PREVENTION OF SCREEN BURN This Wide Screen TV is designed to display wide screen pictures. Images should be viewed mostly in wide screen format or zoomed to fill the screen with moving pictures. Use of side panels, top and bottom panels of standard picture formats should only be 15% of your total viewing time to prevent uneven aging of the phosphors. Phosphors in the lighted area of the picture will age more rapidly than the gray areas. Continuous on-screen displays such as video games, stock market quotations, computer generated graphics, and other fixed (non-moving) patterns can cause permanent damage to television receivers. Such “SCREEN BURNS” constitute misuse and are NOT COVERED by your HITACHI Factory Warranty.
PUBLIC VIEWING OF COPYRIGHTED MATERIAL Public viewing of programs broadcast by TV stations and cable companies, as well as programs from other sources, may require prior authorization from the broadcaster or owner of the video program material.

HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW HITACHI PROJECTION TV
ANTENNA Unless your TV is connected to a cable TV system or to a centralized antenna system, a good outdoor TV antenna is recommended for best performance. However, if you are located in an exceptionally good signal area that is free from interference and multiple image ghosts, an indoor antenna may be sufficient. LOCATION Select an area where sunlight or bright indoor illumination will not fall directly on the picture screen. Also, be sure that the location selected allows a free flow of air to and from the perforated back cover of the set. 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, etc. VIEWING The major benefit of the HITACHI Projection Television is its large viewing screen. To see this large screen at its best, test various locations in the room to find the optimum spot for viewing. The best picture is seen by sitting directly in front of the TV and about 10 to 18 feet from the screen. Picture brightness decreases as the viewer moves to the left and right of the receiver. During daylight hours, reflections from outside light may appear on the screen. If so, drapes or screens can be used to reduce the reflection or the TV can be located in a different section of the room. If the TV’s audio output will be connected to a Hi-Fi system’s external speakers, the best audio performance will be obtained by placing the speakers equidistant from each side of the receiver cabinet and as close as possible to the height of the picture screen center. For best stereo separation, place the external speakers at least four feet from the side of the TV, place the surround speakers to the side or behind the viewing area. Differences in room sizes and acoustical environments will require some experimentation with speaker placement for best performance.
CAUTION: Magnetic fields, such as those of external speakers, may cause the picture to distort if they are placed too close to the television. Move the magnetic field source away from the television until there is no picture distortion.

HOOK-UP CABLES AND CONNECTORS
Most video/audio connections between components can be made with shielded video and audio cables that have phono connectors. For best performance, video cables should use 75-Ohm coaxial shielded wire. Cables can be purchased from most stores that sell audio/video products. Below are illustrations and names of common connectors. Before purchasing any cables, be sure of the output and input connector types required by the various components and the length of each cable.

300-Ohm Twin Lead Connector This outdoor antenna cable must be connected to an antenna adapter (300-Ohm to 75-Ohm).
Phono Connector Used on all standard video and audio cables which connect to inputs and outputs located on the television’s rear jack panel and front control panel.

“F” Type 75-Ohm Coaxial Antenna Connector For connecting RF signals (antenna or cable TV) to the antenna jack on the television.
S-Video (Super Video) Connector This connector is used on camcorders, VCRs and laserdisc players with an S-Video feature in place of the standard video cable to produce a high quality picture.

IR Mouse Cable (Provided) Connect the IR Mouse Cable to the IR BLASTER output of your TV when using the A/V Network feature. You must place the IR mouse transmitter in front of the IR sensor of your external components. This connection allows your TV to control your external components without using your external component’s remote control.

Digital Visual Interface (DVI) Connection Cable This cable is used to connect external devices with DVIHDTV output capability.

ANTENNA CONNECTIONS TO REAR JACK PANEL
VHF (75-Ohm) antenna/CATV (Cable TV) When using a 75-Ohm coaxial cable system, connect the outdoor antenna or CATV coaxial cable to the ANT A (75-Ohm) terminal. If you have a second antenna or cable TV system, connect the coaxial cable to the ANT B terminal.
VHF (300-Ohm) antenna/UHF antenna When using a 300-Ohm twin lead from an outdoor antenna, connect the VHF or UHF antenna leads to screws of the VHF or UHF adapter. Plug the adapter into the antenna terminal on the TV.

To outdoor antenna or CATV cable
To second antenna or cable system To outdoor VHF or UHF antenna

When both VHF and UHF antennas are connected Attach an optional antenna cable mixer to the TV antenna terminal, and connect the cables to the antenna mixer. Consult your dealer or service store for the antenna mixer.

CONNECTING EXTERNAL VIDEO SOURCES

The exact arrangement you use to connect the VCR, camcorder, laserdisc player, DVD player, or HDTV Set Top Box to your TV set is dependent on the model and features of each component. Check the owner’s manual of each component for the location of video and audio inputs and outputs.

The following connection diagrams are offered as suggestions. However, you may need to modify them to accommodate your particular assortment of components and features. For best performance, video and audio cables should be made from coaxial shielded wire.

Before Operating External Video Source The input mode is changed every time the VID1~VID5 button is pressed as shown below. Connect an external source to the INPUT terminal, then press the VID1~VID5 button as necessary to view the input source (see page 33).

NOTES:

1. Completely insert the connection cord plugs when connecting to rear panel jacks. The picture and sound that is played back will be abnormal if the connection is loose.
2. The DVI-HDTV input on INPUT 1 or INPUT 2 (Models: 57/65X500) contains the copy protection system called Highbandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP). HDCP is a cryptographic system that encrypts video signals when using DVI connections to prevent illegal copying of video contents.
3. DVI is not a “NETWORK” technology. It establishes a one-way point-to-point connection for delivery of uncompressed video to a display.
4. The connected digital output device controls the DVI interface so proper set-up of device user settings determines final video appearance.

CONNECTING AV NETWORK
Your Hitachi Television is equipped with an AV Network feature. This feature helps to control your external Audio/Video equipment (VCR, Set Top Box, DVD, etc.). Once this is setup, it allows your IR Mouse connector to control your equipment using your Hitachi TV Remote Control. You can use your Hitachi remote control to control the Audio/Video equipment command without the equipment’s remote control.
The Television rear panel has 2 IR BLASTER jacks. Each IR Mouse cable can connect up to 2 external Audio/Video components. Therefore, you can connect the Television with up to four components. Please see the following example of an AV Network setup between your Hitachi Television and external Audio/Video equipment (VCR and DVD Player).
CONNECTING EXTERNAL AUDIO/VIDEO COMPONENTS TO IR BLASTER FOR AV NETWORK 1. Connect your external Audio/Video components to the Rear Panel jacks as shown on pages 15~19.
2. Connect the IR Mouse cable to the IR BLASTER input of the Television’s rear panel.
3. Place the IR mouse in front of the infrared sensor of the external components you wish to control.

AV NET LEARNING WIZARD This function of the AV NET makes it more expandable because it allows the user to use equipment that is not supported by the pre- code library, listed on page 22. For example, after programming your equipment to the AV NET and the soft keys do not work, the user just has to follow the steps below. The AV NET Learning Wizard will transfer any remote button IR code of your equipment to the soft keys of your AV NET. If all remote button transfers are successful, the user can now control their equipment by using the TV remote control.

ASPECT button
Press this button to quickly change the picture format ASPECT ratio.

Depending on the input signal, the picture format ratio allows you to adjust the images through the following options.

4:3 Standard

Use this aspect mode to display conventional (4:3) images. Side panels (gray areas) are placed to the left and right of the image to preserve the original aspect ratio of the source. Note: Use this mode for only 15% of your total viewing time to prevent uneven aging of the phosphors. Phosphors in the lighted area of the picture will age more rapidly than the black areas.

4:3 Expanded

use this aspect mode to display conventional (4:3) sources by expanding the outer edges of the image to fill the 16:9 screen. The center of the image remains unaltered.

4:3 Zoom1/Zoom2

Use these aspect modes to zoom in on conventional (4:3) sources.

16:9 Standard

Use this aspect mode to display 16:9 sources like HDTV and DVD’s preserving the original 16:9 aspect ratio.

HOW TO USE THE REMOTE TO CONTROL YOUR TV

VIRTUAL HD button
Press this button to toggle between 1080i and 540p.
540p and 1080i represent two ways to display the TV signal.
· Progressive: The “p” in 540p tells you that the display is showing you the picture in the progressive format. With the progressive format the complete picture is created by drawing lines across the screen from left to right which fill the screen from the top to the bottom. If you look very closely at the screen there will be a very small space between each line. The progressive format is good for displaying fast moving programs such as a sporting event.
· Interlaced: The “i” in 1080i tells you that the display is showing you the picture in the interlaced format. With the interlaced format the picture is created by drawing lines across the screen from left to right which fill the screen from top to bottom, and then returning to the top and drawing another set of lines in between the first set. The TV draws the lines so fast that our eyes can’t see them. If you look very closely at the screen you will notice a smoother image than with the progressive format. The interlaced format is good for displaying detailed images like feature films.
· You can compare the progressive and interlaced formats by toggling the “VIRTUAL HD” button on the remote control. Some people like the crisp picture from 540p and some people like the smooth and detailed 1080i. Hitachi offers you the choice.
NOTE: The VIRTUAL HD button will not change the picture with a 1080i HDTV input. HDTV signals bypass the VIRTUAL HD circuitry and are shown in their native 1080i format.
MENU button
The MENU button will start the On-Screen Display.
EXIT button
When in MENU mode, this button will exit all On-Screen Displays.
THUMB STICK/SELECT button
All the On-Screen Display features can be set or adjusted by using the THUMB STICK, except for numeric entries. The THUMB STICK will highlight functions or adjust and set different features. Press the THUMB STICK toward desired direction and press down to SELECT.

THE REMOTE CONTROL

PICTURE-IN-PICTURE (PIP)

Your HITACHI Projection TV incorporates Dual Tuner technology designed for improved viewing enjoyment. This Dual Tuner feature allows you to view antenna inputs on both the main picture and sub-picture simultaneously, with separate tuning control for each. The Dual Tuner can operate with only one input (ANT A only) or two inputs (ANT A and ANT B).

ANT A input can be viewed as both the main picture and the sub-picture simultaneously. ANT B can only be viewed as a main picture. To select between main picture and PIP sub-picture tuning, press the SWAP button on the remote. The green highlighted channel display will move with every press of the SWAP button. When the top channel display is highlighted, channel tuning is for the main picture. When the lower channel display is highlighted, channel tuning is for the PIP sub-picture.
The Picture-in-Picture feature is convenient when you want to watch more than one program at the same time. You can watch a TV program while viewing other programs from the ANT A source or any of the video inputs.
