TV Features
HDTV Tuner: The TV has
built-in over-the-air HDTV (ATSC) and Digital Cable (QAM) tuners, so you don't
need a
separate set-top box to receive and decode over-the-air HDTV/SDTV
or unencrypted Digital Cable signals.
Native Resolution: The LCD television displays
all inputs at a resolution of 720p (1366 x 768). The television's HDMI and
component video inputs will accept 1080i, 720p, and 480p video signals.
6ms Response Time: One of the most important features for an
LCD panel is the pixel response time. Response time refers to the amount of time
it takes a pixel to "refresh" itself-to go from being active to being inactive,
(ready to be re-activated). The lower the milliseconds, the faster the response
time. A television's very fast 6ms response time virtually eliminates any
blurring and gives you smooth-motion action scenes
Contrast Ratio: This TV has an 8000:1 dynamic contrast
ratio, giving you brilliant brightness and contrast for superior picture and
detail from both PC and TV images.
Picture Sizes: You can choose one of the following picture
sizes:
- Wide: Adjusts the picture size to Wide, appropriate for
DVDs or wide broadcasts
- 16:9: Sets the picture to 16:9 wide mode
- Zoom 1: Magnifies the size of the picture and allows
you to move the enlarged picture using the arrows on the remote
- Zoom 2: Magnifies the size of the picture more than
Zoom 1 and allows you to move the enlarged picture using the arrows on the
remote
- 4:3: Sets the picture to 4:3 normal mode, with black
bars on both sides
- Just Scan: To see the full image without any cutoff
when HDMI 720p/1080i signals are input
Automatic Picture Settings: You can choose one of the
following picture settings, each input stores its own setting:
- Standard: Uses the standard factory settings
- Dynamic: For viewing the TV during the day, or when
there is bright light in the room
- Movie: For viewing the TV in low light
Note: You can adjust and store the following settings
for each picture setting: contrast, brightness, sharpness, color, tint,
color tone and backlight.
Film Mode: The TV can be set to automatically sense and
process film signals from all sources and adjust the picture from optimum
quality.
Digital Noise Reduction: If the broadcast signal received by
your TV is weak, you can activate the Digital Noise Reduction feature to help
reduce any static and ghosting that may appear on the screen.
Auto Volume: Auto volume automatically adjusts the volume of
the desired channel, lowering the sound output when the modulation signal is
high or raising the sound output when the modulation signal is low. This reduces
the difference in volume when changing channels.
EQ: You can adjust the 5-band EQ, which includes the
following frequencies: 100 Hz, 300 Hz, 1 kHz, 3 kHz, and 10 kHz. You can also
set the balance between the left and right channels.
Automatic Sound Settings: You can choose from the following
sound settings:
- Standard: Uses the standard factory settings
- Music: For watching music videos and concerts
- Movie: For watching movies
- Speech: For watching a show that is mostly dialogue
- Custom: Recalls your personal EQ settings
SRS TruSurround XT: TruSurround is a patented SRS technology
that solves the problem of playing 5.1 multi-channel content using only two
speakers. TruSurround delivers a compelling, virtual surround sound experience
through the two speaker internal playback system. It is fully compatible with
all multi-channel formats.
PC-Capable: This unit has a 15-pin D-Sub (RGB) input that
allows you to use it as a high-resolution computer monitor. The HDMI input can
also be used for connecting the PC. The TV can be set to automatically adjust to
the video signals received, or you can use the setup menu to adjust the screen
quality and position. No cables are supplied for connecting the TV to a PC.
Digital Signal Strength Meter: The digital signal strength
meter can be used to help you find the antenna position that delivers the
highest HDTV digital signal strength.
Analog Channel Fine Tuning: The fine tuning feature allows
you to manually adjust analog channels for optimal reception. A separate fine
tuning setting may be put into the TV's memory for each analog channel.
Input Source Names: You can assign a name for the component
connected to each of the inputs. When input naming is completed, you will no
longer have to remember which component is connected to each input when
selecting a source to watch. Source names you can choose from include: VCR, DVD,
Cable StB, Satellite STB, PVR STB, AV Receiver, Game, Camcorder, PC, TV, IPTV,
Blue-Ray, and HD DVD.
Channel Labels: Each analog channel programmed into memory
can be labeled with a name up to 5 characters. Digital channel names are already
assigned and cannot be edited.
Favorite Channel: You can create a list of your favorite
channels and recall the list using the FAV.CH button on the remote.
V-Chip: The V-Chip automatically locks out programs that are
deemed inappropriate for children. You can set up the parameters for the V-Chip
using the TV Parental Guidelines, MPAA (movie) ratings, Canadian French, or
Canadian English ratings systems. The V-Chip function is protected by a 4-digit
PIN.
Energy Saver: This feature adjust the brightness of the TV
in order to reduce power consumption. When watching TV at night, set the Energy
Saver feature to High to reduce eye fatigue as well as power consumption. You
can set this feature to High, Medium, Low or Off.
Sleep Timer: The sleep timer switches the television off
after a specified amount of time. The sleep timer can be set to 30, 60, 90, 120,
150, or 180 minutes.
On/Off Timers: The three On/Off timers allow you to program
the television to turn itself on and off by selecting a specific on time and a
specific off time. You also choose the On Timer's channel and Volume. The on and
off timers work independently of one another.
On/Off Melody: A unique melody plays when the TV is turned
on and off. You can turn this feature off if you prefer.
TV Only Remote: The supplied remote is pre-programmed to
operate this unit only.
Mounting Options
Pedestal Stand (Swivel): The TV is shipped with the pedestal
stand unattached. The pedestal stand consists of one pedestal base and one
pedestal shaft that attach to one another using the supplied hardware. The
pedestal stand then attaches to the television using the supplied hardware. Once
attached, the pedestal stand allows you to swivel the TV left to right
20-degrees. The stand adds approximately 2.0625" to the overall height of the TV.
Wall Mounting: The TV has four threaded inserts on the back
for use with an optional wall-mount bracket. The spacing of the mounting holes
is VESA 200 x 200
(200mm horizontal x 200mm vertical) in accordance with the industry standards set by the Video
Electronics Standards Association. The threaded inserts require M6 (6mm) machine screws
(not supplied).
Input and Output Notes
Dual HDMI: The two HDMI inputs can be used to connect a DVD
player, Game console, HDTV or Satellite Set-top box with an HDMI output. The
HDMI 2 input can also be used to connect a device with a DVI output (a
DVI-to-HDMI adapter cable is necessary). If a DVI-equipped device is used,
separate audio cables will also be needed from the device to the "DVI In" RCA
stereo audio jacks. No audio cables are needed for an HDMI-equipped device. The
HDMI input can also be used to connect a PC to this TV. The HDMI jack will
accept 1080i, 720p, and 480p signals.
Dual Component Video: The two Component Video jack will
accept 1080i, 720p, 480p, and 480i signals. Separate RCA stereo audio inputs are
provided for each Component Video input. The two Component Video inputs can also
be used as two composite video inputs.
PC: This input consists of a stereo mini-jack and an analog
RGB (D-Sub 15-pin) jack. This jack allows you to connect a personal computer
with a D-Sub 15-pin output. When using the RGB (D-Sub 15-pin) jack, you must use
the PC Audio 3.5mm input for your audio connection.
Digital Audio: The optical digital output (with plastic
cover) on the rear panel will output Dolby Digital (when available) or 2 channel
PCM.
Service: USB port for installing future Samsung firmware upgrades via
a USB drive that has downloaded firmware information from Samsung's website.
