• S-XGA: VESA 1280 5 1024 @ 60/75 Hz
However, these signal formats are converted to match the
number of pixels of the LCD panel.
Therefore, the TV may not display small text properly.
Notes:
• Some PC models cannot be connected to this TV.
• Certain PC signal formats may not be detected correctly.
• There is no need to use an adapter for computers with DOS/
V compatible mini D-sub 15 pin terminal.
• A bar may appear at the edges of the screen, or parts of the
picture may be obscured depending on some signals. This
is not the malfunction.
• If the edges of the picture are stretched, readjust the picture
position adjustments in the PC Setting menu.
• Depending on the specification of the PC you are playing
the DVD-Video on, and the DVD’s title, some scenes may be
skipped, or you may not be able to pause during multi-angle
scenes.

To connect a PC to the HDMI terminal on the TV:
When connecting a PC to the HDMI terminal on the TV, use
an HDMI-to DVI adapter cable and analog audio cables.
If connecting a PC with an HDMI terminal, use an HDMI cable
(type A connector). Separate analog cables are not necessary.
The HDMI input can accept and display VGA, 480i, 480p,
576i, 576p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p signal formats.
Notes:
• The edges of the images may be hidden.
• If receiving a 720p, 1080i, or 1080p signal program, PC
mode scales the video to display the entire picture within the
borders of the screen (e.g. no overscanning) (
- page 14).
