Connecting Accessory Devices to Your TV
• Making a standard connection along with the HD connection as shown
in the example (S-VIDEO) on this page will allow you to see the receiv-
er’s onscreen menu and a picture (valid signal) from the receiver should
it be switched to SD mode.
•The HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks are for standard RCA connectors. Your HD
receiver may use RCA or BNC output jacks. If your HD receiver comes
with BNC jacks, you will need to purchase BNC-to-RCA adapters to
connect the receiver to the TV. You should be able to purchase these
adapters at most stores that sell electronics. Or you can call our
Customer Care Center at 1-800-531-0039.
•The HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks are compatible with some digital equipment
having RGB outputs with “sync on green” or RGB with “separate H and V
sync.” Output standards for digital equipment, however, may vary by manu-
facturer. No industry standards have been established for HD television RGB
signal systems, timing, synchronization, and signal strengths. If the digital
equipment you want to connect to your TV offers both component video and
RGB outputs, component video is the suggested connection to use.
• The default color-space setting for the HD INPUT-AV 4 jacks is YPbPr.
RGB is also an option. If the picture color looks grossly incorrect, try
changing either the receiver’s or TV’s color space. See the receiver’s
directions-for-use manual for information on setting its color space. Or
see page 59 in this manual for setting the TV’s AV4 color space.
•AV4 and AV5 do not function with the PIP feature. They cannot be dis-
played in the PIP window, nor can the PIP window be displayed when
those signal sources are being viewed on the main screen.

igital equipment with a 1080i or 480p out-
put, is compatible with the HD INPUT-AV 4
video jacks.
NOTE: This television is designed to be compati-
ble with high-definition signal standards 1080i
and 480p as specified by the Electronic Industries
Association standard EIA770.3. Because output
standards may vary by manufacturer, you may
encounter some digital equipment that will not
properly display pictures on the TV.
