Features and Controls
PIP (Picture-in-Picture) Operation
The PIP (picture-in-picture) feature lets you display a second, smaller picture
on top of the main picture.
Your TV is equipped with a single tuner that tunes to cable or off-air
television signals. The PIP feature on your TV requires a second video
source, like a VCR or satellite receiver to supply the second picture to the
screen. The PIP feature also requires connecting the second video source to
the TV with audio/video cables.
PIP Buttons
There are four remote buttons that control the way the PIP window works:
PIP Brings up the PIP window. Press PIP again to remove the window. If you
have selected the option labelled Alternate with PIP while in the PIP
Caption Display menu, then you will be able to toggle closed captioning
between the main screen and the PIP window by pressing the PIP button
MOVE buttons Let you move the PIP window to different areas of the
screen.
SWAP Switches, or "swaps," the video from the PIP window with the main
picture.
CH CTRL (Channel Control) Lets you switch channel control between the
PIP window and the main picture. To determine whether you are
controlling the PIP or the main picture, bring up the Channel Marker
(detailed on the following page). The yellow channel number is the one you
are controlling.
For instance, press PIP to bring up the PIP window. You can change channels
by entering digits or pressing the CH^/v. When you press the CH CTRL, the
channel control switches to the main picture. You can now change channels
in the main picture by entering digits or pressing CH^/v.
Press CH CTRL again to return the channel control to the PIP
window.
