Aspect Ratio—The ratio of the width to the height of a TV screen independent of the screen size (x units wide by x units high). Analog is 4:3; Digital can be 4:3 or 16:9 (also called wide screen). ATSC—Advanced Television Systems Committee AV Jacks—Audio Video Jacks Bandwidth—The range of frequencies assigned to a broadcast channel. A TV channel is 6 MHz wide. Component Jacks (Y Pb Pr)—Green, Blue, and Red video jacks that accept 480i, 480p, 720p, and 1080i signals. By separating the Green (Y), Blue (Pb), and Red (Pr) video signal components, clearer, more-defined images that exceed the performance of S-Video and Composite video jacks are achieved. Composite Jacks—White, Red, and Yellow AV jacks. The White and Red jacks carry the Left and Right audio signals while the Yellow jack carries the composite video signal. Dolby® Digital (Formally known as Dolby AC-3)—A 5.1 channel (Front L/R, Rear L/R, Center, and Bass) surround sound audio standard for digital television. Downconverting—The removal of pixels. Frame rate and/or scan- ning format may also change. Broadcasters may use this process to make room in their bandwidth for additional services, such as, sub-channels. DTV (Digital Television)—Comprises four elements, HDTV, EDTV, SDTV, and Multicasting. DVI—Digital Visual Interface. A pure digital video interface that can pass standard-definition and high-definition video signals. It supports the HDCP copy protection standard, allowing transmission of copy-protected digital content. EDTV—Enhanced-Definition TV (480p) HDMI—High-Definition Multimedia Interface. An all digital audio/video interface that accepts uncompressed video signals for the very best picture possible. It supports the HDCP copy protection standard, allowing transmission of copy-protected digital content. The signal can also include Dolby® Digital or PCM audio, when available. HDTV—High-Definition TV (720p, 1080i, & 1080p) Input / Output Jacks—Used to receive (input) and send (output) signals from one device to another. Such as, from a DVD player (Output) to the TV (Input). Interlaced Scanning—The process of scanning two fields of video then combining (interlacing) them to make one frame of video (or one complete image). Letter Box—This term is used to describe a 16:9 ratio image being displayed on a 4:3 ratio display device. Black bands appear at the top and bottom of the screen. MPEG2—A compression scheme for moving images and audio. It was developed by the Motion Picture Experts Group. This makes HDTV and multicasting possible. Multicasting—The dividing of a station’s broadcast signal into sub- channels of programming or data services. The resolution of the main channel must be reduced to make room for sub-channels. NTSC—National Television Systems Committee Pillar Boxing—This term is used to describe a 4:3 ratio image being displayed on a 16:9 ratio display device. Black bars (or pillars) appear at the sides of the screen. Pixel—Picture Element Progressive Scanning—The process of scanning lines sequentially. One scan produces one frame of video (or one complete image). Set-Top Box (STB)—A device that receives and converts signals for display on a television screen (can be digital or analog). Many digital STBs have cable and over-the-air tuners. SDTV—Standard-Definition TV (480i) Signal—The picture, sound, and data transmitted or received through the air to an antenna, over a Cable TV system, from a Satel- lite to a dish and receiver, or between external components of an Audio/Video system. Simulcast—Simultaneously broadcasting the same program on two or more channels. This is required by the FCC during the transition from analog to digital. Simulcasting is scheduled to end and only digital broadcasts will continue after February 17, 2009. S-Video Jack—A round 4-pin jack that accepts separated luminance and chroma signals from a DVD player, Super VHS VCR, or similar analog device. The resolution of this input exceeds that of a com- posite video input (yellow connector), but is lesser than the resolution of component inputs (Y Pb Pr). Terrestrial—An over-the-air broadcast to an antenna. Upconverting—A process of converting original analog program- ming to digital for DTV broadcasting. Pixels may be duplicated and inserted between existing pixels to simulate HDTV. This does not increase the resolution. The resolution of an image is set during the recording process. It cannot be increased through conversion processes. Wide Screen—Used to describe a 16:9 or greater aspect ratio. 16:9 is the standard aspect ratio for HDTV digital displays. Movies screens are often slightly wider. 47 1. What channel do I put my television on to watch a DVD player? To determine where the DVD player is connected, turn the DVD player and TV on and set the TV on channel 3. Then press the INPUT key on the remote control to scroll through the signal inputs to locate the DVD player startup screen. 2. I am not receiving all of my VHF and UHF channels or cable channels? Make sure an antenna or your cable service is connected to the “ANT” Terminal. If there is a VCR connected, make sure it is turned off. Press the RESET key on the remote two times to begin an automatic channel search. 3. How do you turn the caption on and off? To turn captioning on or off, press and release the CAPTION key on the remote until the desired caption mode appears (CC1 and Digital CC1 are used most commonly). 4. I’m connected to a satellite system. How do I get my television to go to channel 73? Turn on the satellite receiver then press the RESET key on the remote twice to begin a channel search. If after the search no satellite channels appear. Tune the TV to channel 3. Press the MENU key on the remote and select “Analog Antenna Signal.” Use the CURSOR keys to select CABLE. Press the EXIT key, then press in channel 73. 5. How do I get a full picture on the screen? If you are connected to a Cable box or Satellite receiver, bring up the box menus and select 4:3 as the screen aspect ratio. Then press the PIX SHAPE key on the television remote control for the desired screen shape. 6. Is my remote universal? No, this remote control is designed to operate a Sanyo television only. 7. When I do a channel search some of my digital channels disappear. What is wrong? Many digital stations are not on-the-air 24 hours a day. After doing the initial channel search, always use the menu system to perform a “Digital Add-on Search” to add new digital chan- nels, so that stations not on-the-air during the search will not be erased. 8. There is no picture, sound is ok? Check appropriate video connection to make sure it corre- sponds to the audio connection being used. If the sound is associated with component jacks on a DVD player, it may be necessary to access the DVD menu to select the component outputs or S-Video output. 9. There is no sound, picture is clear? If you are connecting your television through the Composite jacks (Video1), S-Video jack (Video1), or Component jacks (Video2 or Video3) the matching audio jacks must also be connected. 10. The picture is not as clear as it should be. Am I using the best quality connection? Picture quality is classified as follows: Analog RF signal (off-air or cable) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Basic Video1 (Composite – yellow) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . Good Video1 (S-Video). . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

No registration is necessary, just hold on to your sales receipt. We will warranty the television from the date on the receipt. 12. Where is the code for a Sanyo television to program into my universal remote? You must obtain the code from the manufacturer of the remote control you want to program. Refer to the remote’s owner’s manual. 13. When I adjust the volume on the television why does the volume level on the surround sound system remain steady? The audio output jacks are set to a fixed level and do not vary with the television volume. The volume control on the surround sound system must be used. 14. My digital channel number doesn’t match the station number. On some digital channels the channel number displayed on the television will be different than the channel ID number. This is determined by the digital package broadcasted from the local station through the digital signal. 15. What is the recommended method for cleaning the cabinet and screen? Clean the cabinet with a soft-dry cloth. Clean the screen using a damp-soft-cotton cloth.
