Connecting a recorder
NOTE
• About the MONITOR OUT terminals
The MONITOR OUT terminals cannot output the following
signals:
•Video signals input from the COMPONENT VIDEO terminal
•Video signals from a PC
•Digital video and audio signals from the HDMI terminals
• When watching images from a VCR connected to the panel’s
MONITOR OUT, select an input source (e.g., TV channel
reception) on the VCR other than an external input source.
Selecting an external input source may cause distorted
images or noise.
• Place the VCR in Standby when selecting TV programs to
record using the TV Guide On Screen™ system.
• Using MONITOR OUT may cause delays between the
speaker and AUDIO. If this delay occurs, try muting the
speakers on the Plasma Display. However, you may still
experience some delay between audio and video.
• The MONITOR OUT terminals cannot output any signals for
networked audio or video.
• If degraded picture quality is observed while viewing copy-
protected VOD movies connect the Plasma Display directly
to other TV sets. Do not connect through a VCR.
Connecting other audio equipment
The panel’s digital audio output terminal (optical) can output
Dolby Digital signals. Using an optical digital cable, connect
an AV receiver to the optical terminal on the rear of the Plasma
Display. This allows high-quality audio, such as during a digital
TV broadcast, to play.
If your AV receiver does not have a digital audio input terminal
(optical), connect MONITOR OUT (AUDIO) on the rear of the
Plasma Display to the audio input terminals on the AV receiver.
This method may cause sound delays between the speakers and
AUDIO. Try muting the speakers on the Plasma Display, however,
you may still experience a delay between audio and video.
NOTE
• When using the digital audio output terminal (optical), set
according to the AV receiver’s requirements. For more
information, refer to the AV receiver’s operating instructions.
Connecting an AV receiver
NOTE
• For details, refer to the audio device’s operating instructions.
• The audio accompanying the images shown on the display is
always output to the SUBWOOFER OUTPUT terminal.
• When signals are input from the HDMI terminals, no digital
or analog signals are output from the DIGITAL OUT terminal.
• Input signals from the Home Media Gallery may cause audio
delays between the speakers and OPTICAL. Try muting the
speakers on the Plasma Display; however, you may still
experience delays between audio and video.
