Selecting input resolution
Some input signals may have to be registered manually to display properly. The pairs of input signals (resolutions) in the list below are not distinguishable when received. In such cases, you have to set the correct signal manually. After setting once, it will display when the same signal (resolution) is input again.
When Auto Sync. is successful, Auto Sync completed successfully displays. If not, Auto Sync. failed. Auto Sync. may fail even if Auto Sync completed successfully displays. Auto Sync. may fail if the PC image has low resolution, has unclear (black) edges, or is moved while executing Auto Sync. Be sure to connect the PC to the TV and switch it on before starting Auto Sync. Auto Sync. can be executed only when inputting analogue signals through the EXT4 terminal.

PC Control of the TV

When a programme is set, the TV can be controlled from the PC using the RS-232C terminal. The input signal (PC/video) can be selected, the volume can be adjusted and various other adjustments and settings can be made, enabling automatic programmed playing. Use an RS-232C serial control cable (cross type) (commercially available) for the connections. NOTE
This operation system should be used by a person who is accustomed to using PCs.

Parameter

No picture.

No sound.
The TV sometimes makes a cracking sound.
This is not a malfunction. This happens when the cabinet slightly expands and contracts according to changes in temperature. This does not affect the TVs performance.
Cautions regarding use in high and low temperature environments
When the TV is used in a low temperature space (e.g. room, office), the picture may leave trails or appear slightly delayed. This is not a malfunction, and the TV will recover when the temperature returns to normal. Do not leave the TV in a hot or cold location. Also, do not leave the TV in a location exposed to direct sunlight or near a heater, as this may cause the cabinet to deform and the LCD panel to malfunction. Storage temperature: e5 C to e35 C.
