Source PC & AV Explained  
DTV  
For ATSC tuner use only. ATSC tuner is a high definition over the airwave  
tuner that uses a high definition antenna to tune to local channels. If your  
local channel broadcasts in high definition this tuner will display high  
definition picture on the TV.  
HDMI-1 HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. This type of  
HDMI-2 connection is designed so that 1 single cable can handle both high definition  
digital video and audio at the same time. To view video and listen to audio  
with this source you must have a HDMI to HDMI cable. This type of  
connection is primarily used by satellite or digital cable boxes and up  
conversion DVD players.  
HDCP-1 HDCP stands for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. This type of  
HDCP-2 function is designed so high definition video cannot be copied while hooked  
up to a recording device. HDCP is enabled in HDMI and in HDCP DVI mode.  
This type of connection is primarily used by satellite or digital cable boxes  
and up conversion DVD players. Please note to get sound out of HDCP mode  
you must connect an audio cable from your audio video device to the audio  
port labeled “PC Audio In”.  
DVI-1  
DVI-2  
DVI stands for Digital Video Interface. This type of connection is designed so  
video can be digitally transferred to the television therefore display the colors

of any video more accurately and vividly. This interface can be used by both  
PC and video displaying devices such as DVD player, satellite box, or digital  
cable box…etc. Please note to get sound out of DVI mode you must  
connect an audio cable from your audio video device to the audio port labeled  
“PC Audio In”.

primarily used by personal computers. Please note to get sound out of VGA  
mode you must connect an audio cable from your audio video device to the  
audio port labeled “PC Audio In”.  
TV  
This connection is for TV tuner only. TV tuner is actually a NTSC standard  
tuner, which can scan over the airwave UHF/VHF or Analog Cable (cable  
directly hooked up into the TV) TV stations and display them at standard  
definition (regular TV video resolution). This connection is primarily used  
by non-HD antennas or analog cables.  
AV1/AV2 This connection is for common audio video devices that use RCA (red yellow  
white) cable. This connection is primarily used by VCR, DVD player, DV  
camcorder, and video game consoles (XBOX 360, PS3, Gamecube).  
YPbPr 1 (Component) High definition audio video devices can be connected to the port  
via 3 wires, red, green, and blue. Older audio video devices that  
display high definition video use this port. This connection is  
primarily used by DVD player, satellite box, digital cable box,  
and video game consoles (XBOX 360, PS3, Gamecube).  
VGA-YPbPr 2  
This is a duplicate for YPbPr 1 (Component). Please use the  
optional VGA to Component conversion cable.

Aspect Explained  
1.  
Auto  
This aspect ratio automatically adjust to the picture’s original format. If 16:9 the  
full screen will be used. If 4:3, black bars will be added on the side.  
16:9  
2.  
When watching a standard broadcast or full-frame movie in this mode, the display  
image is stretched horizontally to fill the TV screen. When watching a widescreen  
(1.76:1 source) program or movie, the display image fills the TV screen. If you are  
watching a widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1 source) program or movie, there will still  
be black bars at the top and bottom. Note : When in HD mode or connected to a  
HD set-top box that controls the resolution you will not be able to choose your  
aspect ratio.  
3.  
4:3  
The original 4:3 aspect ratio (1.33:1 source) is preserved, so black bars are added to  
the left and right of the display image. Standard TV broadcasts are displayed with a  
4:3 Aspect Ratio. Movies in 4:3 Aspect Ratio may be referred to as pan-and-scan or  
full frame. These movies were originally filmed in 16:9 (widescreen), and then  
modified to fit a traditional TV screen (4:3). Note : When in HD mode or  
connected to a HD set-top box that controls the resolution you will not be able to  
choose your aspect ratio.  
SCEPTRE X42

4.  
Zoom Full  
When watching a 4:3 aspect ratio TV or movie, this mode zooms in to cut off most  
of the black bars on the side while preserving the 16:9 ratio. Because of the zoom,  
the top and bottom are cut off as well. Note : When in HD mode or connected to a  
HD set-top box that controls the resolution you will not be able to choose your  
aspect ratio.  
5.  
Zoom Subtitle  
This mode is primarily used when you’re watching a movie where the widescreen  
aspect ratio is not 16:9 but rather 1.85:1 or 2.35:1. Since black bars at the top and  
bottom, this zoom mode cuts off the top black bar but preserves the bottom for  
subtitle purposes. Note : When in HD mode or connected to a HD set-top box that  
controls the resolution you will not be able to choose your aspect ratio.

Picture In Picture Explained  
Picture In Picture is a display mode where 1 TV can display 2 different types of video  
sources simultaneously. This is done with 1 small window at a corner of the TV  
displaying 1 video source while the other video source is displayed on the entire screen.  
The “Picture In Picture” function for this television is NOT designed for viewing 2 TV  
stations at the same time, but rather viewing analog and digital video sources at the same  
time. For example playing your DVD movie through component (YPbPr) port but also  
having the small window to display your TV tuner channels to keep up with news. The  
general rule of PIP is any Source PC sources can be used in PIP when you’re on any  
Source AV sources and vice versa. None of the Source PC sources can be used in PIP  
when you’re already in one of the Source PC sources.

different sound cards, the output might send out 1Vrms, therefore  
increases the possibility of popping the X42’s speaker. Please make

RATING  
Toggles the rating chart to block children from viewing violent TV.  
The rating system for the X42 functions as a content filter for the TV.  
The rating system provides two styles of filtering, MPAA and USTV.  
MPAA follows the motion picture association of America rating system  
commonly seen in movie theaters. This filtering method filters movies  
that your kids watch. The USTV rating system filters regular TV  
sitcoms and series, it filters an age limit on each TV program also  
filters specific contents such as violence, sexual situation, coarse  
language.

Rating Explained  
General Operation  
To block channels you don’t want your kids to watch, you can filter them with the ratings  
function. MPAA lets you control ratings for movies you allow your kids to watch on the  
TV. For regular TV sitcoms or series you can use USTV settings. USTV settings lets  
you filter what content you want each age level, TV-Y, to TV-MA (refer to definitions  
below) to be able to watch. Look at the rolls you will see each age level. The columns  
consists of different content representations (refer to definitions below). Set the blocking  
on each age limit by high lighting the corresponding column and press ENTER. You  
can unblock by re-pressing the ENTER button at the same location. After you have  
finished setting ratings up, press MENU to exit.
