Features and Controls
PIP (Picture-in-Picture) Operation
The PIP (picture-in-picture) feature lets you display a second, smaller
picture on top of the main picture.
Your TV is equipped with a single tuner that tunes to cable or off-air
television signals. The PIP feature on your TV requires a second video
source, like a VCR or satellite receiver to supply the second picture to the
screen. The PIP feature also requires connecting the second video source
to the TV with audio/video cables.
PIP Buttons
There are four remote buttons that control the way the PIP window
works:
PIP
Brings up the PIP window. Press PIP again to remove the window.
When PIP Caption Display – Alternate with PIP – has been selected, will
display captioning in the PIP window.
MOVE buttons
Let you move the PIP window to different areas of the
screen.
SWAP
Switches, or “swaps,” the video from the PIP window with the
main picture.
CH CTRL
(Channel Control) Lets you switch channel control between
the PIP window and the main picture. To determine whether you are
controlling the PIP or the main picture, bring up the Channel Marker
(detailed on the following page). The yellow channel number is the one
you are controlling.
Using the PIP Feature
While you may use PIP in different ways, this basic PIP scenario should
get you started. While watching the TV, follow these steps to use your
VCR to supply the picture for PIP.
1.
Press the PIP button on the remote. The PIP window appears on the
screen.
2.
Turn on the VCR.
3.
Press the TV button, then press WHO•INPUT until you see the VCR
signal displayed in the PIP window. The PIP window should display
the channel that you have the VCR tuned to.
4.
To change the program in the PIP window, you need to change the
channel on the VCR because that is the signal source for the PIP
picture. Press the VCR button on the remote to get into VCR mode,
then change channels.
5.
Use the channel up and down buttons and the other PIP buttons,
MOVE, SWAP and CH CTRL to adjust the two pictures.
A typical use of SWAP is to scan through
channels in the PIP window, and when
you find a channel you like, press SWAP
to display that channel in the main
picture, sending the current channel to
the PIP window.
You must change the mode between the
TV and VCR after every SWAP.
