Philips 43PP9202 Quick Use And Setup Manual

Text of the manual

his section shows you how to make a basic TV connection

using a cable TV or antenna signal. If you have cable TV service, you’ll simply connect the coaxial cable lead-in from the cable TV company to your TV. If you intend to connect a VHF/UHF antenna, you may need a 300- to 75-ohm adapter, which is not supplied with your TV. NOTE: You should be able to buy optional accessories such as a VHF/UHF antenna or a 300- to 75-ohm adapter at most stores that sell electronics. Or you can call our Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039. 1 Connect the Cable TV or antenna signal to the ANTENNA IN 75Ωjack on the rear of the TV. NOTE: If you are using an antenna with a round coaxial cable (75Ω), then you are ready to connect to the back of the TV. If your antenna has a flat, twin-lead wire (300Ω), you must first attach the antenna wires on a 300- to 75- ohm adapter. Then push the round end of the adapter onto the ANTENNA IN 75Ωjack on the rear of the TV. 2 Insert the TV’s power plug into the wall power outlet. 3135 035 20401 Rear-projection HDTV Monitor Rear-projection HDTV Monitor Quick Use and Setup Guide Quick Use and Setup Guide MAKING BASIC TV CONNECTIONS Twin-lead Wire 300- to 75-ohm Adapter OR Coaxial Cable Lead-in from Antenna Cable TV Company Rear of TV Coaxial Cable Coaxial Cable Lead-in from Cable TV Company Outdoor or Indoor Antenna (Combination VHF/UHF) VIDEO S-VIDEO L Pb Pr VIDEO S-VIDEO L AUDIO L R AUDIO L R G/Y R/Pr B/Pb V H SYNC L R AUDIO HD INPUT-AV 4 INPUT-AV 2 OUTPUT INPUT-AV 1 ANTENNA IN 75Ω Y The combination antenna receives normal broadcast channels 2-13 (VHF) and 14-69 (UHF). 1 CONTENTS Important Notice/Warning . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1 Making Basic TV Connections . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .1–2 Operating the Television and Remote Control . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .2–3 Using the Installation Features . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .4–6 Using the Picture-in-Picture (PIP) Feature . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .6–7 Adjusting the Manual Converge Controls . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .8 ANTENNA OR CABLE TV BEST VIEWING T he major benefit of this projection television is its large view- ing screen. To see this large screen at its best, test various locations in the room to find the optimal spot for viewing. NOTE: Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the per- forated back cover of the set. To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV where temperatures can become excessively hot—for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance. Magnetic fields, such as those of external speak- ers, may cause the picture to distort if the speak- ers are placed too close to the television. Move the magnetic field source away from the TV until there is no picture distortion. CABLES AND CONNECTORS I f you are new to making TV hookups, you may want to read this section. (The cables and connectors discussed are not sup- plied with your set. You can buy them at most stores that sell audio or video products. Or call our Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.) This publication provides you with examples of basic connections. See pages 6–15 in the Directions for Use manual for more infor- mation and connection examples. A 75-ohm coaxial cable connects signals from an antenna or a cable TV company to the antenna jack on the back of the TV. Coaxial cables use “F” connectors. A two-way signal splitter enables you to take a single antenna or cable TV signal and supply it to two different inputs. A 300- to 75-ohm twin-lead adapter accepts the antenna cables (called twin-lead wires) from an antenna, allowing you to connect the antenna signal to the TV. Video and audio cables with standard RCA (phono) connectors con- nect the video and audio jacks of accessory devices such as VCRs and DVD players to the jacks on the TV. To simplify making connections, the connectors are usually color coded. The jacks on your TV are likewise color coded to match the colors of the connectors. The coding is as follows: yellow for video (composite) and red and white for the right and left audio channels, respectively. Use an audio cable with a white connector when making mono, or nonstereo, connections. The connectors of video cables used to connect component video or RGB (high-resolution) jacks are often color coded red, green, and blue. Component video connec- tions provide you with the highest possible color and picture resolution. An S-Video cable connects devices such as DVD players, VCRs, or camcorders to your TV. S-Video provides better picture performance than regular (composite) video connections. S- Video cables can be used only with S-Video-com- patible accessory devices.

IMPORTANT This owner's manual is used with several differ- ent television models. Not all features (and draw- ings) discussed in this manual will necessarily match those found with your television set. This is normal and does not require that you contact your dealer or request service. WARNING: TO PREVENT FIRE OR SHOCK HAZARD DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR EXCESSIVE MOISTURE.

The picture for the PIP window can come from an antenna or cable TV signal, or from AV1, AV2, or AV3. NOTE: CVI cannot be displayed in the PIP window, and AV 4 does not function with PIP. The following connections explained below will allow you to use a VCR as a second tuner specifically for PIP. In other words, you can use the VCR to select channels for viewing in the PIP window. This is just one example of how you can use PIP. Note, too, that you can swap the main and PIP pictures on screen. See page 7 in this publication for information on viewing PIP pic- tures and using the PIP buttons. To make the connections shown in this example, you will need: • a two-way signal splitter • two coaxial cables (75Ω) • one cable for a video connection (standard RCA connector) • two cables for audio connections (standard RCA connectors). NOTE: The two-way signal splitter and cables are not supplied with your TV. You should be able to buy them at most stores that sell elec- tronics. Or you can call our Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039. 1 Connect an antenna or cable TV signal to a two-way signal splitter. 2 Use coaxial cables to connect from the two-way signal splitter to the ANTENNA IN 75Ωjack on the rear of the TV and to the ANTENNA IN jack on the rear of the VCR. 3 Connect the VIDEO OUT jack on the VCR to the INPUT-AV1 VIDEO jack on the rear of the TV. 4 Connect the AUDIO OUT jacks, L(eft)/R(ight), on the rear of the VCR to the INPUT-AV 1 AUDIO jacks, L(eft)/R(ight,) on the rear of the TV. PIP Window Main Screen PICTURE SOUND FEATURES INSTALL LANGUAGE TUNER MODE AUTO PROGRAM CHANNEL EDIT AutoChron You can use a variety of connections to provide input sources for view- ing in PIP. For more information, see the sec- tion on “Connecting Accessory Devices to Your TV,” beginning on page 6 in the Directions for Use manual. c CHECK IT OUT HELPFUL HINT If your VCR is mono (nonstereo), you will connect only one audio cable. You must be sure that the TV is set to MONO for the AV input source to which you’ve connected the VCR (INPUT-AV 1, INPUT-AV 2, or the side panel inputs [AV3]). Otherwise, you will receive sound from only one of the TV’s speakers. See page 34 in the Directions for Use manual that came with the TV.
