(Models VS-50111 and VS-60111 [4:3] only include Component Input 1.)

How Connections Affect the PIP and POP

To see a picture in the PIP or POP, you may

need to select an input source. If the only

input connected is ANT-A, then both the main

picture and the PIP/POP will be from that input

source. If other video equipment is connected,

you may be able to view these input sources

as the PIP/POP. When connecting your new

Mitsubishi bigscreen, it is important to

understand which main picture and PIP/POP

input sources can and cannot be used together.

Table 1 shows which inputs can and cannot be

used together and the limitations they may have.

If you press the INFO key it will display the

current Input, signal (480i, 480p, or 10800,

format, time, day and sleep time.

How Connections Affect the System 4 Home Theater IR Control

(Applicable for WS-55411, WS-65411 and WS-73411 only.)

The Mitsubishi System 4 Home Theater IR

Control is a special feature that makes it easier

to use your TV with a digital surround sound

AiV receiver. Once your equipment is properly

connected and set up, your TV and digital AiV

receiver will change inputs together to match

high resolution pictures with the proper

surround sound.

When you change inputs on your TV to watch

different video products, your TV will send

signals via your remote control and the infrared

emitters to your digital AiV receiver to change

inputs.

You will automatically hear the high quality

digital surround sound from digital products

like your DTV receiver and DVD player,

and high quality analog stereo or surround

sound from non-digital products like your

VCR.

Additionally, all IR remote signals from your

Mitsubishi remote or other manufacturer's

remote will be passed through your TV to

your AiV devices. Your AiV devices can

be hidden or behind cabinet doors and

controlled by pointing the remote at the TV.

Part I1: Installation

Warning: Do not leave stationary or letterbox images on the screen for

extended periods of time. Mix the types of pictures shown.

Uneven picture tube aging is NOT covered by your warranty.

The normal use of a TV should include

a mixture of TV picture types. The most

frequently used picture types should fill

the screen with constantly moving images

rather than stationary images or patterns.

Displaying the same stationary patterns over

extended period of time or displaying the

same stationary pattern frequently can leave

subtle but permanent ghost images. To avoid

this, mix your viewing pattern. Do not show

the same stationary image for more than 15%

of your total TV viewing in any given week.

Display constantly moving and changing

images that fill the screen whenever possible.

This projection TV uses picture tubes to

project the image to the screen. All picture

tubes age with use. As they age, their light

output is gradually reduced. Normal TV

pictures fill the screen with constantly

changing images. Under these conditions,

picture tubes age at an even rate across the

entire screen. This maintains a TV picture

that is evenly bright over the whole screen.

Stationary images or images that only partially

fill the screen (leaving black or colored bars

to fill the screen), when used over extended

periods of time or when viewed repeatedly,

can cause uneven aging of the phosphors and

leave subtle ghosts from the stationary images

in the picture.

Still or stationary images may be received

from broadcasters, cable channels, satellite

channels, DVD discs, video tapes, laser

discs, online services, webilnternet searching

devices, video games, and digital TV

tuner/converter boxes. Examples of these

types of images can be, but are not limited to

the following:

[] Letterbox top/bottom black bars:

shown at the top and bottom of the TV

screen when you watch a widescreen

(16:9) movie on a standard (4:3) TV.

Side bar images: solid bars shown on

each side of an image when watching a

standard (4:3) program on a widescreen

(16:9) TV.

Stock-market report bars: ticker running

at the bottom of the TV screen.

Shopping channel Iogos & pricing displays:

bright graphics that are shown constantly or

repeatedly in the same location.

Video game patterns and scoreboards

Bright station Iogos: moving or low-contrast

graphics are less likely to cause uneven aging

of the picture tubes.

Online (Internet) websites: or any other

stationary or repetitive computer style images.

Your Mitsubishi TV has three picture tubes

which are aligned to properly converge the

projected light beams on the screen. Each

picture tube projects a single color of red, blue

or green. During production, your TV was

carefully adjusted to properly align these colors.

As a special feature, you have the ability to

adjust the red and blue light beams in reference

to the fixed green light beam. This process

is called convergence. Convergence aligns

the entire screen at once. Select either Red

Convergence or Blue Convergence to begin

alignment.

Video

€= Contrast provides a slider to adjust the

white-to-black level. Low contrast shows a

variety of shades in darker images, while

high contrast shows darker images more

uniformly black and makes colors appear

more vibrant.

Brightness provides a slider to adjust the

overall brightness of the picture.

Sharpness provides a slider to adjust the

detail and clarity.

[] Color provides a slider to adjust the color

intensity.

Tint provides a slider to adjust the

proportion of red to green.

Color Temp (Color Temperature) allows

you to adjust how white images are

displayed. Your choices are:

• Low 6500K or Low (for DTV): White

images will have a warm cast to them.

This adjustment is an average and can

vary due to ambient room lighting, video

scene brightness and the TV's age.

The Low 6500K represents the 6500K

industry standard for NTSC (non-DTV)

pictures.

•Medium: White images will be balanced

between the Low (warm) and High (cool)

settings.

• High: White images will have a cool cast

to them. This setting may provide the

most realistic picture under bright lighting.

Video Noise reduces minor noise

(graininess) in the broadcast or input signal.

Film Mode (Automatic)

Video media uses a video camera created at

30 frames per second. Film media uses a

film camera created at 24 frames per second.

Examples of video media are live TV broadcast

such as news, special events, or video taped

programs. Examples of film media are motion

pictures, made-for-TV movies, and many prime

time programs. Filmed media is converted by

the broadcaster or home video company to

30 frames per second to match TV or video

standards. This conversion can leave subtle

"picture artifacts" or conversion errors.

The settings are On and Off. If you select

On, the system automatically detects if the

signal source is Film and corrects for conversion

errors. If you select Off, the system will never

correct for conversion errors.

Velocity Scanning Modulation

(VSM) Sharpness

When turned On selected image outlines are

emphasized, resulting in sharper images.

The default is On. When turned Off, the velocity

scanning modulation function is prevented.

Part II1: Setup

Warning: Do not leave stationary or letterbox images on-screen for

extended periods of time. Mix the types of pictures shown.

Uneven picture tube aging is NOT covered by your warranty.

The normal use of a TV should include a

mixture of TV picture types. The most

frequently used picture types should fill the

screen with constantly moving images rather

than stationary images or patterns. Displaying

the same stationary patterns over extended

periods of time or displaying the same

stationary pattern frequently may leave a

subtle but permanent ghost image. To avoid

this, mix your viewing pattern. Do not show

the same stationary image for more than 15%

of your total TV viewing in any given week.

Display constantly moving and changing

images that fill the screen whenever possible.

This projection TV uses picture tubes to project

the image to the screen. All picture tubes

age with use. As they age, their light output

is gradually reduced. Normal TV pictures fill

the screen with constantly changing images.

Under these conditions, picture tubes age at

an even rate across the entire screen. This

maintains a TV picture that is evenly bright

over the whole screen. Stationary images

or images that only partially fill the screen

(leaving black or colored bars to fill the screen),

when used over extended periods of time or

when viewed repeatedly may cause uneven

aging of the phosphors and leave subtle

ghosts of the stationary images in the picture.

Still or stationary images may be received

from broadcasters, cable channels, satellite

channels, DVD discs, video tapes, laser

discs, on-line services, webilnternet

searching devices, video games, and digital

TV tuner/converter boxes. Examples of these

types of images can be, but are not limited to

the following:

[] Letterbox top/bottom black bars:

shown at the top and bottom of the TV

screen when you watch a widescreen

(16:9) movie on a standard (4:3) TV.

Side bar images: solid bars shown

on each side of an image when

watching a standard (4:3) program on

a widescreen (16:9) TV.

Stock-market report bars: ticker

running at the bottom of the TV

screen.

Shopping channel Iogos & pricing

displays: bright graphics that are

shown constantly or repeatedly in the

same location.

Video game patterns and scoreboards

Bright station Iogos: moving or

low-contrast graphics are less likely

to cause uneven aging of the picture

tubes.

Online (Internet) websites: or any other

stationary or repetitive computer style

images.

The Mitsubishi Home Theater IR System

Control is a special feature that makes it easier

to use your TV with a Mitsubishi digital AiV

receiver. Once your equipment is properly

connected and set up, your TV and Mitsubishi

digital AiV receiver will change inputs together,

to match high resolution pictures with the proper

surround sound. See How Connections Affect

the System 4 Home Theater IR Control, Pages

14-15, for installation instructions.

When you change inputs on your TV to watch

different video products, your TV will send

signals via the infrared emitter to your Mitsubishi

digital AiV receiver and will also change inputs

to hear the sound from that product. You

will automatically hear the high quality digital

surround sound from digital products like your

6:9 Display Formats (Picture Shape)

Wide Screen Models Only

Your Mitsubishi widescreen TV (also known as 16:9 TV) reflects several types of display formats

(picture shape) available for HDTV and many DVD images.

By pressing FORMAT on the TV remote control, you may select from six available formats:

g Standard - default format for DTV and Component Input displays a full-screen format. The

Standard format displays Anamorphic DVDs that have the 1.78:1 or 1.85:1 aspect ratios.

However, Anamorphic DVDs that have the 2.35:1 aspect ratio still display black bars at the top

and bottom of the screen, while narrow (4:3) images are stretched evenly from side to side.

[] Expand (480i/480p)- enlarges the picture, cropping some of the image at the top and bottom.

The Expand format is useful to reduce the letterbox top and bottom bars of non-Anamorphic

DVDs or to correct narrow 4:3 images that have been stretched in the Standard format.

Note: This format is not available in the 1080i format.

[] Expand (1080i) - enlarges the picture, cropping some of the image on both sides. This Expand

format is useful to remove or reduce black side bars on HD broadcasts of 4:3 images with

black bars (See page 63).

[] Zoom - enlarges the picture, cropping some of the image at each side, top and bottom. The

Zoom format is useful to remove or reduce the black top and bottom bars on Anamorphic

DVDs with 2.35:1 aspect ratio.

Note: This format is not available in the 1080i signal.

[] Stretched - is the default format for ANT-A and Ant-B, and Inputs 1-3. The Stretched format

stretches narrow 4:3 images across the screen, however, there is less stretch in the center

than the sides. The Stretched format allows the entire narrow image to be displayed across

Appendix A: Bypassing the V-Chip Lock

Bypassing the V-Chip Lock

After you set the lock, you need your

passcode to view a V-Chip locked program,

view the locked TV, cancel the lock, or enter

the V-Chip lock menus.

If you forget your passcode, you can

view the locked TV without entering your

passcode. This is done by pressing the

number 9 and QV buttons on the remote

TV control at the same time, when your

password is requested. This process

temporarily unlocks the TV.

When entering the V-Chip Lock menu, this

process deletes your old passcode and

prompts you to enter a new passcode.

Appendix B: High Definition Input Connection Compatibility

Component-1 and Component-2 Inputs

These inputs are compatible with most

standard DVD and DTV signals with component

video outputs. Compatible DTV signals are

SDTV 480i, 480p, and HDTV 1080i.

All other DTV signals, such as 720p, need to be

converted by the DTV receiver to one of the

compatible signal types. Please check the DTV

receiver specifications before connecting.

DTV Input

These inputs are compatible with most

standard DVD and DTV signals with component

video outputs. Compatible DTV signals are

SDTV 480i, 480p, and HDTV 1080i.

All other DTV signals, such as 720p, need to be

converted by the DTV receiver to one of the

compatible signal types. Please check the DTV

receiver specifications before connecting.

This input is also compatible with some DTV

receivers using RGB with "sync on green" or

RGB with "separate H and V sync." Industry

standards for DTV RGB signals systems,

synchronization, timing, and signal strengths are

not currently established. These inputs will

not be compatible with all DTV receivers that

offer RGB. If your DTV receiver offers both

DTV component video signals and DTV RGB

signals, Mitsubishi suggests you use the DTV

component video signals. Please check the

DTV receiver specifications before connecting.
