection Quality (type) | Connector | Rear Panel Color Codes | Description |
| Best (digital) | ![]() | White | HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) - It is the first and only industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital audio/video interface. HDMI provides an interface between any audio/video source, such as a set-top box, DVD player, or A/V receiver and an audio and/or video monitor, such as a digital television (DTV), over a single cable. |
| Best (digital) | ![]() | Black | DTV Coaxial RF. When used for MPEG2 encoded bit streams from ATSC broadcast programming, this input takes advantage of the High Definition content. TV Coaxial RF. This is the connection for standard NTSC TV using antenna or cable. |
| Good (analog) | |||
| Best (analog) | ![]() | Blue | RGB PC (VGA) – This video input has separate red, green and blue color components. The signal carries horizontal and vertical sync information on the green signal. This is most commonly used for PC input. |
| Better (analog) | ![]() | Green and Purple | Component1/2 - The video signal is separated into three signals, one containing the black-and-white information and the other two containing the color information. This enhancement over S-Video takes advantage of the superior picture provided by progressive scan DVD players and HDTV formats. |
| Good (analog) | ![]() | Yellow, Orange and Red | S-Video (AV1) - The video signal is separated into two signals, one containing the black-and-white information and the other containing the color information. Separating the color in this way avoids ‘cross color’ effects where closely spaced black and white lines are erroneously displayed in color. It also enables text to be displayed more sharply.Composite (AV1/2) - The complete video signal is carried through this single pin connector. This is the most commonly used video connection. |

4.16.1 Viewing Modes Viewing Modes
Normal Mode
The original 4:3 aspect ratio (1.33:1 source) is preserved, so black bars are added to the left and right of the display image. Standard TV broadcasts are displayed with a 4:3 Aspect Ratio. Movies in 4:3 Aspect Ratio may be referred to as pan-and-scan or full frame. These movies were originally filmed in 16:9 (widescreen), and then modified to fit a traditional TV screen (4:3).

When watching a standard broadcast or full-frame movie in this mode, the display image is stretched proportionately to fill the TV screen. When watching a widescreen (1.78:1 source) program or movie, the display image fills the TV screen. If you are watching a widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1 source) program or movie, there will still be black bars at the top and bottom.

5.1 Maintenance Maintenance
Important Important
- Make sure that the power cable is removed from the socket before cleaning the TV.
- Do not use volatile solvent (such as toluene, rosin and alcohol) to clean the TV. Such chemicals may damage the housing, screen glass and remote control, and cause paint to peel.
Cleaning the Housing and Remote Control
- Use the VIZIO soft cloth (included) for cleaning.
- If the housing or remote control is seriously contaminated, use a soft cloth moistened with diluted neutral cleaner to clean the display. Wring water out of the cloth before cleaning to prevent water from penetrating into the housing. Wipe the display with a dry cloth after cleaning.
Deasing the Screen
- Use the VIZIO soft cotton cloth (included) to gently clean the screen.
- The screen glass is very fragile. Do not scrape it with any sharp object. Do not press or tap the screen to avoid cracking. When the screen is seriously contaminated, use a soft cloth moistened with diluted neutral cleaner to clean the display. Wring water out of the cloth before cleaning to prevent water from penetrating into the housing. Wipe the display with a dry cloth after cleaning.
5.2 TroublessoodstringGGuide
If the TV fails or the performance changes dramatically, check the display in accordance with the following instructions. Remember to check the peripherals to pinpoint the source of the failure. If the display still fails to perform as expected, contact the VIZIO for assistance by calling 1-877-MYVIZIO (698-4946) or e-mail us at techsupport@vizio.com.
| Problem | Solution |
| No power. | Make sure the power button is ON (White VIZIO Logo).Make sure AC power cord is securely connected to the AC socket.Plug another electrical device (like a radio) to the power outlet to verify that the outlet is supplying the proper voltage. |
| No sound.Problem Solution | Check your audio connectionPress MUTE on the remote control again, so that MUTE disappears from the screenCheck your audio settings, your TV audio may be set to SAP, min or speakers offPress the Volume + (Up) key on your remote controlMake sure that headphones are not connected |
| If the screen is black. Check your input connections. | |
| Power is ON but no screen image. | Make sure the video cable supplied with the TV is secured to the correct video output port on the back of the VCR and the TV. Make any cable you have attached to the TV is secured to the correct output your Set-Top Box, DVD, etc.Adjust brightness and contrast.Check Source settings. |
| Wrong or abnormal colors appear. | If any colors (red, green, or blue) are missing, check the video cable to make sure it is securely connected. |
| Control buttons do not work. Press only one button at a time. | |
| Remote Control does not work. | Make sure batteries are inserted correctlyBatteries could be weak.Make sure you have selected TV on the remote. |
| There appears to be image quality issues. | For best image quality, view HD wide screen programs where possible. If HD content is not available view “Standard Definition” from a digital source. Standard, analog TV will always be noticeably inferior to HD because your digital flat panel TV has video that is many times better than old TV’s and so you can see interference and deficiencies you did not know you had. |
| You cannot see a picture. | Make sure that the power cord is plugged into a grounded electrical outlet.Make sure that the power button is turned on.Make sure that the selected input source is connected to a working input source.If your TV is connected to your computer in RGB or HDMI mode, press any key on your keyboard to “wake” your computer. |
| You see a distorted picture or hear unusual sound. | You may be getting interference from electrical appliances, cars, motorcycles, or fluorescent lights. If you have not mounted it on the wall, try moving your TV to another location to see if this is the cause of the problem. |
| The picture has abnormal patterns. | Make sure that the input source cable is attached securely and correctly to the back of your TV.Make sure that the video input source is within the range of your TV. Compare the video input source’s specifications with your TV specifications. |
| The display image does not cover the entire screen. | If you are using RGB mode, make sure that H Size and V Position in the On Screen Display (OSD) are set correctly.If you are using TV, AV-C (Composite), AV-S (S-Video) or Component with 480i input, follow instructions in page 49 to obtain the desired screen mode. |
| You can see a picture but you cannot hear sound. | Make sure that the volume is not turned down.Make sure that the sound is not muted.Make sure that your audio input source cables are connected securely and correctly. |
| The TV has pixels that are always dark or colored. | Your LCD HDTV is manufactured using an extremely high level of precision technology, however, sometimes some pixels of your LCD HDTV may not display. Pixel defects within industry specifications are inherent to this type of product and do not constitute a defective product. |
| You see “noise” or “trash” on the screen. | When your LCD HDTV’s digital capabilities exceed a digital broadcast signal, the signal is up-converted (increased) to match your TV’s display capabilities. Up-converting can cause noise or trash. |
| You switch to a different input and the volume changes. | The TV remembers the volume level from the last time you adjusted it. If the sound level is higher or lower from another source, then the loudness will change. |
| You switch to a different input and the screen size changes. | The TV remembers the viewing mode from the last time you used a particular input (AV-C (Composite), AV-S (S-Video), Component, HDMI and TV). |
| Tips for High-Definition Users. | The LCD HDTV is an ideal platform for viewing High Definition Content.Best Image Quality will be achieved by the HDMI Input, then YPbPr, then RGB.However, due to variances in broadcast practices, it is possible some image distortions can occur. |
| Tips for Letterbox Content Users. | Letterboxed (or “Widescreen”) versions of DVD movies are most commonly formatted for standard 4:3 Televisions. The LCD HDTV has the capability of expanding this content so the entire screen is filled at the expense of image accuracy. |

6.2 GlossaryGloStandard Definitions Standard Definitions
Analog TV: Today's TV system using radio frequency waves to transmit and display pictures and sound.
Aspect Ratio (4x3): Traditional TV “aspect ratio”, that is, the screen’s width as compared to its height. For example, a “32 inch TV screen” would be 25 inches wide and 19 inches tall.
Aspect Ratio (16x9): "Wide screen TV" aspect ratio which is more like a movie screen than a traditional TV. For example, a "32 inch TV screen" would be 28 inches wide and 16 inches tall.
Digital TV (DTV): Television delivered and displayed using radio frequency waves that contain information that is digitally encoded for improved quality and efficiency.
Enhanced Definition TV (EDTV): A better digital television transmission than SDTV with at least 480P, in a 16x9 or 4x3 display and Dolby digital surround sound. 480P is the quality used by most DVD players. EDTV provides 300-400,000 pixels.
HDTV Monitor (sometimes called HDTV Ready): A set that can display HDTV programming if you have a separate HDTV tuner, HD Cable Set-Top Box or HD Satellite Set-Top-Box Receiver.
HDTV Tuner (also decoder, receiver, set-top box): A device capable of receiving and outputting HDTV signals for display. It may be stand-alone or integrated in the set.
High-Definition Television (HDTV): The best quality picture, wide screen (16x9) display with at least 720 progressively scanned lines (720P) or 1080 interlaced lines (1080i) and Dolby digital surround sound. HDTV provides 900,000-2.1 million pixels.
Integrated HDTV: An HDTV that has the digital tuner built into the set. It does not need a separate set-top box to receive over-the-air DTV signals.
Interlace Scan: A way to scan vertical lines onto a TV picture by scanning all the odd lines first, then filling the in the even lines (this happens instantaneously).
Plug-and-Play or Digital Cable Ready: A DTV or other device for digital cable consumers that plugs directly into the cable jack and does not require a separate set-top box. Plug-and-Play TV owners must obtain a CableCARD from their cable company in order to view scrambled programming services.
Progressive Scan: A way to scan vertical lines onto a TV picture by scanning all the lines consecutively (progressively).
Standard Definition TV (SDTV): Basic digital television transmission that may be displayed with fewer than 480 progressively scanned lines (480P) in 16 x 9 or 4 x 3 format. 480 interlaced (480i) is the quality of today's analog TV system.
Source: Buying a Digital Television, CEA, HDTV Guide, 2005
Note: The Federal Communications Commission (FCC), the Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) and the Consumer Electronics Retailers Coalition (CERC) have made a new tip sheet available for digital television (DTV) retailers to reproduce and distribute to consumers on the sales floor. The file may be downloaded online at www.dtv.gov. While you're there, check out the other useful information in the FCC is making available to consumers interested in learning more about the analog to digital transition.
