Using the TV’s Menu System
Time Menu
The Time menu lets you set up time-related features and a 1394 timed
recording. Time menu consists of Sleep Timer, Record/Wake Timer, and Time
of Day.
• Sleep Timer A one-time event that is used to set the TV to turn off at a
specific time.
• Record/Wake Timer Used to turn the TV on and off at a specific time
every day of the week and tune to a specific channel. In addition, it sets the
TV to make a 1394 recording if a 1394 component is connected, set up, and
the channel selected is digital. See pages 59, 60, and 72 for more
information on a 1394 recording.
• Time of Day Enables you to enter the correct time manually if it hasn’t
been acquired automatically.
Note: If your TV does not automatically acquire the time, you must
remember to set your TV’s time when the time changes to Daylight Saving
Time. Sleep Timer and Record/Wake Timer will not function as you expect
if you forget to change the TV’s time.

Antenna Info
This screen lists any channel EVER added to the TV. The list shows the channel
number, the station name when tuned, e.g. NBC, whether the channel is digital
or analog, which antenna is picking up the channel, and current signal strength
of digital channels.
When you move the highlight to the Antenna Info list, the TV attempts to tune
to the channel. You can then adjust your off-air antenna for maximum signal
strength (largest number) for the selected channel. The signal strength for a
digital channel will be shown as “- -” until the signal is strong enough for use,
then numbers will appear. Analog channels will always have the display,
“N/A”, since analog signal strength is not measured.
Only primary channels appear in the list. Subchannels, e.g. 8-1, 8-2, do not
appear.
Connections Menu
The Connections menu specifies various ways to adjust the inputs to your television. Items in
the Connections menu are: Antenna Info, Channel Search, Software Upgrade, Signal Source,
Signal Type, Auto Tuning, 1394 Setup, Special Features, and Ethernet Setup.
