Important user information

In order to obtain maximum enjoyment from this Pioneer KRP-

600A/KRP-500A flat screen TV, please first read this information

With the Pioneer KRP-600A/KRP-500A, you can be assured of a

high quality flat screen TV with long-life and high reliability. To

achieve images of exceptional quality, this Pioneer flat screen TV

incorporates state-of-the-art design and construction, as well as

very precise and highly advanced technology.

The Pioneer KRP-600A/KRP-500A flat screen TV incorporates the

latest in colour filter technology: Direct Colour Filter. This improves

the colour /picture reproduction of these models as compared to

previous models. It also eliminates the need for a physical glass

panel to be placed in front of the plasma display, which furthers

Pioneer’s continued goal of reducing environmental waste in

consumer electronics, now during the manufacturing process and

in the future during the recycling process.

Over the course of its lifetime, the luminosity of the Pioneer KRP-

600A/KRP-500A flat screen TV will diminish very slowly, such as

with all phosphor-based screens (for example, a traditional tube-

type television). To enjoy beautiful and bright images on your

Pioneer flat screen TV for a long time, please carefully read and

follow the usage guidelines below:

All phosphor-based screens (including conventional tube-type

televisions) can be affected by displaying static images for a

prolonged period. Flat screen TVs are no exception to this rule.

After-image and permanent effects on the screen can be avoided by

taking some basic precautions. By following the recommendations

listed below, you can ensure longer and satisfactory results from

your flat screen TV:

• Whenever possible, avoid frequently displaying the same image

or virtually still moving pictures (e.g. closed-captioned images

or video game images which have static portions).

• Do not display Teletext for a prolonged period of time.

• Avoid viewing the on-screen display for extended periods, from

a decoder, DVD player, VCR and all other components.

• Do not leave the same picture freeze-framed or paused

continuously over a long period of time, when using the still

picture mode from a TV, VCR, DVD player or any other

• Images which have both very bright areas and very dark areas

side by side should not be displayed for a prolonged period of

• When playing a video game, the “GAME” mode setting within

“AV Selection” is strongly recommended. However, please do

not use this mode for long periods of time.

• After playing a game or displaying any still image, it is best to

view a normal moving picture in the “WIDE” or “FULL” screen

setting for more than three times the length of the previous still/

Installation guidelines

The Pioneer KRP-600A/KRP-500A flat screen TV incorporates a very

thin design. To ensure safety, please take the proper measures to

mount or install the flat screen TV, in order to prevent the unit from

tipping over in the event of vibration or accidental movement.

This product should be installed by using only parts and

accessories designed by Pioneer. Use of accessories other than the

Pioneer stand or installation bracket may result in instability, and

could cause injury. For custom installation, please consult the

dealer where the unit was purchased. To ensure correct installation,

experienced and qualified experts must install the unit.

Pioneer will not be responsible for accident or damage caused by

the use of parts and accessories manufactured by other

companies, inadequate installation or stabilization, erroneous

operation, remodeling or natural disasters.

To avoid malfunction and overheating, make sure that the vents on

the main unit are not blocked when installing to ensure proper heat

• Distance the unit slightly from other equipment, walls, etc. For

the minimum space required around the unit, see page 15.

• Do not fit the unit inside narrow spaces where ventilation is

• Do not cover with a cloth, etc.

• Clean the vents on the sides and rear of the unit to remove dust

build-up, by using a vacuum cleaner set to its lowest suction

• Do not place the product on a carpet or blanket.

• Do not leave the product tilted over.

• Do not turn the product upside down.

Using the unit without proper ventilation may cause the internal

temperature to rise, and could result in possible malfunction. When

the surrounding or internal temperature exceeds a certain degree,

the display will automatically power off in order to cool the internal

electronics and prevent hazardous occurrences.

Any malfunction may occur due to: an inappropriate installation

site, improper assembly, installation, mounting, or operation of this

product, modifications made to the product. However, Pioneer

cannot be held responsible for such accidents or malfunction.

The following are typical effects and characteristics of a

phosphor-based matrix display and as such, are not covered by

the manufacturer’s limited warranties:

• Permanent residual images upon the phosphors of the panel.

• The existence of a minute number of inactive light cells.

• Panel generated sounds, examples: Fan motor noise, and

electrical circuit humming/glass panel buzzing

incorrect use of the product by you or other people,

malfunctions when in use, other product related problems, and

use of the product except in cases where the company must be

Display panel protection function

When still images (such as photos and computer images) stay on

the screen for an extended period of time, the screen will be slightly

dimmed. This is because the protection function of the display

panel automatically adjusts the brightness to protect the screen

when detecting still images; so this does not designate

malfunction. The screen is dimmed when a still image is detected

for about three minutes.

Information of pixel defect

Plasma TVs display information using pixels. Pioneer flat screen TV

panels contain a very large number of pixels (over 6.2 million pixels

for a 50 inch/60 inch display). All Pioneer display panels are

manufactured using a very high level of ultra-precision technology

and undergo individual quality control.

In rare cases, some pixels can be permanently switched off, or on,

resulting in either a black or coloured pixel permanently fixed on the

This effect is common to all plasma TVs because it is a

consequence of the technology.

If the defective pixels are visible at a normal viewing distance of

between 2.5 meters and 3.5 meters whilst viewing a normal

broadcast (i.e. not a test card, still image or single colour display)

please contact the supplying dealer.

If, however, they can only be seen close up or during single colour

displays then this is considered normal for this technology.

The display panel releases infrared rays because of its

characteristics. Depending on how the display panel is used, the

remote controls of nearby equipment may be adversely affected or

wireless headphones using infrared rays are interfered by noise. If

this is the case, place that equipment at a location where its remote

control sensor is not affected.

While this product meets the required specifications, it emits a

small amount of noise. If you place such equipment as an AM radio,

personal computer, and VCR close to this product, that equipment

may be interfered. If this happens, place that equipment far enough

Display panel driving sound

The screen of the display panel is composed of extremely fine pixels

and these pixels emit light according to received video signals. This

principle may make you hear buzz sound or electrical circuit

humming from the display panel.

Do not attach such items as labels and tape to the

This may result in the discolouration or scratch of the cabinet.

When not using the product for a long period of time

If you do not use the product for a long period of time, the functions

of the product may be adversely affected. Switch on and run the

product occasionally.

Condensation may take place on the surface or inside of the

product when the product is rapidly moved from a cold place to a

warm place or just after a heater is switched on in winter morning,

for example. When condensation takes place, do not switch on the

product and wait until condensation disappears. Using the product

with condensation may result in malfunction.

Cleaning the surface of the screen

When cleaning the screen surface, gently wipe it with the supplied

Rubbing hard on the screen can scratch the special film coating the

surface. If cleaning gently with the dry cloth is not enough to

remove grime, unplug the power cord from the outlet and follow the

1. Soak a piece of soft, untreated cloth in distilled water.

A “treated” cloth contains polish or other chemicals, such as in a

commercially available eyeglass cleaning towelette.

2. Wring out the cloth so that it is slightly damp, not wet.

Make sure to wring out the cloth completely. Cleaning the surface

with a wet cloth can allow water to seep into the unit, causing

Cleaning the glossy surface of the front cabinet

When cleaning the glossy surface of the front cabinet, gently wipe

it with a dry soft cloth; the supplied cleaning cloth or other similar

cloths (e.g., cotton and flannel). If you use a dusty or hard cloth or if

you rub the cabinet hard, the surface of the product will be

The cabinet of this product is mostly composed of plastic. Do not

use chemicals such as alcohol, benzene, thinner or insecticides to

clean the cabinet. Using these chemicals may result in quality

deterioration, discolouration or coating removal.

Do not expose the product to volatile gas or fluid such as pesticide.

Do not make the product contact with rubber or vinyl products for a

long period of time. The effect of plasticizer in the plastic may result

in quality deterioration or coating removal.

Handles at the rear of the display panel

When moving the display panel, ask another person for help and

use the handles attached to the rear of the display panel. Do not

move the display panel by holding only a single handle.

Do not use the handles to hang the product when installing or

carrying the product, for example. Do not use the handles for the

purpose of preventing the product from tilting over.

The rotation speed of the cooling fan motor increases when the

ambient temperature of the Media Receiver becomes high. You may

hear the sound of the fan motor at that time.

To use this product for a long period of time

The Energy Save function can maintain efficiency of the screen for

a long period of time. Setting the Energy Save function to “Mode1”

is recommended in order to maintain the efficiency of the screen for

a long period of time.

Panel sticking and after-image lag

Displaying the same images such as still images for a long time

may cause after-image lagging. This may occur in the following two

After-image lagging due to remaining electrical load

When image patterns with very high peak luminance are displayed

for more than one minute, after-image lagging may occur due to the

remaining electric load. The after-images remaining on the screen

will disappear when moving images are displayed. The time for the

after-images to disappear depends on the luminance of the still

images and the time they had been displayed.

After-image (lag image) due to burning

Avoid displaying the same image on the display panel continuously

over a long period of time.

If the same image is displayed continuously for a long period, or for

shorter periods of time over several days, a permanent after-image

may remain on the screen due to burning of the fluorescent

materials. Such images may become less noticeable if moving

images are later displayed, but they will not disappear completely.

• To prevent damage from screen burning this display panel will

automatically - after a display time of 5 to 10 minutes - turn off

those still images generated by the system itself: the Home

Media Gallery function and Graphical User Interface elements

such as HOME MENU and the Electronic Programme Guide.

• To prevent screen burning, the display position is automatically

changed imperceptibly when watching images (see Orbiter on

Preventing damage from screen burning

• We recommend that you enjoy watching images displayed in

full screen, except when doing so may result in copyright

infringement (see page 60).

• Set the Side Mask detection function to “Mode 1” or “Mode 2”,

the High Definition 16:9 aspect ratio images containing side

masks will be detected and the side masks will be added

automatically or the image displayed in full screen, leading to

more effective countermeasures taken for the screen burning

(see Detecting side masks on page 61).

Deep Colour means the colour depth that describes the number of

bits used to represent the colour of a single pixel in a bitmapped

image. Besides the conventional RGB/YCbCr16 bit/20 bit/24 bit

signals, the flat screen TV also supports RGB/YCbCr30 bit/36 bit

signals. This enables finer, minute colour reproduction when a

device that supports Deep Colour signals is connected to the Media

Receiver. When Deep Colour signals are received, the colour depth

appears on the InfoBanner (see page 48).

Version 2, June 1991

Copyright © 1989, 1991 Free Software Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public License

is intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software - to make sure the software is free for all its users. This General

Public License applies to most of the Free Software Foundation’s software and to any other program whose authors commit to using it.

(Some other Free Software Foundation software is covered by the GNU Lesser General Public License instead.) You can apply it to your

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that you

have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish), that you receive source code or can get it if

you want it, that you can change the software or use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you know you can do these things.

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid anyone to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender the rights. These

restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the software, or if you modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have.

You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. And you must show them these terms so they know their rights.

We protect your rights with two steps: (1) copyright the software, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permission to copy,

distribute and/or modify the software.

Also, for each author’s protection and ours, we want to make certain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this free

software. If the software is modified by someone else and passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is not the original,

so that any problems introduced by others will not reflect on the original authors’ reputations.

Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free program will

individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear that any patent must be

licensed for everyone’s free use or not licensed at all.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow.

GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License applies to any program or other work which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be distributed

under the terms of this General Public License. The “Program”, below, refers to any such program or work, and a “work based on the

Program” means either the Program or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Program or a portion

of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included without

limitation in the term “modification”.) Each licensee is addressed as “you”. Activities other than copying, distribution and modification

are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the output from the

Program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on the Program (independent of having been made by running the

Program). Whether that is true depends on what the Program does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Program’s source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you

conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the

notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the Program a copy of this License

along with the Program. You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty

protection in exchange for a fee.

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Program or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and copy and

distribute such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a ) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.

b ) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish, that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the Program or any part

thereof, to be licensed as a whole at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.

c ) If the modified program normally reads commands interactively when run, you must cause it, when started running for such

interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print or display an announcement including an appropriate copyright notice and a notice

that there is no warranty (or else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users may redistribute the program under these

conditions, and telling the user how to view a copy of this License. (Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not normally

print such an announcement, your work based on the Program is not required to print an announcement.) These requirements apply

to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Program, and can be reasonably

considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those sections when you

distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a work based on the

Program, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend to the

entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it. Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or

contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or

collective works based on the Program. In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Program with the Program

(or with a work based on the Program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the

scope of this License.

3. You may copy and distribute the Program (or a work based on it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the terms of

Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also do one of the following:

a ) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which must be distributed under the terms of

Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customar

ily used for software interchange; or,

b ) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than your cost of physically

performing source distribution, a complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding source code, to be distributed under the

terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange; or, it linking proprietary applications with

the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser General Public License instead of this License.

c ) Accompany it with the information you received as to the offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alternative is allowed

only for noncommercial distribution and only if you received the program in object code or executable form with such an offer, in

accord with Subsection b above.) The source code for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it.

For an executable work, complete source code means all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface

definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation of the executable. However, as a special exception, the

source code distributed need not include anything that is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major

components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself

accompanies the executable. If distribution of executable or object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place,

then offering equivalent access to copy the source code from the same place counts as distribution of the source code, even though

third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the object code.

4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt otherwise

to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this License. However,

parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long as such parties

remain in full compliance.

5. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or

distribute the Program or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by

modifying or distributing the Program (or any work based on the Program), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and

all its terms and conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Program or works based on it.

KRP-600A_500A.book Page 116 Monday, September 8, 2008 10:31 AMAdditional information 15

6. Each time you redistribute the Program (or any work based on the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license from the

original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further

restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights granted herein.

You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties to this License.

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),

conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do

not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this

License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Program at all. For example, if a patent

license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then

the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Program.

If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended

to apply and the section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such

claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system, which is implemented by

public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system

in reliance on consistent application of that system; it is up to the author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software

through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice. This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed

to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

8. If the distribution and/or use of the Program is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original

copyright holder who places the Program under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those

countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the

limitation as if written in the body of this License.

9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the General Public License from time to time. Such new

versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Program specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and

“any later version”, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by

the Free Software Foundation. If the Program does not specify a version number of this License, you may choose any version ever

published by the Free Software Foundation.

10. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Program into other free programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to the author

to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software Foundation; we

sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all derivatives of our

free software and of promoting the shar

ing and reuse of software generally.

INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PROGRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS How to Apply These Terms to Your New Programs

If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to make it free

software which everyone can redistribute and change under these terms.

To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively convey the

exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the “copyright” line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

<one line to give the program’s name and a brief idea of what it does.>

Copyright © <year> <name of author>

This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as published by

the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.

This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of

MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details.

KRP-600A_500A.book Page 117 Monday, September 8, 2008 10:31 AMAdditional information15

You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public License along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software Foundation,

Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA.

Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.

If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like this when it starts in an interactive mode:

Gnomovision version 69, Copyright © year name of author

Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for details type ‘show w’. This is free software, and you are welcome to

redistribute it under certain conditions; type ‘show c’ for details.

The hypothetical commands ‘show w’ and ‘show c’ should show the appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course, the

commands you use may be called something other than ‘show w’ and ‘show c’; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu items - whatever

You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a “copyright disclaimer” for the program, if

necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your program into proprietary programs. If your program is a subroutine library,

you may consider it more useful to permit linking proprietary applications with the library. If this is what you want to do, use the GNU Lesser

General Public License instead of this License.

[GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE]

Version 2.1, February 1999

Copyright © 1991, 1999 Free Software Foundation, Inc.

51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed.

[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also counts as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, version 2, hence the

version number 2.1.]

The licenses for most software are designed to take away your freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General Public Licenses

are intended to guarantee your freedom to share and change free software - to make sure the software is free for all its users. This license,

the Lesser General Public License, applies to some specially designated software packages - typically libraries - of the Free Software

Foundation and other authors who decide to use it. You can use it too, but we suggest you first think carefully about whether this license or

the ordinary General Public License is the better strategy to use in any particular case, based on the explanations below.

When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of use, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make sure that

you have the freedom to distribute copies of free software (and charge for this service if you wish); that you receive source code or can get

it if you want it; that you can change the software and use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you are informed that you can do these

To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender these rights.

These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities for you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.

For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we gave you.

You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get the source code. If you link other code with the library, you must provide complete

object files to the recipients, so that they can relink them with the library after making changes to the library and recompiling it. And you

must show them these terms so they know their rights. We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright the library, and (2)

we offer you this license, which gives you legal permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.

To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is modified by

someone else and passed on, the recipients should know that what they have is not the original version, so that the original author’s

reputation will not be affected by problems that might be introduced by others.

Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence of any free program. We wish to make sure that a company cannot effectively

restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that any patent license

obtained for a version of the library must be consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.

Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU Lesser General

Public License, applies to certain designated libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary General Public License. We use this license

for certain libraries in order to permit linking those libraries into non-free programs.

KRP-600A_500A.book Page 118 Monday, September 8, 2008 10:31 AMAdditional information 15

When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or using a shared library, the combination of the two is legally speaking a

combined work, a derivative of the original library. The ordinary General Public License therefore permits such linking only if the entire

combination fits its criteria of freedom. The Lesser General Public License permits more lax criteria for linking other code with the library.

We call this license the “Lesser” General Public License because it does Less to protect the user’s freedom than the ordinary General Public

License. It also provides other free software developers Less of an advantage over competing non-free programs. These disadvantages are

the reason we use the ordinary General Public License for many libraries. However, the Lesser license provides advantages in certain special

For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it becomes a

de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs must be allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that a free library does the

same job as widely used non-free libraries. In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free software only, so we use the

Lesser General Public License.

In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body of free

software. For example, permission to use the GNU C Library in non-free programs enables many more people to use the whole GNU

operating system, as well as its variant, the GNU Linux operating system.

Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of the users’ freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that is linked

with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to run that program using a modified version of the Library.

The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between a “work

based on the library” and a “work that uses the library”. The former contains code derived from the library, whereas the latter must be

combined with the library in order to run.

GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION AND MODIFICATION

0. This License Agreement applies to any software library or other program which contains a notice placed by the copyright holder or other

authorized party saying it may be distributed under the terms of this Lesser General Public License (also called “this License”). Each

licensee is addressed as “you”.

A “library” means a collection of software functions and/or data prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application programs

(which use some of those functions and data) to form executables.

The “Library”, below, refers to any such software library or work which has been distributed under these terms. A “work based on the

Library” means either the Library or any derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the Library or a portion of

it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated straightforwardly into another language. (Hereinafter, translation is included

without limitation in the term “modification”.)

“Source code” for a work means the preferred form of the work for making modifications to it. For a library, complete source code means

all the source code for all modules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the scripts used to control compilation

and installation of the library.

Activities other than copying, distribution and modification are not covered by this License; they are outside its scope. The act of running

a program using the Library is not restricted, and output from such a program is covered only if its contents constitute a work based on

the Library (independent of the use of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that is true depends on what the Library does and what

the program that uses the Library does.

1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the Library’s complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that you

conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep intact all the

notices that refer to this License and to the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of this License along with the Library.

You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in exchange for a

2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and copy and distribute

such modifications or work under the terms of Section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of these conditions:

a ) The modified work must itself be a software library.

b ) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent notices stating that you changed the files and the date of any change.

c ) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no charge to all third parties under the terms of this License.

d ) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a table of data to be supplied by an application program that uses the facility,

other than as an argument passed when the facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith effort to ensure that, in the event

an application does not supply such function or table, the facility still operates, and performs whatever part of its purpose remains

meaningful. (For example, a function in a library to compute square roots has a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of

the application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any application-supplied function or table used by this function must be

optional: if the application does not supply it, the square root function must still compute square roots.)

These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the Library, and

can be reasonably considered independent and separate works in themselves, then this License, and its terms, do not apply to those

sections when you distribute them as separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as part of a whole which is a wo

ased on the Library, the distribution of the whole must be on the terms of this License, whose permissions for other licensees extend

to the entire whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who wrote it.

Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or contest your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the intent is to

KRP-600A_500A.book Page 119 Monday, September 8, 2008 10:31 AMAdditional information15

exercise the right to control the distribution of derivative or collective works based on the Library.

In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on the Library with the Library (or with a work based on the Library) on a

volume of a storage or distribution medium does not bring the other work under the scope of this License.

3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General Public License instead of this License to a given copy of the Library. To do

this, you must alter all the notices that refer to this License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General Public License, version 2,

instead of to this License. (If a newer version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public License has appeared, then you can

specify that version instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in these notices.

Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies to all

subsequent copies and derivative works made from that copy. This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code of the Library

into a program that is not a library.

4. You may copy and distribute the Library (or a portion or derivative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form under the

terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code, which

must be distributed under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software interchange.

If distribution of object code is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access to copy the

source code from the same place satisfies the requirement to distribute the source code, even though third parties are not compelled

to copy the source along with the object code.

5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being compiled or linked

with it, is called a “work that uses the Library”. Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of the Library, and therefore falls outside

the scope of this License.

However, linking a “work that uses the Library” with the Library creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library (because it

contains portions of the Library), rather than a “work that uses the library”. The executable is therefore covered by this License. Section

6 states terms for distribution of such executables.

When a “work that uses the Library” uses material from a header file that is part of the Library, the object code for the work may be a

derivative work of the Library even though the source code is not. Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be linked

without the Library, or if the work is itself a library. The threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.

If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data structure layouts and accessors, and small macros and small inline functions

(ten lines or less in length), then the use of the object file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legally a derivative work. (Executables

containing this object code plus portions of the Library will still fall under Section 6.)

Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the Library, you may distribute the object code for the work under the terms of Section 6. Any

executables containing that work also fall under Section 6, whether or not they are linked directly with the Library itself.

6. As an exception to the Sections above, you may also combine or link a “work that uses the Library” with the Library to produce a work

containing portions of the Library, and distribute that work under terms of your choice, provided that the terms permit modific

the work for the custo

mer’s own use and reverse engineering for debugging such modifications.

You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work that the Library is used in it and that the Library and its use are covered by

this License. You must supply a copy of this License. If the work during execution displays copyright notices, you must include the

copyright notice for the Library among them, as well as a reference directing the user to the copy of this License. Also, you must do one

a ) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding machine-readable source code for the Library including whatever changes

were used in the work

(which must be distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work is an executable linked with the Library, with the complete

machine-readable “work that uses the Library”, as object code and/or source code, so that the user can modify the Library and then

relink to produce a modified executable containing the modified Library. (It is understood that the user who changes the contents of

definitions files in the Library will not necessarily be able to recompile the application to use the modified definitions.)

b ) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the Library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time a copy

of the library already present on the user’s computer system, rather than copying library functions into the executable, and (2) will

operate properly with a modified version of the library, if the user installs one, as long as the modified version is interface-compatible

with the version that the work was made with.

c ) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least three years, to give the same user the materials specified in Subsection

6a, above, for a charge no more than the cost of performing this distribution.

d ) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to copy from a designated place, offer equivalent access to copy the above

specified materials from the same place.

e ) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.

For an executable, the required form of the “work that uses the Library” must include any data and utility programs needed for

reproducing the executable from it. However, as a special exception, the materials to be distributed need not include anything that

is normally distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating

system on which the executable runs, unless that component itself accompanies the executable.

It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normally accompany

the operating system. Such a contradiction means you cannot use both them and the Library together in an executable that you

KRP-600A_500A.book Page 120 Monday, September 8, 2008 10:31 AMAdditional information 15

7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the Library side-by-side in a single library together with other library facilities not

covered by this License, and distribute such a combined library, provided that the separate distribution of the work based on the Library

and of the other library facilities is otherwise permitted, and provided that you do these two things:

a ) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same work based on the Library, uncombined with any other library facilities.

This must be distributed under the terms of the Sections above.

b ) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the fact that part of it is a work based on the Library, and explaining where to find

the accompanying uncombined form of the same work.

8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library except as expressly provided under this License. Any attempt

otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute the Library is void, and will automatically terminate your rights under this

License. However, parties who have received copies, or rights, from you under this License will not have their licenses terminated so long

as such parties remain in full compliance.

9. You are not required to accept this License, since you have not signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to modify or

distribute the Library or its derivative works. These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this License. Therefore, by modifying

or distributing the Library (or any work based on the Library), you indicate your acceptance of this License to do so, and all its terms and

conditions for copying, distributing or modifying the Library or works based on it.

10. Each time you redistribute the Library (or any work based on the Library), the recipient automatically receives a license from the original

licensor to copy, distribute, link with or modify the Library subject to these terms and conditions. You may not impose any further

restrictions on the recipients’ exercise of the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third parties

11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to patent issues),

conditions are imposed on you (whether by court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the conditions of this License, they do

not excuse you from the conditions of this License. If you cannot distribute so as to satisfy simultaneously your obligations under this

License and any other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may not distribute the Library at all. For example, if a patent

license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the Library by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through you, then

the only way you could satisfy both it and this License would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the Library. If any portion of this

section is held invalid or unenforceable under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section is intended to apply, and the

section as a whole is intended to apply in other circumstances.

It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe any patents or other property right claims or to contest validity of any such

claims; this section has the sole purpose of protecting the integrity of the free software distribution system which is implemented by

public license practices. Many people have made generous contributions to the wide range of software distributed through that system

in reliance on consistent application of that

system; it is up to the author donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute software

through any other system and a licensee cannot impose that choice.

This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is believed to be a consequence of the rest of this License.

12. If the distribution and/or use of the Library is restricted in certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces, the original

copyright holder who places the Library under this License may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation excluding those

countries, so that distribution is permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case, this License incorporates the

limitation as if written in the body of this License.

13. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or new versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to time. Such

new versions will be similar in spirit to the present version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or concerns.

Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the Library specifies a version number of this License which applies to it and

“any later version”, you have the option of following the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later version published by

the Free Software Foundation. If the Library does not specify a license version number, you may choose any version ever published by

the Free Software Foundation.

14. If you wish to incorporate parts of the Library into other free programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with these, write

to the author to ask for permission. For software which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free Software

Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the free status of all

derivatives of our free software and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.

INCLUDING ANY GENERAL, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUSTAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE), EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS How to Apply These Terms to Your New Libraries

If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the greatest possible use to the public, we recommend making it free software that

everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so by permitting redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively, under the terms of the

ordinary General Public License).

To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library. It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most effectively

convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at least the “copyright” line and a pointer to where the full notice is found.

<one line to give the library’s name and a brief idea of what it does.>

Copyright © <year> <name of author>

This library is free software; you can redistribute it and/or modify it under the terms of the GNU Lesser General Public License as published

by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2.1 of the License, or (at your option) any later version.

This library is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty of

MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. See the GNU Lesser General Public License for more details.

You should have received a copy of the GNU Lesser General Public License along with this library; if not, write to the Free Software

Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA 02110-1301 USA Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and paper mail.

You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer) or your school, if any, to sign a “copyright disclaimer” for the library, if

necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:

Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the library ‘Frob’ (a library for tweaking knobs) written by James Random Hacker.

Television in the UK is going digital, bringing us all more choice and new services.

Starting in late 2007 and ending in 2012, television services in the UK will go

completely digital, TV region by TV region.

Please see page 125 to find out when your area switches to digital.

Digital UK is the independent, non-profit organisation leading the process of

digital TV switchover in the UK. Digital UK provides impartial information on what

people need to do to prepare for the move to digital, and when they need to do it.

How the switchover affects your

Your new TV has a digital tuner built in, which means it is ready to receive the

Freeview signal by simply plugging it into your aerial socket (check if you can get

digital TV through your aerial now, or whether you’ll have to wait until switchover,

When the TV switchover happens in your area, there are at least two occasions

when you will need to re-tune your TV in order to continue receiving your existing

TV channels, and also to pick up new ones. Digital UK, the body leading the digital

TV switchover, will advise you when you need to re-tune during the switchover.

If you choose to connect your TV to satellite or cable with a digital box then it will

not be affected by switchover, and you won’t need to re-tune.

To find out how to re-tune your TV, see “Reconfiguring the DTV/SAT channel

settings” in the “Enjoying DTV/SAT broadcasts” (page 48).

If you are missing any channels, it may be that they are not available in your area,

or that your aerial needs upgrading.
