There is a wide range of audio and video equipment that can be connected to your monitor.

Via the SCART

Your TV set has two Euroconnector sockets. If you want to connect peripherals (e.g. video, decoder, etc.) which have Euroconnectors, to your TV, use SCART 1 or SCART 2 inputs.

If the external device is connected to SCART 1, choose SCART 1 RGB. If the external device is connected to SCART 2, choose SCART 2 RGB.

If you wish the set to remember the Scart RGB setting for your devices (Set Top Box, Satellite receiver or DVD), select this option from the Source Select Menu rather than the SOURCE button. Once this option has been selected in the menu it will be automatically selected every time you turn the device on.

Decoder

Cable TV offers you a wide choice of programs. Most of them are free, others are to be paid for by the viewer. This means that you will need to subscribe to the broadcasting organisation whose programmes you wish to receive. This organisation will supply you a corresponding decoder unit to allow the programmes to be unscrambled.

For further information ask your dealer. See also the booklet supplied with your decoder.

  • Connect the decoder to the Plasma Monitor with a Scart to Scart cable.

Playback NTSC

  • Connect NTSC VCR player to Scart socket or RCA Jacks at the rear of the Plasma Monitor.

Then, press "SOURCE" button to select proper source.

Camera And Camcorder

  • Connect your equipment to the monitor via VIDEO (yellow), AUDIO R (red) and AUDIO L (white) inputs. You should connect the jacks to the input in the same colour.

To Connect To S-VHS Input

Connect your camera or camcorder to S-VHS input at the rear of the Plasma monitor.

  • Connect your equipment to the Plasma monitor via S-VHS input and audio inputs of AV inputs by using S-VHS cables.

Connect The Decoder To The Video Recorder

Tips

Care Of The Screen

Clean the screen with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive solvents as they may damage the monitor screen coating layer.

Poor Picture

Is your monitor located too close to nonearthed audio equipment or neon lights, etc.?

The picture quality may degrade when two peripherals are connected to the monitor at the same time. In such a case, disconnect one of the peripherals.

No Picture

Have you pressed the correct buttons on the remote control? Try once more.

Check the cables and the equipments you have connected to the monitor.

Sound

You can not hear any sound. Did you perhaps interrupt the sound, pressing "×" button? Are external speakers connected to the monitor?

Sound is coming from only one of the speakers. Is the balance set to one direction extreme? See audio menu.

Remote Control

Your monitor no longer responds to the remote control. Perhaps the batteries are exhausted. If so you can still use the local buttons at the right bottom side of the Plasma Monitor.

Have you selected the wrong menu? Press "M" button to return to the previous menu.

No solution:

Switch your monitor off and on. If this does not work, call the service personnel; never attempt to repair it yourself
