Connecting your TV

Connecting a computer

To connect a PC to the RGB/PC terminal on the TV:

An analog RGB (15 pin) computer cable can be connected.

Connect a PC cable from the computer to the o

RGB/PC

terminal on the back of the TV.

The following signals can be displayed:

• VGA: VESA 640 5 480 @ 60/75 Hz
• SVGA: VESA 800 5 600 @ 60/75 Hz
• XGA: VESA 1024 5 768 @ 60/70/75 Hz
• W-XGA: VESA 1280 5 768 @ 60/75 Hz
• W-XGA: VESA 1360 5 768 @ 60 Hz
• S-XGA: VESA 1280 5 1024 @ 60/75 Hz
However, these signal formats are converted to match the
number of pixels of the LCD panel.

Therefore, the TV may not display small text properly.

Notes:
• Some PC models cannot be connected to this TV.
• Certain PC signal formats may not be detected correctly.
• There is no need to use an adapter for computers with DOS/

V compatible mini D-sub 15 pin terminal.

• A bar may appear at the edges of the screen, or parts of the

picture may be obscured depending on some signals. This
is not the malfunction.

• If the edges of the picture are stretched, readjust the picture

position adjustments in the PC Setting menu.

• Depending on the specification of the PC you are playing

the DVD-Video on, and the DVD’s title, some scenes may be
skipped, or you may not be able to pause during multi-angle
scenes.

Signal names for mini D-sub 15 pin connector

To connect a PC to the HDMI terminal on the TV:

When connecting a PC to the HDMI terminal on the TV, use
an HDMI-to DVI adapter cable and analog audio cables.

If connecting a PC with an HDMI terminal, use an HDMI cable

(type A connector). Separate analog cables are not necessary.

The HDMI input can accept and display VGA, 480i, 480p,
576i, 576p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p signal formats.

Notes:
• The edges of the images may be hidden.
• If receiving a 720p, 1080i, or 1080p signal program, PC

mode scales the video to display the entire picture within the
borders of the screen (e.g. no overscanning) (
