Introduction
Thank you for choosing RCA Scenium
Congratulations on purchasing this RCA Scenium High Definition Television (HDTV) featuring
Digital Light Processing™ (DLP™) technology—a true viewing experience. Your purchase decision
represents an investment in a new generation of technology—DLP™ and HDTV. Even though this
is a technologically advanced HDTV, it is the most user-friendly of its kind—with comprehensive
on-screen instructions that guide you through all of the TV’s features.
This introduction has three parts that describe why an RCA Scenium HDTV featuring DLP
technology is an excellent choice:
Part 1: DLP—brilliance in color, design, and technology
Part 2: Why RCA Scenium DLP is better
Part 3: Other Key Features of owning an RCA Scenium HDTV
Part 1: DLP— brilliance, in color, design, and technology
RCA Scenium brings you brilliant pictures with Digital Light Processing (DLP) system — a brilliantly
choreographed, engineering marvel that combines microscopic mirrors, light, and color to bring
you the best and brightest pictures possible.
How DLP Works
In general, DLP combines microscopic mirrors, a specially
designed semiconductor, and a color wheel to adjust light to
display the most brilliant, accurate images! Your DLP HDTV
doesn’t use Cathode Ray Tubes (CRTs), which means you
don’t have to worry about screen burn (fixed video images
burning onto the screen permanently) or convergence
(realigning the CRTs). The diagram on the left illustrates the
complex system.
Thin and Light
The efficiency of DLP technology enabled our design team
to create a high-performance HDTV that is about 16 inches
thin and weighs less than 100 pounds.
Lamp Replacement
DLP technology uses a special lamp. Eventually, you’ll need
to replace this lamp, which you can do yourself by
following the replacement instructions on page 74. To order
the correct lamp, you’ll need to know your TV’s model
number, serial number, and lamp type—this information is
listed on the Service Model Number sticker (example of the
sticker is shown on the left). The sticker is located on the
right side of the TV. The lamp type can also be found in the
TV’s Lamp Power menu. Go to page 67 for more
information. For future reference, write down the
information in the space provided at the left.
