PIP Troubleshooting
•
The PIP feature on this TV only works if you connect a second
video source (like a VCR or satellite receiver), to your TV with
audio/video cables. If you use a cable box, you may need extra
equipment. Refer to page 52 for more information.
•
Swap won’t work? Make sure the remote is in the right mode.
For example, once you turn on the VCR with the VCR1 button,
you can’t SWAP the pictures until you put the remote in TV
mode. Just press the TV button.
•
No signal or bad reception? Most VCRs and satellite receivers
have an antenna or TV/VCR button. Press the antenna or TV/
VCR button on the front of the component.
Note:
If you programmed the Universal remote control to operate
your VCR, the ANTENNA button on the remote acts as a TV/VCR
button.
•
Every time you change channels, the same channel appears in
both windows (the main picture and the PIP picture).
A. Press the CH CRL button on the remote until the TV picture
channel number is highlighted. The channel buttons on your
remote control
won’t work correctly for PIP when the
VID
channel is
highlighted.
B.
The only way to successfully change channels for the picture,
that is coming from the channel on your VCR (the
VID
channel),
is to press
the channel buttons on the VCR or on the VCR’s remote control.

To change the PIP channel, press the channel
buttons on the VCR. To change the TV
channel, press CH CTRL until the TV channel
is highlighted (yellow) and press the CH up
and down button on the remote control.
You must use audio/video cables to
connect your VCR to your TV in order for
PIP to work.
This example shows the connection for
VID1 (the VCR is connected to the INPUT 1
connection.) If you want to use VID2,
connect the VCR to the INPUT 2 connection
on the back of your TV.
