Ethernet Setup
Ethernet Setup
An Ethernet connection allows your TV to be upgraded if a software upgrade is
available. Connect your TV to a router and cable modem via the ETHERNET
jack. Then, go to the Software Upgrade menu to see if a software upgrade is
available. If you have a NAT (Network Address Translation) /PAT (Port Address
Translation) component with DHCP capability (router, etc.), no setup is
required. The TV automatically sets itself up for Ethernet use. If you do not
have a NAT/PAT router, you may need to establish some settings in conjunction
with your ISP (Internet Service Provider) before you can connect to the Internet.
If an IP address isn't assigned for you, contact your network administrator to
access the necessary information.
A Reset All selection is provided for your convenience if you move to another city
and must enter new information, or enter some incorrect information.
Preferences Menu
The Preferences menu allows you to change some aspects of your TV to fit your
personal preferences. Features in the Preferences menu are: Closed Captioning,
Screen Format, Time Menu, Color Scheme, Translucency, and Menu Language.
