HOW TO SET UP YOUR NEW HITACHI PROJECTION TV
ANTENNA
Unless your TV is connected to a cable TV system or to a centralized antenna system, a good outdoor color TV antenna is
recommended for best performance. However, if you are located in an exceptionally good signal area that is free from interference and
multiple image ghosts, an indoor antenna may be sufficient.
LOCATION
Select an area where sunlight or bright indoor illumination will not fall directly on the picture screen. Also, be sure that the location
selected allows a free flow of air to and from the perforated back cover of the set.
To avoid cabinet warping, cabinet color changes, and increased chance of set failure, do not place the TV where temperatures can
become excessively hot, for example, in direct sunlight or near a heating appliance, etc.
VIEWING
The major benefit of the HITACHI Projection Television is its large viewing screen. To see this large screen at its best, test various
locations in the room to find the optimum spot for viewing.
The best picture is seen by sitting directly in front of the TV and about 10 to 18 feet from the screen. Picture brightness decreases as
the viewer moves to the left and right of the receiver.
During daylight hours, reflections from outside light may appear on the screen. If so, drapes or screens can be used to reduce the
reflection or the TV can be located in a different section of the room.
If the TV’s audio output will be connected to a Hi-Fi system’s external speakers, the best audio performance will be obtained by placing
the speakers equidistant from each side of the receiver cabinet and as close as possible to the height of the picture screen center. For
best stereo separation, place the external speakers at least four feet from the side of the TV, place the surround speakers to the side
or behind the viewing area. Differences in room sizes and acoustical environments will require some experimentation with speaker
placement for best performance.

CONNECTING A/V NETWORK
Your Hitachi Television is equiped with an A/V Network feature. This feature helps to control your external Audio/Video equipment
(VCR, Set Top Box, DVD, etc.). Once this is setup, it allows your IR Mouse connector to control your equipment using your Hitachi
TV Remote Control. You can use your Hitachi remote control to control the Audio/Video equipment command without the equipment’s remote control.
The Television rear panel has 2 IR BLASTER jacks. Each IR Mouse cable can connect up to 2 external Audio/Video components.
Therefore, you can connect the Television with up to four components. Please see the following example of an A/V Network setup
between your Hitachi Television and external Audio/Video equipment (VCR and DVD Player).
CONNECTING EXTERNAL AUDIO/VIDEO COMPONENTS TO IR BLASTER FOR A/V NETWORK

NOTE: MOVIE MODE 3:2 PULLDOWN DETECTION SPECIAL FEATURE
Theatrical movies are shot on film at 24 frames or still pictures per second, instead of 30 frames or 60 fields like video. When
film is transferred to video for television viewing, the disparity between the two frame rates must be reconciled. This involves
a process known as 3:2 pulldown.
When MOVIE mode is selected from the Picture Mode menu, your Hitachi Projection Television will activate the circuitry for
this special feature to improve video performance when watching film based sources. This 3:2 pulldown detection will only
work in MOVIE mode.
When NEWS mode is selected, the following are automatically set:
CONTRAST - 75%, COLOR TEMPERATURE - MEDIUM, LOUDNESS - ON, PERFECT VOLUME - ON.
When MUSIC mode is selected, the following are automatically set:
CONTRAST - 100%, COLOR TEMPERATURE - HIGH, LOUDNESS - OFF, PERFECT VOLUME - OFF, SURROUND - BBE
Mach3Bass.
You can customize each of the above modes (SPORTS, MOVIES, NEWS, and MUSIC) to your preference to increase viewing performance and pleasure, depending upon the video program being viewed. However, if RESET is selected, each mode will reset to the
initial conditions as explained above.
If RESET is selected in SPORTS mode, only SPORTS mode will return to factory conditions.
Press EXIT to quit menu or select PICTURE MODE to return to previous menu.

and SHARPNESS can be selected and adjusted in the same manner.
2. It may be necessary to adjust TINT to obtain optimum picture quality when using the COMPONENT VIDEO Y-PBPR
input jacks.
3. If you are using the COMPONENT VIDEO input jacks (Y-PBPR) and notice that the TINT and COLOR are abnormal,
check to make sure that Picture Formats - Component Color Type is set properly.

Magic Focus
Auto Digital Convergence Adjustment
Please turn ON your television for at least 20 minutes before using this feature.
Your HITACHI Projection TV has three color projection tubes: one for red, one for green, one for blue. When mixed together in the
proper proportion, the output of these three color tubes can produce any color. To produce these colors, however, the beams must be
precisely aligned over each other so that the colors can be mixed. The process of aligning these picture beams is called “convergence”.
Over a period of time, the picture tubes can drift out of alignment due to normal bumps and vibrations or moving the TV. If you move
your TV, or if, after a time, you notice color rings or halos around objects in the picture, you may want to converge (align) the colors.
Properly converged, the lines appear white, which is actually a combination of the outputs of the three color tubes. The output of the
green tube is stationary. The outputs of the red and blue tubes can be adjusted. When properly aligned, the outputs of all three tubes
should be directly over each other to produce the white lines.
To simplify convergence, HITACHI incorporates a function called MAGIC FOCUS located on the front control panel, which allows the
TV to self-adjust. Press this MAGIC FOCUS button and the convergence self adjustment will start and this process will take
approximately 20 seconds. If this button is pressed during this process, no change in picture quality will occur. After this 20 second
self-adjust period, picture quality will be optimum. (Do not move the TV during self-adjust.)
You may also select MAGIC FOCUS from the Video Menu.

NOTES: Only a momentary press of the MAGIC FOCUS button is necessary to start AUTO DIGITAL CONVERGENCE. At any
time during this convergence correction process, you may press the MAGIC FOCUS button to exit the MAGIC FOCUS
mode. However, the convergence correction process needs to be completed to SAVE the new corrected convergence
data.

NOTES: 1.
2.

Please turn ON your television for at least 20 minutes before using this feature.
Auto Adjustment Mode is recommended. If convergence is still not acceptable, use the Manual Adjustment Mode.
DO NOT press MAGIC FOCUS or use Auto Adjustment Mode after using Manual Adjustment Mode.

Using the Remote Control, select VIDEO-MAGIC FOCUS-MANUAL ADJUSTMENT MODE to access convergence crosshatch pattern.
The adjustment point is indicated by the Adjustment Point Cursor.
To Move Adjustment Point
To move adjustment point, the Adjustment Cursor must be WHITE. Use the THUMB STICK to move the Adjustment Cursor. Another
way to move the Adjustment Point Cursor is to press the followiing buttons: [2] up, [4] left, [5] down, [6] right. If you use the number
buttons while the adjustment point is WHITE, it will change to RED.
To Change the Color of Adjustment Point
Press the SELECT button repeatedly (WHITE-RED-BLUE-WHITE...). Green color is fixed and cannot be adjusted.
To Adjust the Convergence
Move the Adjustment Cursor to the point to be adjusted. Use the THUMB STICK to match the RED and BLUE colors to GREEN
(reference color). Properly aligned, all three colors should appear white.

CARE OF YOUR HITACHI TELEVISION
AND YOUR REMOTE CONTROL
DO
Dust the screen and cabinet with a soft cloth.

Clean the screen with a soft cloth moistened in warm water and dry with a soft cloth. A mild soap may be used if
the screen is extremely dirty.

Place your Television away from extreme heat, humidity, and extremely dusty places.

Remove the plug from the wall outlet if your Television will not be used for a long period of time, for instances,
when you go on vacation.

DO NOT
Do not clean your screen or cabinet with strong cleaners, polishes or a chemically treated cloth.

Do not place rubber or vinyl products or cellophane tape on your Television.

Do not touch the screen too often.

Do not subject the remote control to shocks such as dropping it on the floor, etc. Physical damage to the precision
parts may result.

Avoid placing the remote control or the Simple Remote Control in a high humidity place or getting it wet. Do not leave
it on or near a heater. Excessive heat or moisture may cause the unit to cease operation.

When the batteries run down, remote control operation will become erratic or possibly stop altogether. Replace the
old batteries with two new “AA” or “AAA” size batteries. Do not use an old battery with a new battery.

Exposure of the viewing screen to prolonged direct sunlight or heat may cause the screen to permanently warp,
resulting in a distorted picture.

63

Reception Problems
• IGNITION NOISE:
Black spots or horizontal streaks may appear, picture may flutter or drift.
Usually caused by interference from automobile ignition systems, neon
lamps, electrical drills, and other electrical appliances.

• GHOSTS:
Ghosts are caused by the television signal following two paths. One is the
direct path and the other is reflected from tall buildings, hills or some other
objects. Changing the direction or position of the antenna may improve
reception. Ghosting may also be caused by defects in the antenna system
such as unshielded leads or connecting several sets to the same antenna
without using multiple antenna couplers.

• SNOW:
If your receiver is located in the fringe area of a television station where
the signal is weak, your picture may be marred by the appearance of small
dots. When the signal is extremely weak, it may be necessary to install a
special antenna to improve the picture.

• RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE:
The interference produces moving ripples or diagonal streaks, and in
some cases, causes loss of contrast in the picture.

NOTE:

The Display can generate sound distortion in external devices such as a radio. Please separate radio equipment from
the Display to a considerable distance.
