If signal needs to be split for two TVs, use an antenna signal splitter for connection.

Cable Connections

VGA Input - PC Connection

The VGA port of the TV is capable of accepting high-definition signals from computers with a VGA output jack. When used as a computer moniter, connect the VGA jack and the PC Audio In jack with a 15-Pin D-Sub cable and a 3.5mm stereo audio cable. The mentioned cables are not included with this product.

Headphone/Earphone Connection

Be sure that your unit is set at a low volume level before connecting the headphone. Increase the volume gradually for your comfortable listening.

CAUTION:

Hearing experts advise against the constant use of personal stereos played at high volume. Constant high volume use can lead to hearing loss. If you experience ringing in the ears or hearing loss, discontinue use and seek medical advise.

Cable Connections

COAXIAL (S/PDIF) - General Information

This port is usually found on digital audio equipment such as a DAT (Digital Audio Tape) machine or audio processing device. It allows the transfer of audio from one file to another without the conversion to and from an analog format, which could degrade the signal quality. The most common connector used with an S/PDIF interface is the RCA connector, the same one used for consumer audio products. An optical connector is also sometimes used.

COAXIAL(S/PDIF) Connection

Send the TV's audio signal to an external audio equipment via COAXIAL Output port. A 75 ohm coaxial cable is required for this connection. If you want to enjoy digital broadcasting through 5.1-channel speakers, connect the COAXIAL terminal on the back of TV to a Home Theater (or amp).

Notice : Coaxial digital audio output only operates under the HDMI and Digital TV mode.

NOTE: If you can not hear anything after COAXIAL(SPDIF) connection, set the SPDIF as PCM via "Digital Audio/SPDIF" option under the "Audio Menu". See page 12 for details.

CAUTION:

Do not look into the output port. Looking at the laser beam may damage your vision.

External Audio and Video Signal Input - HDMI, RCA, COMPONENT.

The player's AV function would enable users to view programs from external signal sources.

- Three input modes are available for you to chose from, we have them ranked as below in regard to image definition: HDMI, COMPONENT, RCA.

After cable connection, set the unit into the relevant input mode with the Source button to enable the signal pass.

NOTE: We supply one set of AV cable with this product. The white/red plug of the RCA cable is for the audio L/R connection and the yellow plug for the video connection. The white/red plug of the RCA cable can also be used separately to input the audio signal in the S-video/Component connection. The rest of cables required for other necessary connections are not included with this product, please check with your electronic store.

IMPORTANT NOTICE - When work with an external device,

- Be sure to have all necessary connections properly done before connect the power supply. Set the unit into the relative input/output mode to enable the signal pass. - Refer to the manual of external devices as well.

HDMI 1/2 Input

Cable Connections

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new type of connection that transmits digital audio and video signals simultaneously over a single cable. A HDMI cable is required for the HDMI connection. These HDMI input connectors are capable of receiving video at resolutions up to 1080p (1080-progressive). HDMI 1/2 is used in the same application.

NOTE:

The TV can receive video and audio signals simultaneously over a DHMI cable.

If the external AV device does not support Auto HDMI, you must set the output resolution appropriately. Check that your HDMI cable is version 1.3 or higher. If the HDMI cables don't support HDMI version 1.3, flickering image or blank screen can be a result. Please use the latest cables that support at least HDMI version 1.3.

AV Input

The CVBS port is capable of accepting signals from standard video sources(e.g., cable/satellite boxes, DVD players, VCRs, etc.)

Connect the VIDEO port with the yellow plug of the supplied AV cable.1. Connect the L, R port with the white/red plug of the supplied AV cable.2.
