Explanation of Jacks

This section describes the jacks you can use to make connections. There are several ways to connect components to

your TV.

DVI-HDTV Input Lets you connect an HD receiver with a DVI output.

• DVI (Digital Visual Interface) Provides an uncompressed, digital video interface developed for

high-bandwidth digital connection. It supports the overlay of high-resolution graphics needed

by some electronic program guide navigation and other interactive services. DVI, when

combined with HDCP (High bandwidth Digital Content Protection) technology, creates a

protected digital connection. The signal speed of the DVI connection is 1080i for HDTV at a rate

of 1.78 Gigabits per second.

• L/MONO (Audio) Provides left audio connection when using the DVI jack. The left audio

connector is usually white.

• R (Audio) Provides right audio connection when using the DVI jack. The right audio connector

is usually red.

Note: Remember to connect the left and right audio cables because the DVI cable carries only the picture signal,

not the sound.

COMPONENT INPUTS Lets you connect a component video source, such as a DVD player.

• CMP1 Y, P

, P

(Component Video) Provides optimum picture quality because the video is

separated into three signals. Use three video-grade cables for the connection. When using CMP1

Y, P

, P

, make sure to connect left and right audio cables to the CMP1 L/MONO and R Audio

Input jacks.

• CMP1 L/MONO (Audio) Provides left audio connection. The left audio connector is usually

white.

• CMP1 R (Audio) Provides right audio connection. The right audio connector is usually red.

• CMP2 Y, P

, P

, and L/MONO and R Audio Allows you to connect a second component video

source. Their description is the same as CMP1 above. When using CMP2 Y, P

, P

, make sure you

connect the left and right audio cables to the CMP2 Audio jacks.

COMPOSITE INPUTS Lets you connect another component such as a VCR, DVD player, or laserdisc

player. Its AUDIO jacks are the same as described for CMP1 above.

• VID1 S-VIDEO Provides better picture quality than the video jacks (VID1 and 2 Video) because

the color part of the signal is separated from the black and white part of the picture. When

using VID1 S-VIDEO, make sure to connect left and right audio cables to the VID1 L/MONO and

R Audio Input jacks.

• VID1 V (Video) Provides composite video connection. The video connector is usually yellow.

• VID2 S-VIDEO, V and L/MONO and R Audio Allows you to connect a component such as a

VCR, DVD player, or laserdisc player. Their description is the same as VID1 above.

Note: Do not connect an S-Video and Video cable at the same time in either VID1 or VID2 jacks.

AUDIO/VIDEO OUTPUTS Lets you connect an amplifier or audio receiver for improved sound

quality or an external video monitor.

• FIXED AUDIO L/R Provides fixed-level audio output from the TV. This audio output is ideal for

connecting to an A/V receiver when you want to control the volume through the A/V receiver.

• VARIABLE AUDIO Provides variable-level audio output. Volume levels are controlled by the

volume controls on the TV and remote control.

• SUBWOOFER Provides lower bass audio frequencies out from the TV and to a subwoofer.

Note: If you’ve connected a subwoofer, make sure you set the External Subwoofer option in the Sound menu. Go to

page 22 for instructions.

EXTERNAL SPEAKERS

• Right and Left Speaker Terminals Let you connect external left and right speakers to the TV

to receive left and right sound.

• EXT/INT (switch) Lets you turn the TV’s internal speakers on or off. EXT sends audio to

external speakers only. INT sends audio to the TV’s internal speakers only.

ANTENNA/CABLE Lets you connect a coaxial cable to receive the signal from the antenna, cable,

cable box, or if using the examples on pages 6-8, a VCR.
