A Guide to Digital TV
What is Digital Television? Digital television (DTV) is a new way of transmitting high quality video and audio to your TV set. Using DTV, broadcasters can transmit high definition TV (HDTV) images, Dolby digital surround audio, and new services such as multicasting (transmitting more than one program on the same TV channel) and datacasting. Several of these services can be combined into a single digital broadcast.
Digital Television Services

Digital Picture Quality DTV programs are transmitted in two different formats. The first is Standard Definition Television (SDTV) and the second is High Definition Television (HDTV). SDTV program formats include 480-line interlaced (480i) and 480-line progressive (480p) video. 480i programs are essentially a digital version of our current analog TV programs, while the 480p format offers improved image detail over 480i. Some 480p programs are broadcast in widescreen and are comparable to progressive-scan DVD movies in image quality. HDTV program formats include 1080-line interlaced (1080i) and 720-line progressive (720p). Both HDTV formats are always broadcast in widescreen, and offer much higher picture quality than SDTV. Dolby Surround Sound With DTV, you can listen to a variety of Dolby digital audio formats from Dolby Surround 2.0 to Dolby Digital 5.1 surround, using your home audio system. Many HDTV programs are now broadcast with DD 5.1 soundtracks.

Q&A
1. Is the antenna I use for existing TV reception good enough for DTV? Over-the-air (OTA) digital TV broadcasting uses the same channels as analog TV and works well with many existing TV antennas. However, DTV broadcast channel assignments are different than analog channels. You should find out whether your local DTV broadcasts are on VHF (channels 2-13) or UHF (channels 14-69) to see if you need a different antenna. If your DTV channels are on UHF and you already get good UHF reception, your present antenna may work fine. The same holds true for VHF DTV reception. Note that in some markets, both VHF and UHF channels are used for DTV broadcasts. You can find out the latest DTV channel assignments for your area by browsing selected Internet web sites such as www.titantv.com, www.10000watts.com, and www.fcc.gov. 2. How difficult is it to receive DTV signals indoors? This depends on whether your local DTV stations are running full power or not and how close your location is to the transmission tower. DTV receivers do not require as much signal as analog TV receivers to produce high-quality images and sound. Once the DTV signal level exceeds a certain threshold at the receiver, the digital video and audio data is decoded at the same quality it was originally encoded for broadcast. This is a big advantage for DTV over analog TV - there is no noise, ghosting, static, or scratchy audio. 3. How can I connect an antenna in my townhouse, co-operative apartment, condominium, or apartment? The Federal Communications Commissions OTARD Rule (part of the Telecommunications Act of 1996) allows residents of condominiums, townhouse, or members of neighborhood associations to put up outside antennas for reception of broadcast TV signals as long as those antennas are not located in common areas and are no more than 12 in height. Residents of rental units (apartments, etc.) are not covered by the OTARD rules and will have to use indoor antennas to receive DTV broadcasts. It is possible that the landlord of an apartment complex can provide broadcast DTV signals via a master TV antenna system to each apartment. 4. Can I connect my DTV set-top receiver to my cable TV service? Cable TV systems use a different method for transmitting digital TV programs that is currently incompatible with broadcast DTV set-top receivers. So you will still need to use an outdoor or indoor antenna to receive OTA broadcast DTV programs. The good news is that you wont have to pay a monthly or per-program charge to watch OTA DTV and HDTV programs. Theyre free, unlike subscription satellite TV or premium cable TV. All you need is an antenna and a DTV set-top receiver to enjoy clear, sharp widescreen images and high-quality audio.

Memorizing Channels
Your TV can memorize and store all of the available channels for both off-air (antenna) and cable channels. After the available channels are memorized, use the CH and CH buttons to scan through the channels. This eliminates the need to change channels by entering the channel digits. There are three steps for memorizing channels: selecting a broadcast source, memorizing the channels (automatic).
Selecting the Video Signal Source

Before your television can begin memorizing the available channels, you must specify the type of signal source that is connected to the TV (i.e., an antenna or cable system).
Press the MENU button. Press the or button to select Channel, then press the ENTER button.

Replacing the Lamp
Why do I need to replace the lamp? The lamp used in a DLP TV has a limited lifespan. For the best screen quality it needs to be replaced periodically. After replacing the lamp, the screen quality will be bright and clear as new. When do I need to replace it? It should be replaced when the screen becomes darker, less clear or when all three LEDs on the front (TIMER, LAMP, & STAND BY/TEMP) are flashing. Check before lamp replacement 1. The lamp must be the same code number and type. 2. The lamp type is indicated on the side of the TV. It is also indicated on the lamp case. 3. After checking the code number for the lamp, give the code number to the store where you purchased the TV or to a Samsung Service center. Caution 1. Replace with the correct code numbered lamp to avoid damage to the TV. 2. Turn the power off and wait for 30 minutes before replacing the lamp as it will be hot. 3. Do not touch the glass part of the lamp with your bare hands and do not insert any foreign object inside the cover as it may cause poor screen quality, electric shock or fire. 4. Do not place the old lamp near flammable objects or within the reach of children. 5. Be sure to connect this TV directly to an AC wall outlet. If the TV's AC plug is connected to a cable box or other source, it will not allow for proper cool down time.
English - 124
For replacement, you will need a 5.91-Inch screwdriver and a pair of gloves.
Unplug TV, then use a screwdriver to remove the screws.
Remove the Lamp cover.
Remove the Lamp cover duct holding the tab and pulling it out.
Remove the screw securing the Lamp by using a screwdriver.

NOTES
Be sure the replacement Lamp is the same type. After replacing the lamp, align the lamp cover with the groove and secure the screws. The TV will not turn on if the lamp cover is not correctly closed (as this will activate the protective circuit).

Digital broadcasting screen problem.
Continued...
English - 126
Problem
I want to view the clearest picture on in 1080p resolution.
Possible Solution
The best visual quality is obtained with 1080p input signal. To view TV in the best 1080p visual quality, connect to a PC whose graphic output is 1920 x 1080. The visual qualities of digital channels may vary depending on the original production method (analog or digital). If the original production method is digital: High visual quality program. If the original production method is analog: The digital program displayed on the screen is originally an analog program which has been converted. The visual quality is of an SD grade. The HD caption that appears when switching channels or when pressing the Information button on the remote control means the selected channel is simply a digital channel. If the broadcasting station converts an analog signal into digital and transmits the signal, the visual quality may not be perfect. (Applied to Set Top Box built-in model only.)
The visual qualities of digital channels vary.
Although the TV caption shows HD, the visual quality is not satisfactory.
The display panel used for the DLP TV is composed of many tiny pixels. These pixels may occasionally appear on the screen.

Cleaning and Maintaining Your TV
Please follow these guidelines to get the maximum performance from your TV.
Placement
Do not put the TV near extremely hot, cold, humid or dusty places. Do not place the TV near appliances with electric motors that create magnetic fields, such as vacuum cleaners. Keep the ventilation openings clear; do not place the TV on a soft surface, such as cloth or paper. Place the TV in a vertical position only.
Liquids
Do not handle liquids near or on the TV. Liquids that spill into it can cause serious damage.
Cabinet
Never open the cabinet or touch the parts inside. Wipe your TV with a clean, dry cloth. Never use water, cleaning fluids, wax, or chemicals. Do not put heavy objects on top of the cabinet. This DLP TV projects the image onto a large screen by applying an optical system. If you place the TV set face down, it might cause a problem because dirt, or some other contaminant may become attached to the inside of the TV set.
Temperature
If your TV is suddenly moved from a cold to a warm place, unplug the power cord, and allow at least two hours for moisture that may have formed inside the unit to dry completely.
Using Your TV in Another Country

If you plan to take your TV with you to a foreign country, please be aware of the different television systems that are in use around the world. A TV designed for one system may not work properly with another system due to differences in the TV channel frequencies.
