Part 2: Why RCA Scenium DLP TM is better?
DLP TM is just part of the story. You have chosen to embark on |he next generation of TV viewing-- Hr)TV. There are many
technological advancements that make HDTV better |han analog TV, but them are basically three things about HDTV that
bring you a superior viewing experience: (1) resolution, (2) aspect ratio, and (3) digital signal and sound.

A pLxel (which

A regular, analog television (called analog) only has a resolution of about 200,000 pb_els (480 vertical pLxels x 440 horizontal
pixels = 211,200 pLxels). The HDTV fbrmat is capable of morn than 2 million pLxels (1,920 x 1,080 = 2,073,600).
Morn pixels equals morn detail. In summary,

Aspect Ratio
Aspect ratio is simply the width and height of the picture. Regular "INs use a
4 x 3 (also written 4:3) aspect ratio, which means the picture is a little wider
than it is tall (a screen that is 20 inches wide is about 15 inches tall).
When/l_e standards were being developed fbr television broadcasting in
1941 by the NTSC (the National Television Standards Committee), it made
sense to adopt the 4 x 3 aspect ratio that/he film industry was using at that
time.
16:9 Aspect Ratio

As TVs dropped in price and people prospered in/he 1950s, the movie
industry had to find a way to get people out of their living rooms and back
to the movie theatres. That's when they created/lie
16 x 9 (also written 16:9)
aspect ratio (also called widescreeen format). When the standards tbr HDTV
were being developed by the ATSC (Advanced "Pelevision Standards
Committee), the 16 x 9 aspect ratio was chosen as the tbrmat for HDTV.
This widescreen tbrmat makes sense because it's much closer to/l_e way we
see. Our field of vision is actually much wider/hart tall because of our
peripheral vision. Not only is it closer to the way we see, but the pictures are
crisper and cleaner with more detail in/he close-up and panoramic views.

4:3 Aspect Ratio

Digital Signal and Sound
The analog television broadcast system that has been used in the United States fbr the past 50 years transmits signals as
electronic waves. These waves can suffer degradation as/he signal _avels to your home. Additionally, /he analog waves are
susceptible to interl_rence from planes passing overhead, weather, and household appliances.
Digital signals, in con_ast to analog signals, can be reproduced precisely because/he
images are transmit/ed and received
using the computer language of ls and 0s. Such precision yields a signal that is capable of displaying studio-quality picture
and Dolby Digital 5.1 channel sound.

Part 3: Other Key Features of owning

an RCA Scenium HDTV

There are other HDTVs on the market-- even some that use DLP technology. But your RCA Scenium HDTV has been
designed with features that will enhance your "IV viewing, and fbatures that provide flexibili/y to build on the digital

HDTV Tuner with QAM

RCA was the first to offer an integrated tuner with its HDTVs (no need fbr a set-top box to receive digital programming).
Now, we've gone one better-- your HDTV's tuner is ready fbr digital cable (no need fbr a cable box to view unscrambled,
digital cable, programming). The tuner is able to decode all 16 fbrmats of digital television broadcasts and it can interpret
digital cable signals because it includes the ability to decode QAM (Quadrature Amplitude Modulation) encoded
programming.

DVI-HDTV (Digital Visual Interface-High

Definition Television) Connector

DVI-HDTV is an uncompmssed,
high-speed digital visual interface designed to
deliver digital video in its native tk)rmat. It suppo_ls the overlay of highresolution graphics used by some program guides and interactive components.
Note: Remember to connect the left and right audio cables for Input 5
(DVI-HDTV) because the DVI-HDTV cable carries only the picture signal,
not the sound.
DTVLink® (Digital Television Link) Connectors
1-)TVLink uses a fbrmat better known to some as IEEE-1394 or FireWire®.
DTVLink is a compressed digital video input/output
ofl:ering an IEEE 1394-type
connection that meets/lie CEA specifications. This connection is a high-speed
and inexpensive way of interconnecting
1394 compliant consumer electronic
components. If your 1394 component has the DTVLink logo on it, it should
work with/llis "IV. You can use eidmr or both connectors to link your
components but don't connect the components in a loop.
Notes: Audio and video information is carried on a single wire.
The TV outputs audio/video through the 1394jack (labeled DTVLink) only
to a component that enforces video copy protection.

Digital Audio Out Jack and Optical Cable
The optical cable is used to connect an audio receiver with Dolby Digital or

that uses an optical cable input, you can use an optical cable to connect the TV
to that receiver tk)r the best sound quality.
Note: This TV's optical digital output jack fully complies with the
international
standard governing this type of jack (IEC958), and is
designed for connection to a Dolby Digital (AC-3 _ or PCM) receiver or
Dolby Digital (AC-3 or PCM) decode_ Older equipment, some of which is
not fully compliant with IEC958, may not be compatible with the Dolby
Digital bitstream. Such a connection using anything other than a Dolby

Component Video (Y.Pb*Pr) Jacks and Cables

Component Jacks

The Y, Pb, Pr jacks allow you to connect a component, such as a DVD player.
This connection provides excellent picture quality because the video is
separated into three signals. To ensure maximum picture quali/y, use three
video-grade cables tbr tile connection.
Note: Also, remember to connect the left and right audio cables because
the Y.Pb.Pr cables carry only the picture signal, not the sound.

S-Video Jacks and Cables
The S-Video (separate video) jacks provide better picture quality than die
regular video jacks because the color (chrominance, also called chroma) part of
die signal is separated from the black and white (luminance) part of the picture.

®
S-Video Jack

If a component you're connecting to your "IV (like a DVD player) has an
S-VIDEO jack and composite video, connect the component to the "IV with an
S-Video cable (not provided) tbr a better quali_y picture.
Note: Remember to connect the left and right audio cables because the
S-Video cable carries only the picture signal, not the sound.

Composite Audio/Video Jacks and Cables (RCA-type)
These jacks are used tbr most audio/video connections between components.
The audio/video iacks are olden color coded (yellow fbr video, red fbr right

Note: If your component has only one output for audio (mono), connect it
to the left (white L/Mono) audio jack on the TVand don't connect the
right (red) audio part of the cable.

RF Jacks and Coaxial Cables (F-type)

Adding

a Learned

Function

There are several things to consider

belk)re you begin the learning process:

•

You can't record a learned
function
to the fkJllowing buttons
on the "FV's remote control:
component
buttons (TV, VCR, DVD, SAT/CAB, AUX, and AUDIO), the CLEAR button, and the
LIGHT button.

•

Before adding a Learned Function, you must program this TV's remote control to operate that
component because programming/he
remote control erases all learned commands for that
component mode.

•

Do the learning process in low light areas because too much natural light or fluorescent light
might cause the learning lkmture to fail because the remote control functions are recorded
(learned) by sending infrared (IR) signals.

•

The TV's remote

and the original remote should be no more than 2 inches apart.

In order to record (learn) a fimction t¥om one remote to/he other, you must make sure the
Infi'ared (IR) transmitter of the original remote is t;acing the IR receiver on/he top of the laT's
remote (see illustration). To accomplish this, you may have to hold a remote in each hand
instead of laying both on the table.
The learned buttons are mode specific--if you add a button function from your DVD player's
remote control, you must press the DVD button fii:st before the learned fimction will work (in
"IV mode, the button where you've stored the learned timction will continue to work as it

About the Channel Banner
The Channel Banner appears when you press/he TV or INFO button on the remote. If an icon in the channel banner is
grayed out (dim), the fi:atum is not available. The tbllowing list describes the items on the Channel Banner screen (left to
right and top to bottom). Other displays that are not described here are self-explanatory.
Note: You may notice the size of the channel banner changes when you change channels. This is perfectly normal and
occurs because analog (NTSC)broadcasts and digital (ATSC)broadcasts use different formats. Your HDTV can display
both types and adjusts the picture accordingly.

How V-Chip Works for the USA and Canada
The V-Chip software reads a code that most broadcasters send with programs. That code tells the "IV sofiware
the program's age-based rating (TV-MA, TV-14, etc.) and content themes [(Violence (V), Adult Language (L),
etc.)]. If you have blocked/he
rating and/or content/heroes/hat
the program contains and the l_V is locked
and you tune to a program whose rating exceeds the rating limit you set, you will receive a message telling
you that the program is not approved tbr viewing.
Broadcasters are not required to provide conten_ themes, so programs received with no content/heroes
will only
be blocked if you block/heir age-based rating and the TV is locked. You can also block out programs/hat
have
been given a rating of "Not Rated," or "Exempt" and programs that are COl'Lsidered "unrated" with the V-Chip

1394 Recording
The 2-way 1394 DTVLink iacks enable you to connect a compatible Audio/Video Hard Disk Drive
(AVHDD) and/or a Digital VCR (DVCR) so you can record and play digital content. The
recommended
AVHDD component is model DVR10, available at your local RCA dealer or
www.rca.com. The DVR10 is an IEEE-1394 hard disk drive that includes time-shili l;eatures, such as
recording and pausing TV (digital signals only).
You should

know:

Only digital content can be recorded. Analog "IV programs

You can only record content if the IEEE-1394 component connected

When tile "IV is tuned to/he 1394 input channel and the remote is in
the 1W mode, you can use the remote tk)r some basic transport
controls, such as RECORD, STOP, FAST FORWARD, REVERSE, PAUSE,

Don't change channels when you are recording because recording
will automatically stop. However, you can tune to one of the TV's
Video Input Channels (fbr instance, if you want to watch a DVD or

default recording component (i.e., the component which records
when you press RECORD on the remote or set up a Record/Wake

If you have an AVHDD connected, put a check in the box fi)r auto

recorded and you can use instant replay, pause, etc.
Note: If you don't check the auto tuning box, pressing RECORD
