Installation

To order accessories, call toll free 1-800-332-5368.

Receiver Location

Locate for comfortable viewing. Avoid placing where sunlight or

other bright light (including reflections) will fall on the screen. Use

of some types of fluorescent lighting can reduce Remote Control

transmitter range.

Adequate ventilation is essential to prevent internal component

failure. Keep away from areas of excessive heat or moisture.

Optional External Equipment

The Video / Audio connection between components can be made

with shielded video and audio cables. For best performance,

antenna cables should utilize 75 Ω coaxial shielded wire. Cables

are available from your dealer or electronic supply store. Before you

purchase any cables, be sure you know what type of output and

input connectors your various components require. Also determine

the length of cable you’ll need.

For optimum quality picture

When the LCD is exposed to light from outdoors or lighting fixtures,

high-contrast pictures may not be displayed clearly. Turn off

florescent lamps near the LCD and place in a location not exposed

to outdoor light.

Adjust viewing position

The LCD screen can be tilted up to 10° rearward.

The red, blue, and green dots on the screen are a characteristic of

the LCD panel and not a malfunction.

• Please note that extremely high precision technology is employed to

produce the LCD Monitor screen resulting in a 99.99 % pixel effective rate.

This leaves only 0.01 % pixels inactive or always lit.

ASPECT Controls

NORMALFULLZOOMJUST

This feature allows you to enjoy viewing the picture at its maximum

size, including wide screen cinema format picture.

1 Press ASPECT to select the screen mode.

Notes:

• However, if the mode selected does not match the aspect ratio of the input

signal, the original picture quality may be affected.

• If a normal (4:3) picture is projected in wide screen, distortion may occur

around the edges so that part of the picture may no longer be visible. We

recommend viewing in 4:3 mode so you can enjoy the picture as it was

intended to be seen.

• When a 1080i or 720p signal is being received, the mode is set to FULL,

and aspect is not possible.

• This feature does not work during SD mode.

• The aspect setting is stored separately for TV, VIDEO1, VIDEO2,

COMPONENT, HDMI and DVD/SD.

Bitstream

This is the digital form of multi-channel audio data (e.g., 5.1 channel) before

it is decoded into its various channels.

CPRM (Content Protection for Recordable Media)

CPRM is technology used to protect broadcasts that are allowed to be

recorded only once. Such broadcasts can be recorded only with CPRM

compatible recorders and discs.

Decoder

A decoder restores the coded audio signals on DVDs to normal. This is

called decoding.

Dolby Digital

This is a method of coding digital signals developed by Dolby Laboratories.

Apart from stereo (2-channel) audio, these signals can also be multichannel

audio. A large amount of audio information can be recorded on one disc

using this method.

Dolby Pro Logic

A surround system where a 4-channel audio track is recorded as 2 channels

and then is restored to 4 channels for play. The surround channel is

monaural and can reproduce up to 7 kHz.

Down-mixing

This is the process of remixing the multi-channel audio found on some discs

into two channels for stereo output. It is useful when you want to listen to the

5.1-channel audio recorded on DVDs through your television’s speakers.

Some discs prohibit down-mixing and this unit can then only output the front

two channels.

DPOF (Digital Print Order Format)

DPOF is the standard printing format for still picture data. It is used by

photo developing stores to print out the still picture data taken from a digital

camera and other equipment or when printing from your home printer.

DTS (Digital Theater Systems)

This surround system is used in many movie theaters around the world.

There is good separation between the channels, so realistic sound effects

are possible.

Dynamic range

Dynamic range is the difference between the lowest level of sound that can

be heard above the noise of the equipment and the highest level of sound

before distortion occurs. Dynamic range compression means reducing the

gap between the loudest and softest sounds. This means you can listen at

low volumes but still hear dialog clearly.

Film and video

DVD-Videos are recorded using either film or video. This unit can determine

which type has been used, then uses the most suitable method of

progressive output.

• Film is 24 or 30 frames per second, with motion picture film generally

being 24 frames per second.

• Video is 60 fields per second (two fields making up one frame).

Finalize

A process that makes play of a recorded CD-R, CD-RW or DVD-R etc.

possible on equipment that can play such media. You can finalize DVD-R on

this unit.

You cannot record onto or edit finalized discs.

Formatting

Formatting is the process of making media such as DVD-RAM recordable

on recording equipment. You can format the DVD-RAM on this unit.

Formatting erases irrevocably all recordings on the disc.

Frames and fields

Frames refer to the single images that constitute the video you see on your

television. Each frame consists of two fields.

• A frame still shows two fields, so there may be some blurring, but picture

quality is generally better.

• A field still shows less picture information so it may be rougher, but there is

no blurring.

JPEG (Joint Photographic Experts Group)

This is a system used for compressing/decoding color still pictures. If you

select JPEG as the storage system on digital cameras etc., the data will

be compressed to 1/10–1/100 of its original size. The special quality of this

standard is that there is little deterioration in picture quality in comparison to

the degree of compression.

LPCM (Linear pulse code modulation)

These are uncompressed digital signals. This unit outputs linear PCM sound

in 2 channels from the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal. LPCM sound is

available when recording in XP mode.

MP3 (MPEG Audio Layer 3)

An audio compression method that compresses audio to approximately one

tenth of its size without any considerable loss of audio quality. You can play

MP3 you have recorded onto CD-R and CD-RW.

Playback control (PBC)

If a Video CD has playback control, you can select scenes and information

with menus.

Progressive/Interlace

NTSC, the video signal standard, has 480 interlaced (I) scan lines, whereas

progressive scanning uses twice the number of scan lines. This is called

480P.

Using progressive output, you can enjoy the high-resolution video recorded

on media such as DVD-Video.

Your television must be compatible to enjoy progressive video.

Protection

You can prevent accidental erasure by setting writing protection or erasure

protection.

Sampling frequency

Sampling is the process of converting the heights of sound wave (analog

signal) samples taken at set periods into digits (digital encoding). Sampling

frequency is the number of samples taken per second, so larger numbers

mean more faithful reproduction of the original sound.

Subtitles

When dialogue which appears at the bottom of the screen.

TIFF (Tag Image File Format)

A still picture data standard A common format for storing high quality images

on digital camera’s and other devices.

VBR (Variable bitrate)

This is a method of video recording that adjusts the bit rate according to

video signal.
