Terms Sync Signal Sync (Synchronized) Signals refer to the standard signals that are required to display desired colors on the monitor. They are divided into Vertical and Horizontal Sync Signals. These signals display normal color images by the set resolution and frequency. Types of Sync Signals Separate This is a scheme of transmitting individual vertical and horizontal sync signals to the monitor. Composite This is a scheme of combining vertical and horizontal sync signals into one composite signal and transmitting it to the monitor. The monitor displays the color signals by separating the composite signal into original color signals. Dot Pitch The image on a monitor is composed of red, green and blue dots. The closer the dots, the higher the resolution. The distance between two dots of the same color is called the Dot Pitch. Unit: mm Vertical Frequency The screen must be redrawn several times per second in order to create and display an image for the user. The frequency of this repetition per second is called the Vertical Frequency or Refresh Rate. Unit: Hz Example: If the same light repeats itself 60 ti mes per second, this is regarded as 60 Hz. Horizontal Frequency The time to scan one line connecting the right edge to the left edge of the screen horizontally is called the Horizontal Cycle. The inverse number of the Horizontal Cycle is called Horizontal Frequency. Unit: kHz Interlace and Non-Interlace Methods Showing the horizontal lines of the screen from the top to the bottom sequentially is called the Non- Interlace method while showing odd lines and then ev en lines in turn is called the Interlace method. The Non-Interlace method is used for the majority of monitors to ensure a clear image. The Interlace method is the same as that used in TVs. Plug & Play This is a function that provides the best quality screen for the user by allowing the computer and the monitor to exchange information automatically. Th is monitor follows the international standard VESA DDC for the Plug & Play function. Resolution The number of horizontal and vertical dots used to compose the screen image is called the resolution. This number shows the accuracy of the display. A hi gh resolution is good for performing multiple tasks as more image information can be shown on the screen. Example: If the resolution is 1440 x 900, this means the screen is composed of 1440 horizontal dots (horizontal resolution) and 900 vertical lines (vertical resolution). RF CableA round signal cable generally used for TV antennas. Satellite BroadcastingBroadcasting service provided via satellite. Enables high picture quality and clear sound throughout the country regardless of the location of the viewer. Sound Balance Balances the levels of the sound coming from each speaker in televisions with two speakers. Cable TV Whereas the terrestrial broadcasting is delivere d via frequency signals through the air, cable broadcasting is transmitted via a cable network. In order to view cable TV, one must purchase a cable receiver and hook it up to the cable network. CATV CATV refers to the broadcasting service offered at hotels, schools and other buildings through their own broadcasting system, apart from VHF or UHF broadcasting by terrestrial broadcasters. The CATV programs may include movies, entertainment and educational programs. (Different from cable TV.) CATV can be viewed only within the area in which the CATV service is offered.
S-Video Short for Super Video. S-Video allows up to 800 lines of horizontal resolution, enabling high-quality video. VHF/UHF VHF indicates TV channels 2 to 13, and UHF indicates channels 14 through 69. Channel Fine TuningThis feature allows the viewer to fine-tune the TV channel to obtain the best viewing conditions. The Samsung LCD TV has both automatic and manual channel fine-tuning features to enable the viewer to adjust their desired settings. External Device Input External device input refers to video input from such external video devices as VCRs, camcorders and DVD players, separate from a TV broadcast. DVDA type of digital disk technology that takes up only the benefits of CD and LD, to implement a high resolution/quality, which enables the user to enjoy clearer images. DTV Broadcasting (Digital TV Broadcasting)An enhanced broadcasting technology to process digital video signals using a set-top box, which implements a high resolution and clearer digital images on the screen. LNA (Low Noise Amplifier)This derives from artificial satellite technology that amplifies weak signals even in poor reception areas for sharper images. Antenna ConverterA connection part that is used to link a Wide antenna cable (feeder cable) to the TV. English Caption (= Caption Setting)A kind of language selection feature that provides English subtitles (caption) or character information services from broadcasting services (ex: AFKN) or video tapes (marked CC), and which are especially useful for studying English. Multiplex BroadcastingThis enables the user to enjoy the broadcasting service in both Korean and foreign (original) language as well as in stereo mode. A2 This system uses two carriers to transmit voice da ta. Countries such as South Korea and Germany use this system. BTSC Broadcast Television System Committee The stereo broadcasting system that is used in most of the countries that have adopted the NTSC system, including the United States, Canada, Chile, Venezuela and Taiwan. It also refers to the organization that has been organized to promote its development and management. EIAJ Electronic Industries Association of Japan. For Better Display 1. Adjust the computer resolution and screen inection rate (refresh rate) on the computer as described below to enjoy the best picture quality. You can have an uneven picture quality on screen if the best picture quality is not provided for TFT-LCD.
{Resolution: 1440 x 900 {Vertical frequency (refresh rate): 60 Hz
2. TFT LCD panels manufactured by using advanced semiconductor technology with a precision of
1ppm (one millionth) and above is used for this product. But the pixels of RED, GREEN, BLUE and
WHITE color seem to be bright sometimes or some of black pixels could be seen. This is not from
bad quality and you can use it without any problems.
{For example, the number of TFT LCD sub pixels contained in this product are 3,888,000.
3. When cleaning the monitor and the panel outside, please apply the recommended small amount of cleaner by using a soft cloth to polish. Do not force the LCD area but rub softly.
If excessive force is applied, you may stain it.
4. If you are not satisfied with the quality of the picture, you can get better quality of the picture by executing auto adjustment function in display screen that is appeared as window termination button
is pressed.
If theres still noise after the automatic adjustme nt, use the FINE/COARSE adjustment function.
5. When viewing a fixed screen for an extended period of time, residual image or blurriness may appear. Change the mode to energy saving mode or set a screensaver to a changing picture when away from
the monitor for an extended period of time.
6. Do not display a still image( such as on a video game or when hooking up a DVD to this LCD_TV ) on
the Color TFT-LCD ( Thin Film Transister Liquid Crys tal Display) panel for a long time as it can cause
screen image retention. This image retention is also known as screen burn. To avoid such image
retention, reduce the degree of brightness and contrast of this screen when displaying a still image.
