EnglishConnect the LCD Monitor to a Stereo Amplifier
•Turn on the LCD monitor and the amplifier only after all connections have been made.
•Use a stereo Mini-RCA cable to connect the AUDIO OUT connector (Stereo Mini Jack) on the LCD monitor and the audio
input on the amplifier.
•Do not reverse the audio left and right jacks.
•The AUDIO IN is used for audio input.
•The AUDIO OUT jack outputs sound from the selected Audio input.
Connecting to a Stereo Amplifier*
You can connect your stereo amplifier to your LCD monitor. Refer to your amplifier owner’s manual for more information.

Precautions when connecting the antenna
•Use a coaxial cable which is free from
interference. Avoid using a parallel flat wire as
interference may occur, causing the reception
to become unstable and noise to appear on the
screen.
•Avoid using an indoor antenna as this may be
affected by interference and poor reception.
•Cable distribution system should be grounded
(earthed) in accordance with ANSI/NFPA 70,
the National Electrical Code (NEC), in
particular Section 820.93, Grounding of Outer
Conductive Shield of a Coaxial Cable.
•Keep the power cord as far away from the
antenna wire as possible.
•Auto Tuning. Please refer to page 29.
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 the screws of the VHF or UHF adapter.
Plug the 300-ohm to 75-ohm adapter into the antenna on the LCD MONITOR.
•When both VHF and UHF antennas are combined: Attach an optional antenna cable signal combiner to the LCD
MONITOR antenna terminal, and connect the cables to the antenna mixer. Consult your local electronics retailer about
available signal combiners.
Reconnect the unit to the power source and turn on the power
•Using the Remote Control or User Controls, select the “TV TUNER”. Select the appropriate menu based upon which
source (cable or antenna) is being used.
•Refer to page 29 for further information on the “TV TUNER” as well as for information on how to use the “CHANNEL
SEARCH” function to program available channels.
CAUTION:The screen of the coaxial cable is intended to be connectd to earth in the building installation.

Using Power Management
The LCD monitor follows the VESA approved DPM Power
Management function.
The power management function is an energy saving
function that automatically reduces the power consumption
of the display when the keyboard or the mouse has not been
used for a fixed period.
The power management feature on your new display has
been set to the “ON” mode. This allows your display to enter
a Power Saving Mode when no signal is applied. This could
potentially increase the life and decrease the power
consumption of the display.
STANDBY mode is used when the display is connected to
an RS-232C cable or when using the INPUT DETECT
function.
ECO STANDBY uses less power, put the RS-232C and
INPUT DETECT functions are not available.
Selecting a video source
To view a video source:
Use the input button to set [VIDEO].
Use the COLOR SYSTEM menu to set [AUTO], [NTSC],
[PAL], [SECAM], [PAL60], [4.43NTSC], according to your
video format.
