A GUIDETO DIGITALTV  
What is DigitalTelevision (DTV)?  
DigitalTelevision (DTV) is a relatively new type of broadcasting that promises to transform television viewing into a whole  
new experience. Digital technology is used to capture images and sound to deliver a better picture quality.  
There are many levels of digital television quality. The most common are:  
Standard DefinitionTV (SDTV)  
SDTV is the basic level of quality display and resolution for both analog and digital. Transmission of SDTV can be in the  
traditional (4:3) or widescreen (16:9) format.  
Enhanced DefinitionTV (EDTV)  
EDTV is better in picture quality than analog television. The formats for EDTV are 480p widescreen (16:9) or traditional  
(4:3). EDTV is in the middle range quality between SDTV and HDTV.  
High DefinitionTV (HDTV)  
HDTV has the highest quality for digital broadcast formats. Its resolution is widescreen format (16:9). Combined with  
digitally enhanced sound technology,HDTV sets new standards for sound and picture quality in television.  
Difference between Digital and Analog?  
Digital Television is a more flexible and efficient technology than the analog broadcast system. Analog broadcasts can only  
provide one program at a time. Digital television can broadcast a high definition program or more than one standard definition  
program at the same time. With Digital television you can receive information of programs through the Information Banner.  
This information is provided by the broadcaster.  
QUICKTIPS BEFOREYOU START

that are broadcasted locally.

3
Auto installation may take 20 to 40 minutes depending on the number of channels that are transmitted by the cable provider  
or broadcaster.  
When theTV is not receiving any signal from the antenna / cable, NO SIGNAL will appear on the TV screen. This can be  
caused by the antenna /cable not being plugged in correctly or when the wrong tuner mode is selected.  
When no transmission is received from the broadcaster, NO PROGRAM will appear on the TV screen.  
, ,  
When in Digital Mode an audio only (without video picture) signal is received from the broadcaster, AUDIO ONLY will  
,,  
appear on the TV screen.

You will not be able to receive pay channels when using direct antenna/ cable connection to the television.  
When the set-top box is connected to the television using coaxial cable, it is necessary to auto-program the television for  
the signal channel (3 or 4) that the set-top box outputs and change the channels at the set-top box to view the program.

GLOSSARY  
Aspect Ratio  
The ratio between the width and height of theTV picture on the screen. In a normalTV set the aspect ratio is 4  
to 3 (4:3). The aspect ratio in HDTV is 16:9, which resembles the aspect ratio in a movie theatre (Widescreen).  
NewTV systems support both 4:3 and 16:9 aspect ratio and can automatically switch between them.  
AudioVideo(A/V)  
A term often used when discussing a channel on aTV receiver or on video equipment, which has been  
especially designed to acceptVCR audio-video signal. The A/V channel automatically activates special circuitry  
within theTV set to prevent picture distortion and skewing. It is also used for audio-video processors, which  
handle both types of signal.  
ATSC  
ATSC: AdvanceTelevision Systems Committee. Formed to establish technical standards for advanced  
television systems, including digital high definition television (HDTV).  
CVBS  
CompositeVideo Baseband Signal. In broadcast television this refers to the video signal.  
including the colour information and syncs.  
DTV  
Digital television. Generic term that refers to all digital television formats, including high-definition television  
(HDTV) and standard-definition television (SDTV).  
DigitalTuner  
A digital tuner serves as the decoder required to receive and display digital broadcasts. It can be included insideTV sets or  
via a set-top box.  
,
HDTV  
NTSC  
The generally agreed upon definition of HDTV is approximately twice the vertical and horizontal picture resolution of today s  
NTSCTV, which essentially makes the picture twice as sharp.HDTV also has a screen ratio of 16:9. HDTV offers reduced  
motion artifacts (i.e. ghosting, dot crawl), and offers 5.1 independent channels of CD-quality stereo surround sound,(also  
referred to as AC-3).  
NationalTelevision System Committee. The organization that developed the analog television standard currently in use in the  
U.S., Canada, and Japan. Now generally used to refer to that standard. The NTSC standard combines blue, red and green  
signals modulated as an AM signal with an FM signal for audio.  
Progressive Scan  
Resolution  
In Progressive Scanning all the horizontal scan lines are scanned on to the screen at one time. The DigitalTV and HDTV  
standards accept both Interlaced Scan and Progressive Scan broadcast and display methods.  
Resolution: A measurement of the finest (smallest) detail that is visible in a video image. TV resolutions may be expressed as  
number of pixels in an image, or more commonly asTotal Number of (horizontally scanned) Lines used to create the image.  
Standard DigitalTV Resolutions:  
SDTV: 480i -The picture is 704x480 pixels, 480p -The picture is 704x480 pixels.  
HDTV: 720p -The picture is 1280x720 pixels, 1080i -The picture is 1920x1080 pixels, 1080p -The picture is 1920x1080 pixels.

CLEANING AND CARE  
WARNING Concerning stationary images on theTV Screen:  
Placement of the TV  
To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and  
increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV where  
temperatures can become excessively hot,for example, in  
direct sunlight or near a heating appliance.  
Do not leave stationary or letterbox images on screen for  
extended periods of time. This can cause uneven picture-tube  
aging.  
Normal use of the TV should involve the showing of pictures  
that contain constantly moving and changing images that fill the  
screen. Be careful not to leave nonmoving images on screen  
for extended periods of time, or to display the same images  
on screen too frequently, because subtle ghostimages can be  
left on the screen. Sources of stationary images may be DVD  
disks, laser disks, video games, cd-i disks, videotapes, digital  
television boxes, broadcast channels, cable channels, satellite  
channels, and others. Here are some examples of stationary  
images (this is not an all-inclusive list; you may encounter  
others in your viewing):  
Be sure to allow a free flow of air to and from the perfo-  
rated back cover of the set.  
Cleaning  
To avoid possible shock hazard, unplug theTV from the  
Electrical outlet before cleaning.  
Regularly dust theTV with a dry,nonscratching duster to  
keep the TV clean.  
When cleaning theTV, take care not to scratch or damage  
the screen surface. Avoid using anything abrasive. Do not  
use household cleaners. Wipe the front screen with a  
clean cloth dampened with water. Use even,easy, vertical  
strokes when cleaning.

mild soap or detergent. Use a clean, dry cloth to dry the  
wiped surfaces.  
Video-game images and scoreboards.  
Television station logos
