Speaker Select
If you are listening to the sound track of a broadcast or movie through an external receiver, you may hear a sound
echo caused by the difference in decoding speed between the products speakers and the speakers attached to your
audio receiver. If this occurs, set the product to External.
•External / Internal
―When you set Speaker Select to External, the products speakers are turned off.
You will hear sound through the external speakers only. When the Speaker Select is set to Internal, both the
product speakers and the external speakers are on. You will hear sound through both.
―If there is no video signal, both the products speakers and the external speakers will be mute.
Auto Volume
The volume can vary depending on the channel.
Automatically equalise the volume level when switching to another channel.
•Off / Normal / Night
Normal equalizes the volume level on each channel, so that when you change channels, the volume level is the
same.
Night equalizes and decrease the volume level on each channel, so each channel is quieter. Night is useful at night,
when you may want to keep the volume low.
―To use the volume control of a connected source device, set Auto Volume to Off. A change to the volume control
of the connected source device may not be applied if Auto Volume is set to Normal or Night.

Optimum Picture Quality and Afterimage
Burn-in Prevention
Optimum Picture Quality
•Due to the nature of the manufacturing of this product, approximately 1 pixel per million
(1ppm) may be brighter or darker on the panel. This does not affect product performance.
– The number of sub-pixels by panel type: 6,220,800
•Leaving the screen fixed on a stationary image for an extended period of time may cause
afterimage burn-in or defective pixels.
– Activate power-saving mode or a dynamic screen saver if you will not be using the
product for an extended period of time.
Prevention of Afterimage Burn-in
What is afterimage burn-in?
Afterimage burn-in should not occur when the LCD panel is operating normally. Normal
operation refers to a continuously changing video pattern. If the LCD panel displays a fixed
pattern for an extended period of time (more than 12 hours), a slight voltage difference may
occur between the electrodes in pixels that control the liquid crystals.
Such a voltage difference between electrodes increases with time and makes the liquid crystals
thinner. When this occurs, a previous image can remain on the screen when the pattern changes.
To prevent this, the accumulated voltage difference should be reduced.
―Afterimage burn-in should not occur when an LCD panel is operating in proper conditions.

Terminology
480i / 480p / 720p / 1080i /
1080p____ Each of the scanning
rates above refers to the number of
effective scanning lines that decides
the screen resolution. The scanning
rate may be indicated in i (interlaced)
or p (progressive), depending on the
scanning method.
- Scanning
Scanning refers to a process of
sending pixels that form an image
progressively. A larger number of
pixels will deliver a clearer and more
vivid picture.
- Progressive
In progressive scan mode, all lines
of pixels are scanned one by one
(progressively) on the screen.
- Interlaced
In interlaced scan mode, every
other line of pixels is scanned from
top to bottom first and then the
remaining lines of pixels (that were
not scanned) are scanned.
Non-interlace Mode and Interlace
Mode____ Non-interlace mode
(progressive scan) displays a
horizontal line from the top to the
bottom of a screen progressively.
Interlace mode displays the odd
number lines first and the even
number lines next. Non-interlace
mode is mainly used in monitors
as it produces screen clarity and
interlace mode is mainly used in
TVs.
Dot Pitch____ The product and
screen consist of red, green and
blue dots. A shorter distance
between the dots produces a higher
resolution. Dot pitch refers to the
distance between the shortest
distance between dots of the same
colour. Dot pitch is measured in
millimeters.
Vertical Frequency____ The product
displays a single image many times
per second (like a fluorescent light
that flickers) to display an image for
a viewer to see. The rate of a single
image being displayed repeatedly
per second is called vertical
frequency or refresh rate. Vertical
frequency is measured in Hz.
E.g. 60Hz refers to a single image
being displayed 60 times in one
second.
Horizontal Frequency____ The
time required to scan a single line
from the left to the right side of
the screen is called a horizontal
cycle. The reciprocal number of a
horizontal cycle is called horizontal
frequency. Horizontal frequency is
measured in kHz.
Source____ Input source refers to
a video source device connected to
the product such as a camcorder or
video or DVD player.
Plug & Play____ Plug & Play is a
function that allows the automatic
exchange of information between
a monitor and PC to produce an
optimum display environment.
The product uses VESA DDC
(international standard) to execute
Plug & Play.
Resolution____ Resolution is the
number of horizontal dots (pixels)
and vertical dots (pixels) that
form a screen. It represents the
level of display detail. A higher
resolution enables more data to
be displayed on the screen and is
useful to perform multiple tasks
simultaneously.
E.g. A resolution of 1920 X 1080
consists of 1,920 horizontal pixels
(horizontal resolution) and 1,080
vertical pixels (vertical resolution).
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia
Interface)____ It is an interface that
can be connected to a digital audio
source as well as a high-definition
video source by using a single cable
without compression.
Multiple Display Control (MDC)____
MDC (Multiple Display Control) is
an application that allows multiple
display devices to be controlled
simultaneously using a PC.
Communication between a PC and
monitor takes place using RS232C
(serial data transmission) and RJ45
(LAN) cables.
