CAUTION concerning the Power Cord:
It is recommend that appliances be placed
upon a dedicated circuit; that is, a single
outlet circuit which powers only that appliance
and has no additional outlets or branch
circuits. Check the specification page of this
owner's manual to be certain.
Do not connect too many appliances to the
same AC power outlet as this could result in
fire or electric shock.
Do not overload wall outlets. Overloaded wall
outlets, loose or damaged wall outlets, extension
cords, frayed power cords, or damaged or
cracked wire insulation are dangerous. Any of
these conditions could result in electric shock
or fire. Periodically examine the cord of your
appliance, and if its appearance indicates damage
or deterioration, unplug it, discontinue use of
the appliance, and have the cord replaced with
an exact replacement part by an authorized
servicer. Protect the power cord from physical
or mechanical abuse, such as being twisted,
kinked, pinched, closed in a door, or walked
upon. Pay particular attention to plugs, wall
outlets, and the point where the cord exits the

If an outdoor antenna is installed, follow the
precautions below. An outdoor antenna system
should not be located in the vicinity of over-
head power lines or other electric light or
power circuits, or where it can come in contact
with such power lines or circuits as death or
serious injury can occur.
Be sure the antenna system is grounded so as
to provide some protection against voltage
surges and built-up static charges.
Section 810 of the National Electrical Code
(NEC) in the U.S.A. provides information with
respect to proper grounding of the mast and
supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in
wire to an antenna discharge unit, size of
grounding conductors, location of antenna dis-
charge unit, connection to grounding elec-
trodes and requirements for the grounding
electrode.

FEATURE OF THIS TV
When a fixed image (e.g. logos, screen menus, video game, and computer display) is displayed on the TV
for an extended period, it can become permanently imprinted on the screen. This phenomenon is known
as “image burn” or “burn-in.” Image burn is not covered under the manufacturer’s warranty.
In order to prevent image burn, avoid displaying a fixed image on your TV screen for a prolonged period
(2 or more hours for LCD, 1 or more hours for Plasma TV).
Image burn can also occur on the letterboxed
areas of your TV if you use the 4:3 aspect
ratio setting for an extended period.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO PREVENT “IMAGE BURN
/ BURN-IN” ON YOUR TV SCREEN
The AV Mode optimizes the picture into Cinema,
Sports, and game Mode according to the video and
audio content. The viewer has the ability to quickly
choose the correct mode for the picture they are
viewing.

tion for a more detailed picture.
Automatically enhances and amplifies the sound of
human voice frequency range to help keep dialogue
audible when background noise swells.
LG TV include a unique invisible speaker system,
tuned by renowned audio expert, Mr. Mark Levinson.
Speakers are embedded in strategic spots behind the
front cabinet and use minute vibrations to turn the
entire front bezel into the speaker system. The result
is a clean, polished look, and enhanced audio by
increasing the “sweet spot”, giving a wider and richer
sound field.

water and a little fabric softener or dish washing detergent. Wring the cloth until it’s almost dry, and then
use it to wipe the screen.
Make sure the excess water is off the screen, and then let it air-dry before you turn on your TV.
Cleaning the Cabinet
To remove dirt or dust, wipe the cabinet with a soft, dry, lint-free cloth.
Please be sure not to use a wet cloth.
Extended Absence
GG If you expect to leave your TV dormant for a long time (such as a vacation), it’s a good idea to unplug
the power cord to protect against possible damage from lightning or power surges.

Transmission [m][a][ ][Set ID][ ][Data00][ ][Data01]
[ ][Data02][ ][Data03][ ][Data04][ ][Data05][Cr]
Digital channels have a Physical, Major, and Minor channel
number. The Physical number is the actual digital channel
number, the Major is the number that the channel should
be mapped to, and the Minor is the sub-channel. Since
the ATSC tuner automatically maps the channel to the
Major number, the Physical number is not required when
sending a command.
Data 00: Physical Channel Number
NTSC air: 02~45, NTSC cable: 01, 0E~7D
ATSC air: 01~45, ATSC cable: 01~87
Data 01 & 02: Major Channel Number
Data 01: High byte Data 02: Low byte
Two bytes are available for the Major and Minor, nor-
mally only the second byte is used.
Data 03 & 04: Minor Channel Number
Not needed for NTSC.
APPENDIX
119
Data5:
The table above lists the binary code which must be
converted to Hexadecimal before sending. For example:
The binary code to tune the sub source to an NTSC
cable channel is “1000 0001”, which translates to “81”
in Hex.
* 7th bit : For which source do you want to change the
channel.
* 6th bit: Use a two part or one part channel. Most cases
just use 0 since it’s ignored when using NTSC.
* 5th bit: Use 0 with NTSC since it can only use the phys-
ical channel number. Normally use 1 for ATSC since most
times it doesn’t matter what the physical number is.
* 4th bit: Set to 0.
* 3-0 bits: Choose signal type.
* Tune Command Examples:
1. Tune to the analog (NTSC) cable channel 35.
Data 00 = Physical of 35 = 23
Data 01 & 02 = No Major = 00 00
Data 03 & 04 = No Minor = 00 00
Data 05 = 0000 0001 in binary = 01
Total = ma 00 23 00 00 00 00 01
2. Tune to the digital (ATSC) local channel 30-3.
Data 00 = Don’t know Physical = 00
Data 01 & 02 = Major is 30 = 00 1E
Data 03 & 04 = Minor is 3 = 00 03
Data 05 = 0010 0010 in binary = 22

ware, and (2) offer you this license which gives you legal permis-
sion to copy, distribute and/or modify the software.
Also, for each author's protection and ours, we want to make cer-
tain that everyone understands that there is no warranty for this
free software. If the software is modified by someone else and
passed on, we want its recipients to know that what they have is
not the original, so that any problems introduced by others will
not reflect on the original authors' reputations.
Finally, any free program is threatened constantly by software
patents. We wish to avoid the danger that redistributors of a free
program will individually obtain patent licenses, in effect making
the program proprietary. To prevent this, we have made it clear
that any patent must be licensed for everyone's free use or not
licensed at all.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow.
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION
AND MODIFICATION
0. This license applies to any program or other work which con-
tains a notice placed by the copyright holder saying it may be
distributed under the terms of this General Public License. The
"Program", below, refers to any such program or work, and a
"work based on the Program" means either the Program or any
derivative work under copyright law: that is to say, a work con-
taining the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with
modifications and/or translated into another language.
(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the
term "modification".) Each licensee is addressed as "you".
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification
are not covered by this license; they are outside its scope.
The act of running the Program is not restricted, and the out-
put from the program is covered only if its contents constitute
a work based on the program (independent of having been
made by running the program). Whether that is true depends
on what the program does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the program's
source code as you receive it, in any medium, provided that
you conspicuously and appropriately publish on each copy an
appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of warranty; keep
intact all the notices that refer to this license and to the
absence of any warranty; and give any other recipients of the
program a copy of this license along with the Program.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a
copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in
exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the program or any
portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Program, and
copy and distribute such modifications or work under the
terms of section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of
these conditions:
a) You must cause the modified files to carry prominent
notices stating that you changed the files and the date of
any change.
GNU GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2, June 1991
APPENDIX
121
b) You must cause any work that you distribute or publish,
that in whole or in part contains or is derived from the
Program or any part there of, to be licensed as a whole at
no charge to all third parties under the terms of this
license.
c) If the modified program normally reads commands interac-
tively when run, you must cause it, when started running
for such interactive use in the most ordinary way, to print
or display an announcement including an appropriate
copyright notice and a notice that there is no warranty (or
else, saying that you provide a warranty) and that users
may redistribute the program under these conditions, and
telling the user how to view a copy of this license.
(Exception: if the Program itself is interactive but does not
normally print such an announcement, your work based on
the Program is not required to print an announcement.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the
Program, and can be reasonably considered independent and
separate works in themselves, then this license, and its terms,
do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as
separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as
part of a whole which is a work based on the Program, the dis-
tribution of the whole must be on the terms of this license,
whose permissions for other licensees extend to the entire
whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who
wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or con-
test your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the
intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of
derivative or collective works based on the program.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on
the program with the Program (or with a work based on the
program) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium
does not bring the other work under the scope of this license.
3. You may copy and distribute the program (or a work based on
it, under section 2) in object code or executable form under
the terms of sections 1 and 2 above provided that you also
do one of the following:
a) Accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-
readable source code, which must be distributed under the
terms of sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily
used for software interchange; or,
b) Accompany it with a written offer, valid for at least three
years, to give any third party, for a charge no more than
your cost of physically performing source distribution, a
complete machine-readable copy of the corresponding
source code, to be distributed under the terms of sections
1 and 2 above on a medium customarily used for software
interchange; or,
c) Accompany it with the information you received as to the
offer to distribute corresponding source code. (This alter-
native is allowed only for noncommercial distribution and
only if you received the program in object code or exe-
cutable form with such an offer, in accord with Subsection
b above.)
The source code for a work means the preferred form of the
work for making modifications to it. For an executable work,
complete source code means all the source code for all mod-
ules it contains, plus any associated interface definition files,
plus the scripts used to control compilation and installation
of the executable. However, as a special exception, the source
code distributed need not include anything that is normally
distributed (in either source or binary form) with the major
components (compiler, kernel, and so on) of the operating
system on which the executable runs, unless that component
itself accompanies the executable.
If distribution of executable or object code is made by offer-
ing access to copy from a designated place, then offering
equivalent access to copy the source code from the same
place counts as distribution of the source code, even though
third parties are not compelled to copy the source along with
the object code.
4. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, or distribute the Program
except as expressly provided under this license. Any attempt
otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense or distribute the
Program is void, and will automatically terminate your rights
under this license. However, parties who have received copies,
or rights, from you under this license will not have their licens-
es terminated so long as such parties remain in full compli-
ance.
5. You are not required to accept this license, since you have not
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to
modify or distribute the Program or its derivative works.
These actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this
license. Therefore, by modifying or distributing the program
(or any work based on the program), you indicate your accep-
tance of this license to do so, and all its terms and conditions
for copying, distributing or modifying the program or works
based on it.
6. Each time you redistribute the program (or any work based on
the Program), the recipient automatically receives a license
from the original licensor to copy, distribute or modify the
Program subject to these terms and conditions. You may not
impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of
the rights granted herein. You are not responsible for enforc-
ing compliance by third parties to this license.
APPENDIX

7. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of
patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to
patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by
court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the con-
ditions of this license, they do not excuse you from the con-
ditions of this license. If you cannot distribute so as to satis-
fy simultaneously your obligations under this license and any
other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
not distribute the program at all. For example, if a patent
license would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the
program by all those who receive copies directly or indirectly
through you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and
this license would be to refrain entirely from distribution of
the program.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable
under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section
is intended to apply and the section as a whole is intended to
apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe
any patents or other property right claims or to contest valid-
ity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of
protecting the integrity of the free software distribution sys-
tem, which is implemented by public license practices. Many
people have made generous contributions to the wide range
of software distributed through that system in reliance on
consistent application of that system; it is up to the
author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute
software through any other system and a licensee cannot
impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is
believed to be a consequence of the rest of this license.
8. If the distribution and/or use of the program is restricted in
certain countries either by patents or by copyrighted inter-
faces, the original copyright holder who places the program
under this license may add an explicit geographical distribution
limitation excluding those countries, so that distribution is
permitted only in or among countries not thus excluded. In
such case, this license incorporates the limitation as if written
in the body of this license.
9. The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or
new versions of the General Public License from time to time.
Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present ver-
sion, but may differ in detail to address new problems or con-
cerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
program specifies a version number of this license which
applies to it and "any later version", you have the option of
following the terms and conditions either of that version or of
any later version published by the Free Software Foundation.
If the program does not specify a version number of this
license, you may choose any version ever published by the
Free Software Foundation.
10.If you wish to incorporate parts of the program into other free
programs whose distribution conditions are different, write to
the author to ask for permission. For software which is copy-
righted by the Free Software Foundation, write to the Free
Software Foundation; we sometimes make exceptions for this.
Our decision will be guided by the two goals of preserving the
free status of all derivatives of our free software and of pro-
moting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
11. BECAUSE THE PROGRAM IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,
THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE PROGRAM, TO THE
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLD-
ERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE PROGRAM "AS
IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED
TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY
AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE
RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
PROGRAM IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE PROGRAM PROVE
DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY
SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
12.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR
AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER,
OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
REDISTRIBUTE THE PROGRAM AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE
LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL,
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE PRO-
GRAM (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA
OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUS-
TAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE
PROGRAM TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER PROGRAMS),
EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to apply these terms to your new programs
If you develop a new program, and you want it to be of the great-
est possible use to the public, the best way to achieve this is to
make it free software which everyone can redistribute and change
under these terms.
To do so, attach the following notices to the program. It is safest
to attach them to the start of each source file to most effective-
ly convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should have at
least the "copyright" line and a pointer to where the full notice is
found.
one line to give the program's name and a brief idea of what it
does.
Copyright (C) <year> <name of author>
This program is free software; you can redistribute it and/or
modify it under the terms of the GNU General Public License as
published by the Free Software Foundation; either version 2 of
the license, or (at your option) any later version.
This program is distributed in the hope that it will be useful, but
WITHOUT ANY WARRANTY; without even the implied warranty
of MERCHANTABILITY or FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PUR-
POSE. See the GNU General Public License for more details.
You should have received a copy of the GNU General Public
License along with this program; if not, write to the Free Software
Foundation, Inc., 51 Franklin Street, Fifth Floor, Boston, MA
02110-1301 USA.
Also add information on how to contact you by electronic and
paper mail.
If the program is interactive, make it output a short notice like
this when it starts in an interactive mode:
Gnomovision version 69, Copyright (C) year name of author
Gnomovision comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; for
details type ‘show w’. This is free software, and you are welcome
to redistribute it under certain conditions; type ‘show c’ for
details.
The hypothetical commands ‘show w’ and ‘show c’ should show
the appropriate parts of the General Public License. Of course,
the commands you use may be called something other than
‘show w’ and ‘show c’; they could even be mouse-clicks or menu
items-whatever suits your program.
You should also get your employer (if you work as a programmer)
or your school, if any, to sign a “copyright disclaimer” for the pro-
gram, if necessary. Here is a sample; alter the names:
Yoyodyne, Inc., hereby disclaims all copyright interest in the pro-
gram ‘Gnomovision’ (which makes passes at compilers) written by
James Hacker.

This General Public License does not permit incorporating your
program into proprietary programs. If your program is a subrou-
tine library, you may consider it more useful to permit linking pro-
prietary applications with the library. If this is what you want to
do, use the GNU Lesser General Public License instead of this
license.

Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of
this license document, but changing it is not allowed.
[This is the first released version of the Lesser GPL. It also
counts as the successor of the GNU Library Public License, ver-
sion 2, hence the version number 2.1.]
Preamble
The licenses for most software are designed to take away your
freedom to share and change it. By contrast, the GNU General
Public Licenses are intended to guarantee your freedom to share
and change free software - to make sure the software is free for
all its users.
This license, the Lesser General Public License, applies to some
specially designated software packages - typically libraries - of
the Free Software Foundation and other authors who decide to
use it. You can use it too, but we suggest you first think careful-
ly about whether this license or the ordinary General Public
License is the better strategy to use in any particular case, based
on the explanations below.
When we speak of free software, we are referring to freedom of
use, not price. Our General Public Licenses are designed to make
sure that you have the freedom to distribute copies of free soft-
ware (and charge for this service if you wish); that you receive
source code or can get it if you want it; that you can change the
software and use pieces of it in new free programs; and that you
are informed that you can do these things.
To protect your rights, we need to make restrictions that forbid
distributors to deny you these rights or to ask you to surrender
these rights. These restrictions translate to certain responsibilities
for you if you distribute copies of the library or if you modify it.
For example, if you distribute copies of the library, whether gratis
or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that we
gave you. You must make sure that they, too, receive or can get
the source code. If you link other code with the library, you must
provide complete object files to the recipients, so that they can
relink them with the library after making changes to the library
and recompiling it. And you must show them these terms so they
know their rights.
We protect your rights with a two-step method: (1) we copyright
the library, and (2) we offer you this license, which gives you legal
permission to copy, distribute and/or modify the library.
To protect each distributor, we want to make it very clear that
there is no warranty for the free library. Also, if the library is mod-
ified by someone else and passed on, the recipients should know
that what they have is not the original version, so that the origi-
nal author's reputation will not be affected by problems that
might be introduced by others.
Finally, software patents pose a constant threat to the existence
of any free program. We wish to make sure that a company can-
not effectively restrict the users of a free program by obtaining a
restrictive license from a patent holder. Therefore, we insist that
any patent license obtained for a version of the library must be
consistent with the full freedom of use specified in this license.
Most GNU software, including some libraries, is covered by the
ordinary GNU General Public License. This license, the GNU
Lesser General Public License, applies to certain designated
libraries, and is quite different from the ordinary General Public
License. We use this license for certain libraries in order to per-
mit linking those libraries into non-free programs.
When a program is linked with a library, whether statically or
using a shared library, the combination of the two is legally
speaking a combined work, a derivative of the original library. The
ordinary General Public License therefore permits such linking
only if the entire combination fits its criteria of freedom. The
Lesser General Public License permits more lax criteria for linking
other code with the library.
We call this license the "Lesser" General Public License because
it does Less to protect the user's freedom than the ordinary
General Public License. It also provides other free software devel-
opers Less of an advantage over competing non-free programs.
These disadvantages are the reason we use the ordinary General
Public License for many libraries. However, the Lesser license pro-
vides advantages in certain special circumstances.
For example, on rare occasions, there may be a special need to
encourage the widest possible use of a certain library, so that it
becomes a de-facto standard. To achieve this, non-free programs
must be allowed to use the library. A more frequent case is that
a free library does the same job as widely used non-free libraries.
In this case, there is little to gain by limiting the free library to free
software only, so we use the Lesser General Public License.
In other cases, permission to use a particular library in non-free
programs enables a greater number of people to use a large body
of free software. For example, permission to use the GNU C
Library in non-free programs enables many more people to use
the whole GNU operating system, as well as its variant, the
GNU/Linux operating system.
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
Version 2.1, February 1999
APPENDIX
125
Although the Lesser General Public License is Less protective of
the users' freedom, it does ensure that the user of a program that
is linked with the Library has the freedom and the wherewithal to
run that program using a modified version of the Library.
The precise terms and conditions for copying, distribution and
modification follow. Pay close attention to the difference between
a "work based on the library" and a "work that uses the library".
The former contains code derived from the library, whereas the
latter must be combined with the library in order to run.
GNU LESSER GENERAL PUBLIC LICENSE
TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR COPYING, DISTRIBUTION
AND MODIFICATION
0. This license agreement applies to any software library or other
program which contains a notice placed by the copyright hold-
er or other authorized party saying it may be distributed
under the terms of this Lesser General Public License (also
called “this license”). Each license is addressed as "you".
A “library” means a collection of software functions and/or
data prepared so as to be conveniently linked with application
programs (which use some of those functions and data) to
form executables.
The “Library”, below, refers to any such software library or work
which has been distributed under these terms. A “work based
on the Library” means either the Library or any derivative work
under copyright law: that is to say, a work containing the
library or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications
and/or translated straightforwardly into another language.
(Hereinafter, translation is included without limitation in the
term “modification”.)
“Source code” for a work means the preferred form of the
work for making modifications to it. For a library, complete
source code means all the source code for all modules it con-
tains, plus any associated interface definition files, plus the
scripts used to control compilation and installation of the
library.
Activities other than copying, distribution and modification
are not covered by this license; they are outside its scope.
The act of running a program using the Library is not restrict-
ed, and output from such a program is covered only if its con-
tents constitute a work based on the library (independent of
the use of the Library in a tool for writing it). Whether that is
true depends on what the library does and what the program
that uses the library does.
1. You may copy and distribute verbatim copies of the library's
complete source code as you receive it, in any medium, pro-
vided that you conspicuously and appropriately publish on
each copy an appropriate copyright notice and disclaimer of
warranty; keep intact all the notices that refer to this license
and to the absence of any warranty; and distribute a copy of
this license along with the Library.
You may charge a fee for the physical act of transferring a
copy, and you may at your option offer warranty protection in
exchange for a fee.
2. You may modify your copy or copies of the Library or any
portion of it, thus forming a work based on the Library, and
copy and distribute such modifications or work under the
terms of section 1 above, provided that you also meet all of
these conditions:
a) The modified work must itself be a software library.
b) You must cause the files modified to carry prominent
notices stating that you changed the files and the date of
any change.
c) You must cause the whole of the work to be licensed at no
charge to all third parties under the terms of this license.
d) If a facility in the modified Library refers to a function or a
table of data to be supplied by an application program that
uses the facility, other than as an argument passed when
the facility is invoked, then you must make a good faith
effort to ensure that, in the event an application does not
supply such function or table, the facility still operates, and
performs whatever part of its purpose remains meaningful.
(For example, a function in a library to compute square roots
has a purpose that is entirely well-defined independent of the
application. Therefore, Subsection 2d requires that any appli-
cation-supplied function or table used by this function must be
optional: if the application does not supply it, the square root
function must still compute square roots.)
These requirements apply to the modified work as a whole. If
identifiable sections of that work are not derived from the
library, and can be reasonably considered independent and
separate works in themselves, then this license, and its terms,
do not apply to those sections when you distribute them as
separate works. But when you distribute the same sections as
part of a whole which is a work based on the library, the dis-
tribution of the whole must be on the terms of this license,
whose permissions for other licenses extend to the entire
whole, and thus to each and every part regardless of who
wrote it.
Thus, it is not the intent of this section to claim rights or con-
test your rights to work written entirely by you; rather, the
intent is to exercise the right to control the distribution of
derivative or collective works based on the library.
In addition, mere aggregation of another work not based on
the library with the library (or with a work based on the
library) on a volume of a storage or distribution medium does
not bring the other work under the scope of this license.
APPENDIX
126
APPENDIX
3. You may opt to apply the terms of the ordinary GNU General
Public License instead of this License to a given copy of the
Library. To do this, you must alter all the notices that refer to
this License, so that they refer to the ordinary GNU General
Public License, version 2, instead of to this License. (If a newer
version than version 2 of the ordinary GNU General Public
License has appeared, then you can specify that version
instead if you wish.) Do not make any other change in these
notices.
Once this change is made in a given copy, it is irreversible for
that copy, so the ordinary GNU General Public License applies
to all subsequent copies and derivative works made from that
copy.
This option is useful when you wish to copy part of the code
of the library into a program that is not a library.
4. You may copy and distribute the library (or a portion or deriv-
ative of it, under Section 2) in object code or executable form
under the terms of Sections 1 and 2 above provided that you
accompany it with the complete corresponding machine-
readable source code, which must be distributed under the
terms of sections 1 and 2 above on a medium customarily
used for software interchange.
If distribution of object code is made by offering access to
copy from a designated place, then offering equivalent access
to copy the source code from the same place satisfies the
requirement to distribute the source code, even though third
parties are not compelled to copy the source along with the
object code.
5. A program that contains no derivative of any portion of the
Library, but is designed to work with the Library by being
compiled or linked with it, is called a “work that uses the
Library”. Such a work, in isolation, is not a derivative work of
the Library, and therefore falls outside the scope of this
license.
However, linking a “work that uses the library” with the Library
creates an executable that is a derivative of the Library
(because it contains portions of the library), rather than a
“work that uses the library”. The executable is therefore cov-
ered by this license. Section 6 states terms for distribution of
such executable.
When a “work that uses the library” uses material from a head-
er file that is part of the library, the object code for the work
may be a derivative work of the library even though the source
code is not.
Whether this is true is especially significant if the work can be
linked without the library, or if the work is itself a library. The
threshold for this to be true is not precisely defined by law.
If such an object file uses only numerical parameters, data
structure layouts and accessories, and small macros and small
inline functions (ten lines or less in length), then the use of
the object file is unrestricted, regardless of whether it is legal-
ly a derivative work. (Executable containing this object code
plus portions of the library will still fall under Section 6.)
Otherwise, if the work is a derivative of the library, you may
distribute the object code for the work under the terms of
Section 6. Any executable containing that work also fall under
Section 6, whether or not they are linked directly with the
library itself.
6. As an exception to the sections above, you may also combine
or link a "work that uses the library" with the library to pro-
duce a work containing portions of the library, and distribute
that work under terms of your choice, provided that the terms
permit modification of the work for the customer's own use
and reverse engineering for debugging such modifications.
You must give prominent notice with each copy of the work
that the library is used in it and that the Library and its use
are covered by this license. You must supply a copy of this
license. If the work during execution displays copyright
notices, you must include the copyright notice for the library
among them, as well as a reference directing the user to the
copy of this license. Also, you must do one of these things:
a) Accompany the work with the complete corresponding
machine-readable source code for the library including
whatever changes were used in the work (which must be
distributed under Sections 1 and 2 above); and, if the work
is an executable linked with the Library, with the complete
machine-readable “work that uses the Library”, as object
code and/or source code, so that the user can modify the
library and then relink to produce a modified executable
containing the modified library. (It is understood that the
user who changes the contents of definitions files in the
library will not necessarily be able to recompile the appli-
cation to use the modified definitions.)
b) Use a suitable shared library mechanism for linking with the
library. A suitable mechanism is one that (1) uses at run time
a copy of the library already present on the user’s computer
system, rather than copying library functions into the exe-
cutable, and (2) will operate properly with a modified version
of the library, if the user installs one, as long as the modified
version is interface-compatible with the version that the
work was made with.
c) Accompany the work with a written offer, valid for at least
three years, to give the same user the materials specified in
Subsection 6, above, for a charge no more than the cost of
performing this distribution.
d) If distribution of the work is made by offering access to
copy from a designated place, offer equivalent access to
copy the above specified materials from the same place.
e) Verify that the user has already received a copy of these
materials or that you have already sent this user a copy.
APPENDIX
127
For an executable, the required form of the "work that uses
the library" must include any data and utility programs need-
ed for reproducing the executable from it. However, as a spe-
cial exception, the materials to be distributed need not
include anything that is normally distributed (in either source
or binary form) with the major components (compiler, kernel,
and so on) of the operating system on which the executable
runs, unless that component itself accompanies the exe-
cutable.
It may happen that this requirement contradicts the license
restrictions of other proprietary libraries that do not normal-
ly accompany the operating system. Such a contradiction
means you cannot use both them and the library together in
an executable that you distribute.
7. You may place library facilities that are a work based on the
library side-by-side in a single library together with other
library facilities not covered by this license, and distribute
such a combined library, provided that the separate distribu-
tion of the work based on the Library and of the other library
facilities is otherwise permitted, and provided that you do
these two things:
a) Accompany the combined library with a copy of the same
work based on the Library, uncombined with any other
library facilities. This must be distributed under the terms
of the sections above.
b) Give prominent notice with the combined library of the
fact that part of it is a work based on the library, and
explaining where to find the accompanying uncombined
form of the same work.
8. You may not copy, modify, sublicense, link with, or distribute
the library except as expressly provided under this license.
Any attempt otherwise to copy, modify, sublicense, link with,
or distribute the library is void, and will automatically termi-
nate your rights under this license. However, parties who have
received copies, or rights, from you under this license will not
have their licenses terminated so long as such parties remain
in full compliance.
9. You are not required to accept this license, since you have not
signed it. However, nothing else grants you permission to mod-
ify or distribute the library or its derivative works. These
actions are prohibited by law if you do not accept this license.
Therefore, by modifying or distributing the library (or any work
based on the library), you indicate your acceptance of this
license to do so, and all its terms and conditions for copying,
distributing or modifying the library or works based on it.
10.Each time you redistribute the library (or any work based on
the Library), the recipient automatically receives a license
from the original licensor to copy, distribute, link with or mod-
ify the library subject to these terms and conditions. You may
not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise
of the rights granted herein.
You are not responsible for enforcing compliance by third
parties with this license.
11. If, as a consequence of a court judgment or allegation of
patent infringement or for any other reason (not limited to
patent issues), conditions are imposed on you (whether by
court order, agreement or otherwise) that contradict the con-
ditions of this license, they do not excuse you from the con-
ditions of this license. If you cannot distribute so as to satis-
fy simultaneously your obligations under this license and any
other pertinent obligations, then as a consequence you may
not distribute the library at all. For example, if a patent license
would not permit royalty-free redistribution of the library by
all those who receive copies directly or indirectly through
you, then the only way you could satisfy both it and this
license would be to refrain entirely from distribution of the
library.
If any portion of this section is held invalid or unenforceable
under any particular circumstance, the balance of the section
is intended to apply, and the section as a whole is intended to
apply in other circumstances.
It is not the purpose of this section to induce you to infringe
any patents or other property right claims or to contest valid-
ity of any such claims; this section has the sole purpose of
protecting the integrity of the free software distribution sys-
tem which is implemented by public license practices. Many
people have made generous contributions to the wide range
of software distributed through that system in reliance on
consistent application of that system; it is up to the
author/donor to decide if he or she is willing to distribute
software through any other system and a license cannot
impose that choice.
This section is intended to make thoroughly clear what is
believed to be a consequence of the rest of this license.
12.If the distribution and/or use of the library is restricted in cer-
tain countries either by patents or by copyrighted interfaces,
the original copyright holder who places the library under this
license may add an explicit geographical distribution limitation
excluding those countries, so that distribution is permitted
only in or among countries not thus excluded. In such case,
this license incorporates the limitation as if written in the body
of this license.
13.The Free Software Foundation may publish revised and/or
new versions of the Lesser General Public License from time to
time. Such new versions will be similar in spirit to the present
version, but may differ in detail to address new problems or
concerns.
Each version is given a distinguishing version number. If the
library specifies a version number of this license which applies
to it and “any later version”, you have the option of following
the terms and conditions either of that version or of any later
version published by the Free Software Foundation.
APPENDIX
128
APPENDIX
If the library does not specify a license version number, you
may choose any version ever published by the Free Software
Foundation.
14.If you wish to incorporate parts of the library into other free
programs whose distribution conditions are incompatible with
these, write to the author to ask for permission. For software
which is copyrighted by the Free Software Foundation, write
to the Free Software Foundation; we sometimes make excep-
tions for this. Our decision will be guided by the two goals of
preserving the free status of all derivatives of our free software
and of promoting the sharing and reuse of software generally.
NO WARRANTY
15.BECAUSE THE LIBRARY IS LICENSED FREE OF CHARGE,
THERE IS NO WARRANTY FOR THE LIBRARY, TO THE
EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. EXCEPT WHEN
OTHERWISE STATED IN WRITING THE COPYRIGHT HOLD-
ERS AND/OR OTHER PARTIES PROVIDE THE LIBRARY "AS
IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND, EITHER
EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED
TO, THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY
AND FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE. THE ENTIRE
RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFORMANCE OF THE
LIBRARY IS WITH YOU. SHOULD THE LIBRARY PROVE
DEFECTIVE, YOU ASSUME THE COST OF ALL NECESSARY
SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
16.IN NO EVENT UNLESS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OR
AGREED TO IN WRITING WILL ANY COPYRIGHT HOLDER,
OR ANY OTHER PARTY WHO MAY MODIFY AND/OR
REDISTRIBUTE THE LIBRARY AS PERMITTED ABOVE, BE
LIABLE TO YOU FOR DAMAGES, INCLUDING ANY GENERAL,
SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES
ARISING OUT OF THE USE OR INABILITY TO USE THE
LIBRARY (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF DATA
OR DATA BEING RENDERED INACCURATE OR LOSSES SUS-
TAINED BY YOU OR THIRD PARTIES OR A FAILURE OF THE
LIBRARY TO OPERATE WITH ANY OTHER SOFTWARE),
EVEN IF SUCH HOLDER OR OTHER PARTY HAS BEEN
ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
END OF TERMS AND CONDITIONS
How to apply these terms to your new libraries
If you develop a new library, and you want it to be of the great-
est possible use to the public, we recommend making it free soft-
ware that everyone can redistribute and change. You can do so
by permitting redistribution under these terms (or, alternatively,
under the terms of the ordinary General Public License).
To apply these terms, attach the following notices to the library.
It is safest to attach them to the start of each source file to most
effectively convey the exclusion of warranty; and each file should
have at least the “copyright” line and a pointer to where the full
notice is found.
one line to give the library's name and a brief idea of what it does.

3. Distribution Obligations.
3.1. Application of license.
The modifications which You create or to which you con-
tribute are governed by the terms of this license, including
without limitation section 2.2. The source code version of
covered code may be distributed only under the terms of
this license or a future version of this license released
under section 6.1, and you must include a copy of this
license with every copy of the source code you distribute.
You may not offer or impose any terms on any source code
version that alters or restricts the applicable version of
this license or the recipients' rights hereunder. However,
you may include an additional document offering the
additional rights described in section 3.5.
3.2. Availability of source code.
Any modification which you create or to which you con-
tribute must be made available in source code form under
the terms of this license either on the same media as an
executable version or via an accepted electronic distribu-
tion mechanism to anyone to whom you made an exe-
cutable version available; and if made available via elec-
tronic distribution mechanism, must remain available for at
least twelve (12) months after the date it initially became
available, or at least six (6) months after a subsequent
version of that particular modification has been made
available to such recipients. You are responsible for ensur-
ing that the source code version remains available even if
the electronic distribution mechanism is maintained by a
third party.
3.3. Description of modifications.
You must cause all covered code to which you contribute to
contain a file documenting the changes You made to create
that covered code and the date of any change. You must
include a prominent statement that the modification is
derived, directly or indirectly, from original code provided by
the initial developer and including the name of the initial
developer in (a) the source code, and (b) in any notice in an
executable version or related documentation in which you
describe the origin or ownership of the covered code.
3.4. Intellectual property matters
(a) Third party claims.
If contributor has knowledge that a license under a third
party's intellectual property rights is required to exercise
the rights granted by such contributor under sections 2.1
or 2.2, contributor must include a text file with the source
code distribution titled "LEGAL" which describes the claim
and the party making the claim in sufficient detail that a
recipient will know whom to contact. If contributor obtains
such knowledge after the modification is made available as
described in section 3.2, contributor shall promptly modi-
fy the LEGAL file in all copies contributor makes available
thereafter and shall take other steps (such as notifying
appropriate mailing lists or newsgroups) reasonably calcu-
lated to inform those who received the covered code that
new knowledge has been obtained.
(b) Contributor APIs.
If contributor's modifications include an application
programming interface and contributor has knowledge of
patent licenses which are reasonably necessary to implement
that API, contributor must also include this information in
the LEGAL file.
APPENDIX
131
(c) Representations.
contributor represents that, except as disclosed pursuant
to section 3.4(a) above, contributor believes that contributor's
modifications are contributor's original creation(s)
and/or contributor has sufficient rights to grant the rights
conveyed by this license.
3.5. Required notices.
You must duplicate the notice in exhibit A in each file of
the source code. If it is not possible to put such notice in
a particular source code file due to its structure, then You
must include such notice in a location (such as a relevant
directory) where a user would be likely to look for such a
notice. If You created one or more modification(s), you
may add your name as a contributor to the notice
described in exhibit A. you must also duplicate this license
in any documentation for the source code where You
describe recipients' rights or ownership rights relating to
covered code. You may choose to offer, and to charge a
fee for, warranty, support, indemnity or liability obligations
to one or more recipients of covered code. However, you
may do so only on your own behalf, and not on behalf of
the Initial developer or any contributor. You must make it
absolutely clear than any such warranty, support, indemni-
ty or liability obligation is offered by you alone, and You
hereby agree to indemnify the Initial developer and every
contributor for any liability incurred by the Initial develop-
er or such contributor as a result of warranty, support,
indemnity or liability terms you offer.
3.6. Distribution of executable versions.
You may distribute covered code in executable form only if
the requirements of section 3.1-3.5 have been met for
that covered code, and if you include a notice stating that
the source code version of the covered code is available
under the terms of this license, including a description of
how and where you have fulfilled the obligations of section
3.2. The notice must be conspicuously included in any
notice in an executable version, related documentation or
collateral in which you describe recipients' rights relating
to the covered code. You may distribute the executable
version of covered code or ownership rights under a
license of your choice, which may contain terms different
from this license, provided that you are in compliance with
the terms of this license and that the license for the exe-
cutable version does not attempt to limit or alter the recip-
ient's rights in the source code version from the rights set
forth in this license. If you distribute the executable ver-
sion under a different license you must make it absolutely
clear that any terms which differ from this license are
offered by you alone, not by the Initial developer or any
contributor. You hereby agree to indemnify the initial
developer and every contributor for any liability incurred
by the initial developer or such contributor as a result of
any such terms You offer.
3.7. Larger works.
You may create a larger work by combining covered code
with other code not governed by the terms of this license
and distribute the larger work as a single product. In such
a case, you must make sure the requirements of this
license are fulfilled for the covered code.
4. Inability to comply due to statute or regulation.
If it is impossible for you to comply with any of the terms
of this license with respect to some or all of the covered
code due to statute, judicial order, or regulation then you
must: (a) comply with the terms of this license to the max-
imum extent possible; and (b) describe the limitations and
the code they affect. Such description must be included in
the LEGAL file described in section 3.4 and must be
included with all distributions of the source code. Except
to the extent prohibited by statute or regulation, such
description must be sufficiently detailed for a recipient of
ordinary skill to be able to understand it.
5. Application of this license.
This license applies to code to which the initial developer has
attached the notice in exhibit A and to related covered code.
6. Versions of the license.
6.1. New versions.
Netscape communications corporation (“Netscape”) may
publish revised and/or new versions of the license from
time to time. Each version will be given a distinguishing
version number.
6.2. Effect of new versions.
Once covered code has been published under a particular
version of the license, you may always continue to use it
under the terms of that version. You may also choose to
use such covered code under the terms of any subsequent
version of the license published by netscape. No one
other than netscape has the right to modify the terms
applicable to covered code created under this license.
6.3. Derivative works.
If You create or use a modified version of this license
(which you may only do in order to apply it to code which
is not already covered code governed by this license), You
must (a) rename Your license so that the phrases
"Mozilla", "MOZILLAPL", "MOZPL", "Netscape", "MPL",
"NPL" or any confusingly similar phrase do not appear in
your license (except to note that your license differs from
this license) and (b) otherwise make it clear that Your
version of the license contains terms which differ from the
Mozilla Public license and netscape Public License. (Filling
in the name of the initial developer, original code or con-
tributor in the notice described in exhibit A shall not of
themselves be deemed to be modifications of this license.)

KIND, EITHER EXPRESSED OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING,
WITHOUT LIMITATION, WARRANTIES THAT THE COV-
ERED CODE IS FREE OF DEFECTS, MERCHANTABLE, FIT
FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR NON-INFRINGING.
THE ENTIRE RISK AS TO THE QUALITY AND PERFOR-
MANCE OF THE COVERED CODE IS WITH YOU.
SHOULD ANY COVERED CODE PROVE DEFECTIVE IN
ANY RESPECT, YOU (NOT THE INITIAL DEVELOPER OR
ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR) ASSUME THE COST OF
ANY NECESSARY SERVICING, REPAIR OR CORRECTION.
THIS DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTY CONSTITUTES AN
ESSENTIAL PART OF THIS LICENSE. NO USE OF ANY
COVERED CODE IS AUTHORIZED HEREUNDER EXCEPT
UNDER THIS DISCLAIMER.
8. TERMINATION.
8.1. This license and the rights granted hereunder will terminate
automatically if you fail to comply with terms herein and
fail to cure such breach within 30 days of becoming aware
of the breach. All sublicenses to the covered code which
are properly granted shall survive any termination of this
license. Provisions which, by their nature, must remain in
effect beyond the termination of this license shall survive.
8.2. If you initiate litigation by asserting a patent infringement
claim (excluding declatory judgment actions) against ini-
tial developer or a contributor (the initial developer or
contributor against whom you file such action is referred
to as “Participant”) alleging that:
(a) such participant's contributor version directly or indi-
rectly infringes any patent, then any and all rights
granted by such participant to you under sections 2.1
and/or 2.2 of this license shall, upon 60 days notice
from Participant terminate prospectively, unless if within
60 days after receipt of notice you either: (i) agree in
writing to pay participant a mutually agreeable reasonable
royalty for your past and future use of modifications
made by such participant, or (ii) withdraw your litigation
claim with respect to the contributor version against
such participant. If within 60 days of notice, a reasonable
royalty and payment arrangement are not mutually
agreed upon in writing by the parties or the litigation
claim is not withdrawn, the rights granted by partici-
pant to you under sections 2.1 and/or 2.2 automati-
cally terminate at the expiration of the 60 day notice
period specified above.
(b) any software, hardware, or device, other than such par-
ticipant's contributor Version, directly or indirectly
infringes any patent, then any rights granted to You by
such participant under sections 2.1(b) and 2.2(b) are
revoked effective as of the date you first made, used,
sold, distributed, or had made, modifications made by
that participant.
8.3. If you assert a patent infringement claim against partici-
pant alleging that such participant's contributor version
directly or indirectly infringes any patent where such claim
is resolved (such as by license or settlement) prior to the
initiation of patent infringement litigation, then the rea-
sonable value of the licenses granted by such participant
under sections 2.1 or 2.2 shall be taken into account in
determining the amount or value of any payment or
license.
8.4. In the event of termination under sections 8.1 or 8.2
above, all end user license agreements (excluding distributors
and resellers) which have been validly granted by you or
any distributor hereunder prior to termination shall survive
termination.
9. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY.
UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL
THEORY, WHETHER TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE),
CONTRACT, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL YOU, THE INITIAL
DEVELOPER, ANY OTHER CONTRIBUTOR, OR ANY DIS-
TRIBUTOR OF COVERED CODE,OR ANY SUPPLIER OF
ANY OF SUCH PARTIES, BE LIABLE TO ANY PERSON FOR
ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUEN-
TIAL DAMAGES OF ANY CHARACTER INCLUDING, WITH-
OUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF GOODWILL,
WORK STOPPAGE, COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNC-
TION, OR ANY AND ALL OTHER COMMERCIAL DAM-
AGES OR LOSSES, EVEN IF SUCH PARTY SHALL HAVE
BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAM-
AGES. THIS LIMITATION OF LIABILITY SHALL NOT APPLY
TO LIABILITY FOR DEATH OR PERSONAL INJURY RESULT-
ING FROM SUCH PARTY'S NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT
APPLICABLE LAW PROHIBITS SUCH LIMITATION. SOME
JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR
LIMITATION OF INCIDENTAL OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAM-
AGES, SO THIS EXCLUSION AND LIMITATION MAY NOT
APPLY TO YOU.
10. U.S. GOVERNMENT END USERS.
The covered code is a "commercial item," as that term is
defined in 48 C.F.R. 2.101 (Oct. 1995), consisting of
"commercial computer software" and "commercial computer
software documentation," as such terms are used in 48
C.F.R. 12.212 (Sept. 1995). Consistent with 48 C.F.R.
12.212 and 48 C.F.R. 227.7202-1 through 227.7202-4
(June 1995), all U.S. Government end users acquire cov-
ered code with only those rights set forth herein.
APPENDIX

11. MISCELLANEOUS.
This license represents the complete agreement concerning
subject matter hereof. If any provision of this license is
held to be unenforceable, such provision shall be reformed
only to the extent necessary to make it enforceable. This
License shall be governed by California law provisions
(except to the extent applicable law, if any, provides oth-
erwise), excluding its conflict-of-law provisions. With
respect to disputes in which at least one party is a citizen
of, or an entity chartered or registered to do business in
the united states of america, any litigation relating to this
License shall be subject to the jurisdiction of the federal
courts of the northern district of california, with venue
lying in santa clara county, california, with the losing party
responsible for costs, including without limitation, court
costs and reasonable attorneys' fees and expenses. The
application of the united nations convention on contracts
for the International sale of goods is expressly excluded.
Any law or regulation which provides that the language of
a contract shall be construed against the drafter shall not
apply to this license.
12. RESPONSIBILITY FOR CLAIMS.
As between initial developer and the contributors, each
party is responsible for claims and damages arising, directly
or indirectly, out of its utilization of rights under this
license and you agree to work with initial developer and
contributors to distribute such responsibility on an equitable
basis. Nothing herein is intended or shall be deemed to
constitute any admission of liability.
13. MULTIPLE-LICENSED CODE.
Initial developer may designate portions of the covered
code as "Multiple-Licensed". "Multiple-Licensed" means
that the initial developer permits you to utilize portions of
the covered code under your choice of the NPL or the
alternative licenses, if any, specified by the initial developer
in the file described in exhibit A.
