IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT “HOT LAMP RESTART”
When the TV has been powered on long enough for the lamp
unit to get hot, it may take several minutes for the picture to
appear on-screen in the following situations:
• When the Quick Restart™ feature is set to OFF and
you turn the TV off and then on again within a few
minutes; or
• If the TV is on when a short-term power failure, power
surge, or other similar power failure occurs, such that
the TV loses and regains power within a few minutes.
This is a property of DLP™ TV lamp technology and is
NOT a sign of malfunction.
If this occurs, the yellow LED on the TV front panel will blink
(and the blue LED will be lit solid) until the TV is finished
restarting the lamp and the normal picture appears. If both
LEDs are blinking, you will need to turn the TV off and then
on again to restart the lamp.

• If a valid code is entered, the device button LED will
blink twice.
Note: Although your new TV’s remote control includes codes
for many devices, it may not include codes for some or all of
the features on certain devices you wish to control. If you are
unable to program the TV’s remote control to operate your
device or some of the features on that device, use the device’s
remote control or the controls on the device.
• If an invalid code is entered, the device button LED will
blink one long blink.
4
Point the remote control at the device and press p to test
the code.
• If the device responds to the remote control, you have
entered the correct code.
• If the device does not respond to the remote control,
repeat steps 3 and 4 using another code.
Note: After programming the remote control, make sure
all necessary keys on the TV remote control (in addition to
p) 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.

• Although the TV remote control includes codes for many
devices, it may not include codes for some or all of the
features on certain devices you want to control. If you are
unable to program the TV remote control to operate your
device or some of the features on that device, use the
device’s original remote control (or the control buttons on
the device).
• 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.
(z Z and W) are locked to the “TV” device mode.
The remote control will operate the TV’s volume, even when
“TV” is not the current device mode. (This includes all remote
control device modes except AUX 1 and AUX 2).
If you unlock the remote control’s volume keys, each device
mode will have its own volume (if the device ID has volume
data). The remote control will operate the volume of the device
associated with the current device mode. (This includes all
remote control device modes.)
If you lock the remote control’s volume keys to a specific
device mode, the remote control will operate the volume of the
device associated with the locked mode, even when the locked
mode is not the current device mode. (This includes all device
modes except AUX 1 and AUX 2).
When the remote control is in AUX1 (or AUX 2) mode, the
remote control will operate the volume of the device associated
with the AUX 1 (or AUX 2) mode, even when the volume is
locked to another mode.
See “Using the remote control to operate your other devices”
on page 16.
Searching and sampling the code of a
device (8500)
If you do not know the device code for a particular device, you
can cycle the remote control through the available codes for
that device mode and sample the functions to find the code that
operates the target device. The keys available to be sampled,
provided they are applicable to that mode, are p, 1, z, <,
and S. Invalid keys will be ignored while in program mode.

This feature clears all programmed remote control features not
related to “Device code setup” and resets the volume lock to
the “TV” device mode.
Note: When a search cycle is completed, the device
button LED will blink three times. The remote control will
begin to cycle through the available codes again. If no key
is pressed within 10 seconds during programming, the
remote control will exit the program mode and return to the
previous code.

Note:
• You must configure the antenna input source before

• If the Antenna 1 input signal type is set to Cable, the
automatic channel programming process erases channels
that were previously programmed into the TV’s memory.
• If the Antenna 1 input signal type is set to Antenna, the
automatic channel programming process adds newly found
channels to the existing set of programmed channels. (and
does NOT erase channels that were previously
programmed into the TV’s memory.) To remove an antenna
source channel from the memory, you must manually delete
it.
• To tune the TV to a channel not programmed in the channel
memory, you must use the Channel Number buttons on the
remote control.
• Programming channels when the antenna 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.

oldest item will be removed from the list when a new
channel or input is tuned.
• If History List in the Channel Browser Setup is set to
“Power Off Clear (On)”, turning off the TV will clear the
channel History.

Note:
• A second audio program (SAP) can be heard only on those
TV stations that offer it. For example, a station might
broadcast another language as a second audio program. If
you have SAP on, you will see the current program on the
screen but hear the other language instead of the program’s
normal audio.
• If you have SAP on and the station you are watching is not
broadcasting a second audio program, the station’s normal
audio will be output. However, occasionally there is no
sound at all in SAP mode. If this happens, set the MTS
feature to Stereo mode.

Chapter 7: Using the THINC™ home network feature
The Toshiba Home Interactive Network Connection
(THINC™) feature allows you to connect the TV to your home
network, which will enable access to file sharing and
e-mail scheduling features.
• File sharing
You can access JPEG and MP3 files that are stored on your
networked home PC and view/play them on the TV.
For home network troubleshooting tips, see Chapter 8.
The unauthorized recording, use, distribution, or revision of
television programs, videotapes, DVDs, and other materials is
prohibited under the Copyright Laws of the United States and
other countries, and may subject you to civil and criminal
liability.
Note: Requires a home network* (- Installation Guide).
Does NOT require Internet/e-mail service.
B. Setting up the network address
• E-mail scheduling of recordings and reminders
You can schedule recordings and reminders by sending an
e-mail to the TV from any PC.
To set up the network address:
1
2
First, try automatically setting up the network address
(below).
Note:
• Requires a compatible recording device (- Installation
Guide); a home network* (- Installation Guide); and home
Internet service with a dedicated POP3 e-mail address for
the TV (different from your personal e-mail address).
If the automatic setup is not successful, you can either
retry the automatic setup (below) or try manually setting
up the network address (- page 60).
• Contact your Internet Service Provider (ISP) to obtain
and set up Internet/e-mail service.
Note:
• If you used an Ethernet crossover cable to connect your PC
directly to the TV, you will not be able to use the automatic
setup, and must manually set up the network address.
• You will NOT be able to access or browse the Internet
through the TV.
Follow the steps in sections A through D (- pages 59–63)
to set up and use the TV’s home network features.
• If you used a hub or switch to connect the TV to your home
network, you will not be able to use the automatic setup, and
must manually set up the network address.
• If you used a router with built-in DHCP functionality, use the
automatic setup. Manual setup may not work.

G. Using e-mail scheduling
will send a reply e-mail indicating whether the e-mailed
request succeeded or failed. See “Receiving an e-mail
from the TV” (- page 75).
You can use the e-mail scheduling feature to schedule and
delete recordings and reminders by sending a “request e-mail”
to the TV’s e-mail address from any PC.
The four commands the TV will accept are ADD, DELETE,
GET, and HELP, as described in this section.
If you have not already done so, follow the instructions in
sections A and B (- page 59), and in section F (- page 68),
before proceeding.
When a recording is scheduled via e-mail, the recording device
used will be the VCR connected to the TV's analog A/V OUT
terminals (see item 4 on page 9 for the location of the A/V
OUT terminals; see the separate Installation Guide for various
VCR connection examples).
Formatting a request e-mail
Recognized tags
When you send an ADD, DELETE, GET, or HELP request
e-mail to the TV, the TV will recognize only the tags listed
below. These tags (and their accompanying data) must be
listed in the body of the request e-mail in the following order:
• ID* Your ID (required only if you set the “ID Required”
field to On*)
• COMMAND ADD — or — DELETE — or — GET — or
— HELP
• INPUT ANT-1 — or — ANT-2 — or — CABLE BOX
• CHANNEL Channel number of the recording or reminder
• DATE Date of the recording or reminder
• START TIME Start time of the recording or reminder
• DURATION Length of time of the recording or reminder
• TYPE RECORD — or — REMIND
E-mail parameters
Note: Some e-mail clients automatically insert e-mail
signatures, which the TV will try to process. These may
generate unwanted error messages.
• The maximum allowable e-mail size is 16 KB. E-mails over
16 KB will be automatically deleted.
• E-mails sent to the TV cannot contain any attachments. The
TV will automatically delete any e-mail with an attached
file.
• E-mails can be formatted either Plain Text or Rich Text
Format (HTML style).
*
The ID is case sensitive. The ID tag is required only if you created
an ID in the “ID” field and set the “ID Required” field to On. If you
set the “ID Required” field to Off, you do not need to include the ID
tag line in your request e-mail. See “Description of fields in the
E-mail Scheduling Setup window” (- page 71).
Tag and data formats
The data for each tag can be formatted in various ways, as
described in the following table:
• E-mails sent to the TV that are not properly formatted,
are from the wrong e-mail address, or have the wrong ID
(if specified) will be deleted.

Chapter 8: Troubleshooting
Picture problems
General picture problems
General troubleshooting
• Check the antenna/cable connections (- Installation
Guide).
Before calling a service technician, please check this chapter
for a possible cause of the problem and some solutions you can
try.
• Press + on the remote control or TV and select a valid
video input source (- page 32). 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 the Installation Guide.
• Antenna reception may be poor. Use a highly directional
outdoor antenna (if applicable).
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 43).
• The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another
channel.
• Adjust the picture qualities (- page 42).
• If you are using a VCR, make sure L on the remote
control is set correctly (- page 13).
• If you have two VCRs connected to your TV, make sure
you have not connected the same VCR to the TV’s output
and input connections at the same time (- Installation
Guide).
• Do not connect both a standard video cable and an S-
video cable to the same set of VIDEO inputs (VIDEO 1,
or VIDEO 2) at the same time (- Installation Guide).
TV plays a recorded anouncement when LEDs are blinking
• When certain non-standard conditions occur, the LEDs
on the TV will blink and the TV will play a recorded
“voice announcement” describing the condition (see
“LED indications” on page 80 for details).
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.
Noisy picture
Other problems
• If you are watching an tuned analog channel (off-air
broadcast or Cable TV), you can set the CableClear®
feature to AUTO to reduce visible interference in the TV
picture (- page 54).
• If your TV’s problem is not addressed in this
Troubleshooting section or the recommended solution
has not worked, use the Reset Factory Defaults procedure
(- page 31).
Video Input Selection problems
TV will not turn on
• 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.
• Make sure the power cord is plugged in, and then press
p.
• The remote control batteries may be dead. Replace the
batteries or try the control panel buttons.
• If you have recently replaced the lamp unit, make sure the
lamp unit and lamp unit door are installed properly
(- pages 81–83).
• The lamp unit may need to be replaced (-pages 81–83).
Also see “LED indications” (- page 80).
• If the TV is powered off and then quickly on again when
the lamp unit is hot, it may take several minutes for the
picture to appear on-screen. This is a property of DLP TV
lamp technology and is NOT a sign of malfunction. For
details, see IMPORTANT NOTICE ABOUT “HOT
LAMP RESTART” (- page 3).
Cannot view external signals or channel 3 or 4
• If you cannot view signals from external devices
connected to VIDEO 1, VIDEO 2, or ColorStream®, or
from channels 3 or 4, make sure the Input Lock is set to
Off (- page 50).
Poor color or no color
• The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another
channel.
• Adjust the Tint and/or Color (- page 42).
• When the ColorStream® signal source is active, the
VIDEO OUT terminal does not output video. To receive
video from the VIDEO OUT terminal, a standard video
or S-video IN connection must be used instead of the
ColorStream® connections.
POP problems
• If you label all of the inputs as “Hide,” the POP feature
will be disabled. If you then attempt to access the POP
feature, the message “Not Available” will appear on-
screen (- page 40).

Chapter 8: Troubleshooting
Picture brightness changes soon after turning on TV
• If you set the lamp mode to Low Power, each time you
turn on the TV, the lamp will start out in High Bright
mode but will switch to Low Power mode after a short
period of time. You may notice a change in screen
brightness when this happens. This is normal and is not a
sign of malfunction (- page 55).
Remote control problems
• Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device
mode (- page 16).
• Remove all obstructions between the remote control and
the TV.
• The remote control batteries may be dead. Replace the
batteries (- page 11).
• 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 (- page 16).
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.
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:
• If the TV still does not act as expected, use the Reset
Factory Defaults procedure (- page 31).
Channel tuning problems
• Make sure the remote control is set to the correct device
mode (- page 16).
• The channel may have been erased from the channel
memory by the Channel Add/Delete feature. Add the
channel to the channel memory (- page 27).
• The channel may be blocked by the Channels Block
feature. Unblock the channel (- page 49).
– 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.
• If you are unable to tune digital channels, check the
antenna configuration (- page 25). If you are still
unable to tune digital channels, clear all channels from
the channel list (-page 27) and reprogram channels into
the channel memory (- page 26). If you are still unable
to tune digital channels, use the Reset Factory Defaults
procedure (- page 31). Also see “TV stops responding
to controls” and “Other problems” (- page 76).
Sound problems
• Check the antenna/cable connections (- Installation
Guide).
Closed caption problems
• The station may have broadcast difficulties. Try another
channel.
• The sound may be muted. Press z.
• If you hear no sound, try setting the MTS feature to
Stereo mode (- page 45).
• Make sure the Speakers function in the Audio Setup
menu is set correctly (- page 46).
• 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 45).
• If the program or video you selected is not closed-
captioned, no captions will display on-screen
(- page 43).
• If text is not available, a black rectangle may appear on-
screen. If this happens, turn off the closed caption feature
(- page 43).
• 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 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 45).
• When using an external audio amplifier, if you connect
the amplifier to the VAR. AUDIO OUT terminals, the
volume of the TV and amplifier must be set above 0 or
you will not hear any sound (- Installation Guide).
Rating blocking (V-Chip) problems
• If you forget your PIN code: While the PIN code entering
screen is displayed, press E four times within 5
seconds. The PIN code you previously stored will be
cleared (- page 47).
• The V-Chip feature is available for the U.S. V-Chip
system only (- page 48).

Some files in the shared folder are not played
Recording problems
• Only the first 200 MP3 files found will be played. Folders
nested 10 or more levels below the shared folder are not
searched.
• If you use the TV’s remote control to start recording, you
will not be able to change inputs (- page 32), open the
POP window (- page 40). If you attempt to do so, the
message “Not Available While Recording” will appear
on-screen.
• If you are recording a digital channel, you can only
change analog channels while recording is in progress. If
you are recording an analog channel, you can only
change digital channels while the recording is in
progress. This is because the TV tuner that is being
recorded (digital or analog) will be locked on the channel
that is currently recording.
• It is recommended that you use the TV’s remote control
to start recording. If you use a device other than the TV’s
remote control to start recording and then attempt to
access a feature that is normally denied during recording
(POP mode, changing inputs,) the recorded audio and/or
video may not be what you intended to record.
