REAR AV Connections
SIDE AV Connections
When viewed from the rear of the TV, the following terminals/connections are visible (from left
to right):
● AC mains power cord
● HDMI 1 input (HDMI v2.0 socket for UHD source material)
● RF (TV Antenna) Input
● Coaxial digital Audio Output (RCA socket)
● AUDIO OUTPUT sockets - RCA type sockets for Left and Right audio outputs.
Note: These input and output sockets provide different functionality based on what mode the
TV is in.
- During DTV and ATV reception, USB playback, and HDMI or AV input operation, the
AUDIO OUTPUT sockets provide Audio outputs.
- Some settings on the TV (eg. the Mute control, Sound Menu settings etc) do not affect the
audio signal from the AUDIO OUTPUT socket.
- Only HDMI 1 input supports UHD source material.
- Only HDMI 1 input supports limited ARC (Audio Return Channel) functionality and you
must use an HDMI cable that supports ARC and CEC operation.
- All HDMI inputs support limited CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) functionality.
- The Coaxial digital Audio socket provides an output during DTV, USB playback and HDMI
input operation. The format of the digital output is set in the main Sound Menu (refer to
page 19 for details on setting the output format).
When viewed from the side of the TV, the following connections are visible (from left to right):
●
● VGA Input (analogue, 15 pin D-type socket)
● PC Audio Input
● HDMI 3 Input (1080p max resolution source material)
● Headphone Output (3.5mm stereo socket)
● AV INPUT sockets - RCA type socket for Composite type VIDEO input, and RCA type sockets
for Left and Right audio inputs.
● USB socket for HDTV record/playback
Note: When an HDMI port detects a DVI format signal, the matching audio signal is received
through the PC Audio input socket.
- Don't connect both an HDMI and an AV cable to the same device (eg. Blu-ray player),
as this TV may detect the duplication and report an error.
- Use only USB flash-drives or low-power portable USB hard-drives for HDTV recording.
- During AV mode operation, the AV INPUT sockets will disregard the audio inputs unless
they are accompanied by a composite Video input signal.

AV EQUIPMENT connections
You can use the input and output terminals on the TV set as follows for basic accessory
inter-connections.
a) HDMI (basic)
HDMI is a digital connection system that can carry both video and audio information. Using
HDMI connections to this TV is recommended where accessory equipment can support
higher resolution modes (such as 1080i/1080p) from products such as upscaling DVD
players, Blu-ray players and high-performance gaming consoles. For access to UHD
resolution material, such as from upscaling Blu-ray players, use only HDMI 1 input.
For basic HDMI installations, where an external surround sound processor/amplifier is not
being used, connect your accessory equipment directly to the HDMI sockets on this TV
using high quality HDMI certified cabling that supports ARC and CEC operation. All the
HDMI inputs support limited HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) functionality (refer
to page 20 for further details on CEC operation).
b) HDMI (advanced)
When using a Surround/AV amplifier system, there are numerous connection possibilities,
depending on the capabilities of the amplifier equipment. In most cases, external
accessories (such as a Blu-ray player or gaming console) that were previously connected
directly to the TV would now be connected to the amplifier via HDMI, and a seperate HDMI
cable would then be connected between the TV and the AV amplifier.
This system then allows the Surround/AV amplifier to process the surround channels and
correctly align the video and audio timing. If your Surround/AV amplifier supports HDMI
ARC (Audio Return Channel), then the HDMI ARC compliant cable connecting the amplifier
and TV together must be connected to the HDMI 1 input on this TV, otherwise a separate
audio connection (either analogue or coaxial digital) would also be required between the TV
and the AV amplifier. Refer to the User Manual for your AV amplifier for details on its specific
cabling requirements. Due to technical differences between equipment manufacturers,
HDMI ARC operation may not be possible in some installations.

d) AUDIO
For installations where you have an existing stereo system and wish to improve your
listening experience, connect a stereo RCA cable between the AV Output L/R sockets on
this TV and the appropriate line-level inputs (eg. AUX input) on your amplifier.
For even higher quality audio signal transfer to a Sound Bar or home theatre system that
supports digital audio inputs, consider using the Coaxial Digital audio output on the TV's
side panel. Use a well shielded coax cable with RCA connectors to connect the TV to your
compatible sound equipment, and then adjust the SPDIF Mode setting in the main Sound
Menu to "PCM" if required.
NB. Take care when powering up your TV/amp combination, as there may be some click or
pop sounds on the audio output of the TV during its powering up/down phase that can be
amplified by your sound system. It is highly recommended that the TV is first powered up,
and then when its screen is active, you then power up your amplifier. When powering down
the TV/amp system, turn Off your amplifier first and then switch the TV back to its Standby
state.
c) AV (Audio/Video)
This TV provides an AV input and AUDIO output using line-level analogue stereo Audio and
composite format Video signals for compatibility with earlier accessory devices eg. VCRs,
CRT TVs, basic gaming consoles etc. Refer to page 9 regarding the specific characteristics
of these AV sockets. For optimum composite video quality, use only well shielded 75 ohm
video-grade cables.

STEPS:
Be sure both the TV and computer are set to
Power off.
1.Connect a VGA and audio cable.
2.Connect the power cord.
3.Power on the TV, switch to PC mode.
4.Power on the PC.
This connection and power-up sequence is very
important. Also, for higher resolution
applications, the use of a high quality shielded
VGA cable is recommended.
The above resolutions are the only ones guaranteed to be supported. Other resolutions may also be
supported, but this must be assessed by the user on a case-by-case basis. This is also subject to the
limitiations of the computer’s video card.
ADJUSTABLE MODES
While this TV may support higher resolutions thru either the VGA or HDMI inputs, such operation is dependant on
the capabilities of the attached PC (including its graphics card, system set-up and operating system) as well as the
user’s ability to adjust the PC’s settings for optimum screen performance. Some PC graphics cards will not
correctly identify the TV’s capabilities and hence will only allow lower resolution screen displays.
This TV provides an analogue VGA input (15pin) for connection to various desktop or laptop computers. Refer to
your computer’s User manual or support website to determine if your computer may be compatible, and what
connection cabling will be needed.

REMOTE CONTROL / GETTING STARTED
-14-
Getting Started :
Once you have connected your TV antenna and other AV playback equipment (eg. CD, DVD, Blu-ray
player) to the appropriate input sockets on the rear and side of the TV, you will need to be comfortable
with selecting several basic operations before setting up your TV using the Menu system.
Firstly, the TV has two power modes – Standby and On. In Standby mode, the TV is powered up, but
awaits a "power On" command from either the Remote Control or from the Standby push-button located
on the lower right-hand side of the TV.
To switch the TV from off into Standby mode, activate the main On/Off rocker switch located at the bottom
mid-right side of the TV, and wait for the Red power indicator on the bottom right of the TV to light up. Then,
press the red power button on the Remote Control to fully activate the TV (ie. move from Standby to On
mode). The power LED on the front of the TV will change from Red to Green colour when the TV is fully
powered up, and after approx 10 seconds the screen will become active and can be commanded using
the Remote Control.
GETTING STARTED

GETTING STARTED
First Powering on the TV :
When you first power up your TV, (or you reset the TV to its factory settings), it will automatically enter the
TV Auto Tuning mode. This is where the TV searches for available TV stations and stores the station details
it finds. Make sure your TV antenna is connected before proceeding with this operation.
By default, an On Screen Display will offer a language selection (pre-set to English), so just press the OK
button on the Remote Control to confirm this option. The OK button is located in the middle of the cursor
arrow button area of the Remote Control.
The TV will then offer a selection of countries, with Australia as the pre-set option. Again press the OK
button to confirm this selection. Your TV will now scan through all the digital TV (DTV) stations that it can
receive using the connected antenna. This process may take several minutes, but once completed, the
TV will skip to the first DTV program.
The “radio” channels found during the TV Auto Tuning function are the sound-only services provided by
some TV stations. This unit does not receive DAB+ Digital Radio broadcasts.
Using the Main Menus :
Once the TV has run through the Auto Tune mode and found the available TV stations, you will then need to
know how to select the relevant input you want (eg. DTV, AV, HDMI etc), and also how to select and adjust
the various Menus that allow you to tailor the operation of the TV to suit your application.
The following pages marked “Menu Settings” will cover the usage and settings of the various menus in
more detail. Please read them carefully to gain the most benefit from your TV.

5). Signal Information: This screen provides details of the Strength and Quality of only the DTV signals being
received by the TV, and provides a relative score for each function. These readings can be helpful when
investigating possible reception problems and checking the relative performance of your TV antenna and cabling
system. Ideally, the scoring for both Strength and Quality should be as close to 100% as possible (and generally
over 75 – 80%), and the readings should be stable when viewed over short periods. Variations in either reading
may indicate an antenna or cabling issue that requires attention (eg. broken or damaged TV antenna, loose or
damaged cabling, problem with masthead amplifier etc).
6). Software Update (OAD): This setting should be set to Off in Australia.
7). Software Update (USB):
WARNING: Do not attempt to use this option unless you have a valid software program for the GE6993 TV
stored on a compatible USB drive, and the drive is connected to the TV. Remove the antenna cable
from the TV RF socket, go to the channel Menu, select "Software Update (USB)" and press OK to run the update.

connected equipment to an interlaced format.
The TV’s default for Picture Mode is the "Standard" setting, which is recommended for home viewing.
6). The Noise Reduction option is more useful for use in areas using ATV (analogue) transmissions. In Australia,
this sub-menu should be set to the Low or Medium position during DTV reception.

preferences. NB. These sound modes are not active on the audio outputs of the AV OUT sockets, or when
using HDMI ARC mode or the Digital Coaxial audio output .
2) The Auto Volume option helps reduce excessive input signal variations that may lead to distorted sound.
For most standard installations, this sub-menu should be set to the Off position.
3) The Surround Sound option generates an artificial widening of the sound stage from the TV. If this sound
effect is not suitable in your installation, leave this sub-menu in the Off position.
4) The SPDIF Mode option affects the format of the Coaxial digital audio output from the socket on the rear of
the TV. Unless you need to force the output format to Bitstream (Auto), leave this setting in the PCM position.
Note:
1) The clock time is automatically set by reading the time data that is transmitted by local Digital TV stations.
2) The Off and On timers allow you to program the TV to switch On and Off at specific times that you set. In
order for this function to operate, the TV must be powered up (ie. mains power switch on the TV is On) and in
Standby mode. The Off and On timers have 6 different setting options: Once, Every Day, Mon – Fri, Mon – Sat,
Sat – Sun, and Sunday. You can set the TV channel and volume settings for most options (except for the Once
setting, where the TV's last channel and volume settings will be used).
3) The Sleep Timer allows you to select from a range of pre-set times (between 10 minutes and 240 minutes
long) that the TV will operate for before returning to the Standby state.
4) The Time Zone setting of the TV is initially set using data from local Digital TV stations.
You can manually adjust the time zone in the TV if required (eg. for locations where DTV signals are not
available).

MENU
Note:
1) The OSD Language option allows you to select the language used in the various TV menus from a wide
selection. At the initial setup stage of the TV, the default language is English, and it is recommended that this
setting is not changed unless you are fluent in any new language chosen.
2) The Audio Languages and Subtitle Languages options relate to DTV reception only. Some TV channels
transmit their audio and subtitles in more than one language, and if this is known in advance, you can select
this alternative language. At the initial setup stage, the default language is English, and it is recommended
that this setting is not changed unless you are fluent in any new language chosen.
3) HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) allows your TV to share control of some functions with various
compatible equipment via an HDMI cable connection. The HDMI cable connecting your equipment to this TV
must support both ARC and CEC functionality.
For example, with HDMI CEC set to "On" in the TV's menu and also on an HDMI connected device that
supports CEC (eg. a Blu-ray player), selecting the HDMI input on this TV sends a signal to the Blu-ray player
and may switch it On from its Standby state (depending on the player's CEC capabilities).
If the HDMI CEC and Auto Standby options in the HDMI CEC menu are both set to "On" in the TV's Option menu,
and the connected equipment supports the Standby function, then switching On the HDMI connected player
may also switch On the TV from its Standby state. This activity may even set the TV to the HDMI input that the
external device is connected to (again, these examples depend on the capabilities of your connected
equipment).
The HDMI CEC system supports a wide variety of commands, many of which may not be applicable to this TV
or any connected HDMI equipment. Refer to the User Manual of your other equipment to check what areas of
the CEC commands they may be able to work with. If after selecting CEC operation you find the TV or any
connected equipment performing unusually (eg. switching itself back on after you're switched it back to the
Standby mode), your connected equipment may not be compatible with this TV, and the HDMI CEC sub-menu
should be set to the Off position.
4) HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) may allow compatible equipment connected to the TV (eg. a Sound Bar)
to receive audio from the TV via a "return" channel in a compatible HDMI cable, so that sound is heard thru the
Sound Bar without having to connect a second cable between the two devices. Some other functions, such as
use of the TV's remote control to control volume on the connected equipment, may also be applicable.
The HDMI cable that connects the TV to the Sound Bar must be a High-speed version which supports both HDMI
CEC and HDMI ARC (or HDMI HEAC) operation in order for the ARC function to operate correctly.
HDMI CEC and HDMI ARC options need to be switched On in the HDMI CEC sub-menu within the main Option
Menu, and any ARC compatible equipment must only be connected to the HDMI 1 input of the TV. Also, the
SPDIF Mode option in the main Sound Menu may need to be set to "PCM" mode to allow ARC operation.
As ARC functionality differs widely between different products and brands, if after selecting ARC operation you
find the TV or any connected equipment performing unusually, turn off the HDMI ARC function and use the
analogue Audio Output sockets or Coax Digital Audio socket on the TV to connect audio to your Sound Bar or
home theatre system.
