Regular Broadcasts
To receive regular broadcasts, follow these steps:
1. Plug the power cord into an AC outlet.
Note: The power cord has a polarized plug, one of the plug's blades is
wider than the other. If you do not have polarized outlets, have
one installed before using the TV/monitor.

TV/monitor.
3. Press TV/VCR until a channel number displays.

channels or cable channels coming from a separate cable box. Set the
switch to CATV if you connected the cable wire directly to the
TV/monitor without a cable box.
NOTE: The TV/CATV button has no effect when the TV/monitor is in
VIDEO mode. See "Monitor Operation."
5. If you set the TV/CATV switch to CATV, set the type of cable system you
have (STD, HRC, IRC). If you do not know what type of cable system you
have, contact your local cable company or choose the setting that
results in the best overall performance.
6. Choose the desired channel by entering a two-digit channel number (02,
for example) on the remote control's key pad, or pressing one of the
(CHANNEL) buttons until the desired channel number displays. See
"Programming the Tuner Memory."
NOTE: If you pause for more than a few seconds, after entering the
first digit, the TV/monitor assumes that you have entered a
single-digit channel number and switches to that channel.
7. Adjust CONTRAST, BRIGHTNESS, COLOR, and TINT for the best picture. See
"Picture Adjustments" for more information.
8. Use the VOLUME up and down arrow buttons and the BALANCE control to get
the desired sound.
Multi-Channel Television Sound Broadcasts

select a channel, the TV/monitor is receiving an MTS signal. You must also
consider the following:
If only the STEREO indicator lights, you are receiving a stereo signal.
Press (AUDIO MODE) until STEREO displays on-screen.
If only the SAP indicator lights, you are receiving a SAP signal with a
mono main signal
To listen to the main signal, press (AUDIO MODE) until MONO displays
on-screen.
To listen to the SAP signal, press (AUDIO MODE) until SAP displays on
screen.
If both the STEREO and SAP indicators light, you are receiving a stereo
main signal and a SAP signal.

displays on-screen.
To listen to the SAP signal, press (AUDIO MODE) until SAP displays on
screen.
PROGRAMMING THE TUNER'S MEMORY
Programming the tuner's memory makes channel scanning quicker and more
efficient. You scan only the programmed channels when you press CHANNEL up
or down arrow. If you do not program the tuner's memory, the tuner scans
all channels, stopping on each active one.
You can access any channel, whether or not it is programmed in memory, by
using the remote control's number buttons.
NOTES: If you unplug the TV/monitor or have a failure more than 3 minutes,
tuner preset, clock, on time, and sleep time will be lost. You have
to reset all of the memories.
All tuner programming is done using the remote control.
STORING A CHANNEL IN MEMORY
