Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

HDMI™ cable (with HDMI Logo “

”)

Overview of cable types

Cables can be purchased from most stores that sell audio/

video devices. Before purchasing any cables, be sure of

connector types required by your devices and the length of

each cable.

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) cable is for

use with devices with an HDMI output. An HDMI cable

delivers digital audio and video in its native format. This

cable carries both video and audio information; therefore,

separate audio cables are not required for a complete HDMI

device connection (ꢀ page 15 and page 18).

Coaxial (F-type) cable

Note: HDMI cable provides better picture performance than

a standard (composite) video or S-video cable.

Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your antenna,

cable TV service, and/or cable converter box to the ANT/

CABLE input on your TV.

Optical audio cable

Standard A/V cables (red/white/yellow)

Optical audio cable is for connecting receivers with Dolby

Digital or PCM (pulse-code modulation) optical audio input

to the TV’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal (ꢀ page 17).

Standard A/V cables (composite video) usually come in sets

of three, and are for use with video devices with analog audio

and composite video output. These cables (and the related

inputs on your TV) are typically color-coded according to

use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for

stereo left (or mono) audio.

Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable

Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable is for connecting a PC

to the TV’s PC IN terminal (ꢀ page 18).

S-video cable

About the connection illustrations

S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video

output. Separate audio cables are required for a complete

connection.

You can connect different types and brands of devices to

your TV in several different configurations. The connection

illustrations in this manual are representative of typical

device connections only. The input/output terminals on your

devices may differ from those illustrated herein. For details

on connecting and using your specific devices, refer to each

device’s owner’s manual.

Note: An S-video cable provides better picture performance

than a composite video cable. If you connect an S-video

cable, be sure to disconnect the standard (composite) video

cable or the picture performance will be unacceptable.

Component video cables (red/green/blue)

Component video cables come in sets of three and are for

use with video devices with component video output.

(ColorStream^®is Toshiba’s brand of component video.) These

cables are typically color-coded red, green, and blue. Separate

audio cables are required for a complete connection.

Note: Component video cables provide better picture

performance than a standard (composite) video or S-video

cable.

Chapter 3: Using the remote control

Programming the remote control

to control your other devices

Your Toshiba TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate

most Toshiba devices. To program your TV remote control to

operate a non-Toshiba device (or a Toshiba device that it is not

preprogrammed to operate), follow the steps below. For details

on using the remote control to operate the device, see page 21.

1 ^{In the remote control code table (ꢀ page 24), find the}

code for your device. If more than one code is listed, try

each one separately until you find one that works.

2 ^{Set the MODE SELECT switch to the type of device}

you are programming the remote control to operate —

CABLE/SAT (for a cable converter box or satellite

receiver), AUX 1 (for a VCR or TV/VCR combo), or

AUX 2 (for a DVD player or HTIB [home theater in a

box]).

3 ^{While holding down}

, press the Channel Number

buttons to enter the 3-digit code for your device.

4 ^{To test the code, turn on the device, point the remote}

control at it, and press

. See notes below.

• If the correct code was entered, the device will turn

off.

• If the device does not respond, repeat steps 1–4 using

another code.

• If the device does not respond to another code, you

will need to use the remote control that came with the

device.

5 ^{Remember to set the MODE SELECT switch back to}

“TV” to control the TV.

6 ^{For future reference, write down the code(s) you used:}

DEVICE

CODE

DEVICE

CODE

Note:

• In addition to POWER, confirm that all necessary keys on

the TV remote control operate your device. If some keys are

not operational, repeat the device code setup using another

code (if other codes are listed for your device). If, after

trying all listed codes, the necessary keys do not operate

your device, use the device’s original remote control.

• Every time you change the batteries, you will need to

reprogram the remote control.

• Some newer VCRs respond to either of two codes. These

VCRs have a switch labeled “VCR1/VCR2.” If your VCR has

this kind of switch and does not respond to the codes for

your VCR brand, set the switch to the other position (“VCR1”

or “VCR2”) and reprogram the remote control.

Programming channels automatically

Your TV can automatically detect all active channels in your

area and store them in its memory. After the channels are

programmed automatically, you can manually add or erase

individual channels in the channel memory.

Note:

• You must configure the ANT/CABLE input source before

programming channels (ꢀ page 28).

• The automatic channel programming process will erases

channels that were previously programmed into the TV’s

memory.

• To tune the TV to a channel not programmed in the channel

memory, you must use the Channel Number buttons on the

remote control.

The TV will automatically cycle through all the antenna

channels, and store all active channels in the channel

memory. While the TV is cycling through the channels,

the message “Scanning channels, please wait” appears (as

shown above).

• Programming channels when the ANT/CABLE input is

configured for Cable will take substantially longer than

when the antenna input is configured for Antenna. This is

normal; however, once channel programming is finished,

you should not have to repeat the programming process

again unless your Cable TV service lineup changes

significantly.

Chapter 8: Troubleshooting

Cannot view external signals or channel 3 or 4

General troubleshooting

• If you cannot view signals from external devices

connected to VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, ColorStream^®HDMI 1,

HDMI 2, HDMI 3, PC, or from channels 3 or 4, make sure

the Input Lock is set to Off (ꢀ page 46).

Before calling a service technician, please check this chapter

for a possible cause of the problem and some solutions you

can try.

Poor color or no color

• The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another

channel.

• Adjust the Tint and/or Color (ꢀ page 40).

Black box on-screen

• The closed caption feature is set to one of the Text modes

(T1, T2, T3, or T4). Set the closed caption feature to Off (ꢀ

page 41).

Poor composite or S-video picture

• If the TV is connected to an external A/V device (e.g.,

DVD player, video game system, set-top box, etc.) try

using a ColorStream or HDMI video connection instead.

TV stops responding to controls

• If the TV stops responding to the controls on the remote

control or TV control panel and you cannot turn off the

TV, please unplug the power cords few seconds then re-

plug to try again.

Picture and sound are out of sync

• As with all products that contain a digital display, in rare

instances, when viewing certain content (e.g.. television

broadcasts, video games, DVDs), you may notice that

the sound and picture are slightly out of sync. This

phenomenon can be caused by various factors including,

without limitation, video processing within the TV,

video processing in an attached gaming system, and

video processing or different compression rates used by

broadcasters in their programming. You may want to try

one or more of the following suggestions, which may

help to reduce the effect of this phenomenon:
