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 17 and page 19).
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 18).
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 19).
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 22.
1� In the remote control code table ( page 25), find the
code for your device. If more than one code is listed, try
each one separately until you find one that works.
ꢀ� 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]).
ꢁ� While holding down
, press the Channel Number
buttons to enter the 3-digit code for your device.
ꢂ� 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.
ꢃ� 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.

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,

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 ꢀ, PC, or from channels 3 or 4, make sure the Input
Lock is set to Off ( page 47).
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 41).
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 42).
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, press and hold the POWER button on the TV control
panel for 5 or more seconds to reset the TV.
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:
Other problems
• If your TV’s problem is not addressed in this
Troubleshooting section or the recommended solution
has not worked, use the Restore Factory Defaults
procedure ( page 33).
TV will not turn on
– If the TV is connected to an A/V receiver that has a
programmable audio delay feature, use this feature to
help synchronize the sound to the picture.
– If you notice this phenomenon only on certain TV
channels, please contact your local broadcast, cable, or
satellite provider to inform them of this issue.
• Make sure the power cord is plugged in, and then press
.
• The remote control batteries may be dead. Replace the
batteries or try the control panel buttons.

Sound problems
• Check the antenna/cable connections ( Chapter 2).
• Check the antenna/cable connections ( Chapter 2).
• The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another
channel.
• The sound may be muted. Press VOLUME.
• If you hear no sound, try setting the MTS feature to
Stereo mode ( page 43).
• If you are not receiving a second audio program from a
known SAP source, make sure the MTS feature is set to
SAP mode ( page 43).
• If you hear audio that seems “incorrect” for the program
you are watching (such as music or a foreign language),
the SAP mode may be on. Set the MTS feature to Stereo
mode ( page 43).
• Press
on the remote control or TV and select a
valid video input source ( page 34). If no device is
connected to a particular input on the TV, no picture will
display when you select that particular input source. For
device connection details, see Chapter 2.
• Antenna reception may be poor. Use a highly directional
outdoor antenna (if applicable).
• The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another
channel.
• Adjust the picture qualities ( page 41).
• If you are using a VCR, make sure
control is set correctly ( page 22).
• Do not connect both a standard video cable and an
S-video cable to the VIDEO 1 input at the same time
( page 14).

Remote control problems
• Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device
mode ( page 21).
• Remove all obstructions between the remote control and
the TV.
• The remote control batteries may be dead. Replace the
batteries ( page 20).
Noisy picture
• If you are watching an analog channel (off-air broadcast
or Cable TV), you can set the CableClear® feature to
reduce visible interference in the TV picture ( page 52).
Video Input Selection problems
• Your TV remote control may not operate certain features
on your external device. Refer to the owner’s manual
for your other device to determine its available features.
If your TV remote control does not operate a specific
feature on another device, use the remote control that
came with the device ( pages 22–26).
• If the Input Selection window does not appear when
you press
on the remote control or TV, press
a
second time, which will change to the next video input
source and display the Input Selection window.
• If the TV still does not act as expected, use the Reset
Factory Defaults procedure ( page 33).

Chapter 8: Troubleshooting
Channel tuning problems
• Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device
mode ( page 21).
• The channel may have been erased from the channel
memory by the Channel Add/Delete feature. Add the
channel to the channel memory ( page 30).
• The channel may be blocked by the Channels Block
feature. Unblock the channel ( page 49).
• If you are unable to tune digital channels, check the
antenna configuration ( page 29). If you are still
unable to tune digital channels, clear all channels from
the channel list ( page 31) and reprogram channels
into the channel memory ( page 30). If you are still
unable to tune digital channels, use the Reset Factory
Defaults procedure ( page 33). Also see “TV stops
responding to controls” and “Other problems”
( page 53).
Closed caption problems
• If the program or video you selected is not closed-
captioned, no captions will display ( page 42).
• If text is not available, a black rectangle may appear. If
this happens, turn off the closed caption feature
( page 42).
• A closed-caption signal may not display correctly in
the following situations: a) when a videotape has been
dubbed; b) when the signal reception is weak; or c) when
the signal reception is nonstandard ( page 42).
Rating blocking (V-Chip) problems
• If you forget your PIN code: While the PIN code
entering screen is displayed, press
four times
within 5 seconds. The PIN code you previously stored
will be cleared ( page 45).
HDMI problems
For HDMI cables
• Make sure to use cables with the HDMI Logo
(
) ( page 17).
For Legacy HDMI source
• Some legacy HDMI sources may not work properly
with the latest HDMI TV products, due to new standard
adoption.
