Connecting to a Digital TV Receiver
By inputting a High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection high-definition picture source to the
Digital-In terminal of this television, high-definition pictures can be displayed on the screen in
their digital form. (This terminal is for use in the future when High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection DTV decoders, DVD players and D-VHS are put on the market.)
1) Connect the DTV Digital RGB Output Terminal to the DIGITAL-IN Digital Input Terminal on
the back of the TV.
2) Connect the Red Cable from the DTV Decoder Right Audio Output into the Right Audio
Input. VCR Audio Output into the Red TV Audio In.
3) Connect the Red Cable from the DTV Decoder Right Audio Output into the Right Audio
Input. VCR Audio Output into the Red TV Audio In.
NOTE:
• The Digital-In Terminal can only be used with 1080i and 480p picture signals. Set the DTV
Decode Digital-Out Terminal Output setting to 1080i or 480p. For detailed information, refer
to the DTV decoder instruction manual. If you cannot display the picture because your DTV
decoder does not have a Digital-Out Terminal Output setting, use the component Video Input
(or the S-Video Input or Video Input). (Refer to page 13 or 14.) In this case the picture will
be displayed as an analog signal.
• The Digital-In Terminal is not compatible with the picture signal of a personal computer.
• Use a DVI 25-pin cable (commercially available) in order to digitally connect the TV with a
DTV Decoder.
• If the connection shown above is used, the DTV signal will be available on Digital-In on the
Input Menu. (Refer to page 41.)
If 480p signals (640 x 480 or 720 x 480) are displayed on the screen, the horizontal balance
may be slightly shifted. In cases such as this, the horizontal balance can be adjusted by
accessing “DIGITAL-IN” in the INITIALSETUP Menu. (Refer to page 41.)
