Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
Overview of cable types
Cables can be purchased from most stores that sell audio/
video devices. Before purchasing any cables, be sure
of
connector types required by your devices and the length of
each cable.
Coaxial (F-type) cable
G {tf)-------
Coaxial (F-type) cable is used for connecting your antenna,
cable TV service, and/or cable converter box to the
ANTI
CABLE input on your TV.
Standard AN cables (red/white/yellow)
~:E7
~ -~-----
~
Standard AN cables (composite video) usually come in sets
of three, and are for use with video devices with analog audio
and composite video output. These cables (and the related
inputs on your
TV) are typically color-coded according to
use: yellow for video, red for stereo right audio, and white for
stereo left (or mono) audio.
S-video cable
OdJIIIDm-----
S-video cable is for use with video devices with S-video
output. Separate audio cables are required for acomplete
connection.
Note: An S-video cable provides better picture performance
than acomposite video cable. Ifyou connect an S-video
cable, be sure to disconnect the standard (composite) video
cable
or the picture performance will be unacceptable.
Component video cables (red/green/blue)
~3:7 ~ -~-----
~
Component video cables come in sets of three and are for
use with video devices with component video output.
(ColorStream®
is Toshiba's brand of component video.) These
cables are typically color-coded red, green, and blue. Separate
audio cables are required for acomplete connection.
Note: Component video cables provide better picture
performance than astandard (composite) video
or S-video
cable.
1
12
HDMITM cable (with HDMI Logo "Hi:Jml")
HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) cable is for
use with devices with an HDMI output. An HDMI cable
delivers digital audio and video
in its native format. This
cable carries both video and audio information; therefore,
separate audio cables are not required for acomplete HDMI
device connection (1& page
17 and page 19).
Note: HOMI cable provides betterpicture performance than
astandard (composite) video or S-video cable.
Optical audio cable
[Q]~...---
Optical audio cable is for connecting receivers with Dolby
Digital
or PCM (pulse-code modulation) optical audio input
to the
TV's DIGITAL AUDIO OUT terminal (1& page 18).
Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable
Analog RGB (15-pin) computer cable is for connecting aPC
to the
TV's PC IN terminal (1& page 19).
About the connection illustrations
You can connect different types and brands of devices to
your TV
in several different configurations. The connection
illustrations in this manual are representative
of typical
device connections only. The input/output terminals on your
devices may differ from those illustrated herein. For details
on connecting and using your specific devices, refer.to each
device's owner's manual.

Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
Connecting an HOMITM or OVI
device to the HOMI input
The HDMI input on your TV receives digital audio and
uncompressed digital video from
an HDMI source device,
or uncompressed digital video from aDVI (Digital Visual
Interface) source device.
This input
is designed to accept HDCP (High-Bandwidth
Digital-Content Protection) program material
in digital form
from EIA/CEA-861-D--compliant
fll
consumer electronic
devices (such
as aset-top box or DVD player with HOM] or
DVI output).
The HDMI input can accept and display VGA, 480i (60Hz),
480p (60Hz),
nop (60Hz), and 1080i (60Hz) signal formats.
For detailed signal specifications, see page 60.
Supported Audio format: Linear PCM, sampling rate 32/44.1/
48 kHz
Note: To connect aPC to the HOMI input, see page 19.
To connect an HOMI device, you will need:
•one HDMI cable (type Aconnector) per HDMI device
-For proper operation, it is recommended that you use an
HOMI
cable with the HOMI Logo (HLlm.).
- To display an 1080i/60Hz signal format, you will need a
Category 2cable. Conventional HOM I/O VI cable may
not work properly
-HOMI cable transfers both video
and audio. Separate
analog audio cables are
not required (see illustration).
-See "Setting the
HOMITM audio mode" (1rF page 32).

per DVI device
-For proper operation, the length of an HOMI-to-OVI
adapter cable should not exceed 9.8 ft (3m). The
recommended length is 6.6 ft (2m).
•one pair of standard analog audio cables per DVI device
-An HOMI-to-OVI adapter cable transfers video only
Separate analog audio cables are required (see

Chapter 3: Using the remote control
Preparing the remote control for
use
Your TV remote control can operate your TV and many other
devices such as cable converter boxes, satellite receivers,
VCRs, DVD players, and HTIBs (home theater
in abox),
even if they are different brands.
If you have aToshiba device:
Your TV remote control is preprogrammed to operate most
Toshiba devices (I&' page 24).
If you have anon-Toshiba device or aToshiba device
that the remote control is not preprogrammed to
operate:
You can program the TV remote control so it will operate the
other device
(1& pages 22-26).
Installing the remote control
batteries
1Remove the battery cover from the back of the remote
control.
Squeeze tab
and lift cover.
2Install two "AAA" size batteries, making sure to match
the +and -signs on the batteries
to the signs on the
battery compartment.
3Reinsert the battery cover in the remote control until the
tab snaps.
Caution: Batteries must not be exposed to excessive heat
such as sunshine, fire
or the like.
Note:
•Be sure to use AAA size batteries.
•Dispose
of batteries in adesignated disposal area.
•Batteries should always be disposed
of with the
environment
in mind. Always dispose of batteries in
accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
•If the remote control does not operate correctly,
or if the
operating range becomes reduced, replace batteries with
new ones.
I 20
• When necessary to replace batteries in the remote control,
always replace both batteries with new ones. Never mix
battery types or use new
and used batteries in combination
•.Always remove batteries from the remote control if they
are
dead or if the remote control is not to be used for an
extended period
of time. This will prevent battery acid from
leaking into the battery compartment.
Remote control effective range
For optimum performance, aim the remote control directly
at the TV and make sure there
is no obstruction between the
remote control and the
TV.
Point remote control
toward remote sensor on
front of
TV.
