Connecting with External Devices
You can enjoy picture and sound by connecting a VCR or a home video game system to the terminals located on the rear of
the LCD TV set.
When connecting an external device, turn off the power of the LCD TV set first to prevent any possible damage.
A
• For the cable, use a commercially available audio/video cable.
• PC connection is not possible.
• For more information about external device connections, see the operation manuals of your external devices.
• Make sure that the corresponding cables are connected to each terminal. Connecting other cables may result in a malfunction.
• INPUT2 has two video input terminals, VIDEO and S-VIDEO terminals. If your external device has an S-VIDEO terminal, S-VIDEO
connection is recommended. S-VIDEO provides a finer, more detailed picture. If both terminals are connected, S-VIDEO terminal takes a
priority.
• For the INPUT1 mode, picture can be displayed only when 480I, 480P, 576I, 576P, 720P or 1080I signal is received.
Outputting Video and Audio (Video Output)
You can output video and audio signals from the LCD TV set through the INPUT3/OUTPUT terminals. (See page 25.)
• When using INPUT3/OUTPUT as an output terminal, select “SETUP” in the Menu and set “INPUT3 SELECT” to “OUT”.

• When using the S-VIDEO input for INPUT2 or COMPONENT input for INPUT1, no video signal will be made to the INPUT3/OUTPUT
terminal, but audio signal will be made for connection to external audio systems.
