connect and use various input and output devices.
Backlight Remote Control
The buttons on the Backlight Remote Control are lit up so that users can easily press buttons on the remote control
even when it is dark.
Black Level
Black Level sets the light level of the darkest portion of the video signal to match that of the display's black level
capability so that users can clearly view dark visuals. If the setting does not match the input signal, the dark screen is
saturated and may not display properly or the dark screen looks milky-white.

subscribe to your local cable broadcast service provider and install an additional receiver.
Color Standard
A pre-determined default color standard determined by the broadcasting standard of the corresponding country or

Color Temperature
Color temperature is a simplified way to characterize the spectral properties of a light source. A low color temperature
implies a warmer (more yellow/red) light while a high color temperature implies a colder (more blue) light.
COMPOSITE IN Port
A COMPOSITE IN Port is a general video input port (yellow). Both chrominance and luminance are transmitted on the

so that the video signal can be clearly displayed on a digital display device.
HDMI
▶ HDMI(High-Definition Multimedia Interface), is an interface that enables the transmission of digital audio and video
signals using a single cable.
