Explanations of required symbols: SYMBOL SYMBOL DEFINITION DANGEROUS VOLTAGE: The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol, within on equilateral triangle, is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electrical shock to persons.
IMPORTANT PRODUCT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS PRODUCT SAFETY WARNING: This device must be operated with the original power supply, part number DPS-210 EP 2 C. CAUTION: The power supply outlet should be located near High Definition LCD TV and should be easily accessible. Always use the appropriate AC cord that is certified for your specific country.
Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected. • Consult the Westinghouse Service Center or an experienced radio/TV technician for assistance. FCC Warning To assure continued FCC compliance, the user must use a grounded power supply cord and the provided shielded video interface cable with bonded ferrite cores.
You may be seriously injured if you touch them. • Always handle your LCD display with care when moving it. • If the High Definition LCD TV emits smoke, abnormal noise, or a strange odor, immediately turn it off and contact the Westinghouse Service Center.
Antenna Installation Safety Outdoor Antenna Grounding If an outside antenna or cable system is connected to the High Definition LCD TV, be sure the antenna or cable system is grounded to prevent voltage surges and built-up static charges. Article 810 of the National Electrical Code, ANS/NFPA 70, provides information on proper grounding of the mast and supporting structure, grounding of the lead-in wire to an antenna discharge unit, connection to grounding electrodes, and requirements for the grounding electrode.
INTRODUCTION: THE BASICS Digital Television (DTV) Television broadcasting is changing. By February of 2009, traditional analog TV transmissions (the standard since TV’s inception) will cease to exist, in compliance with a federal mandate requiring all U.S. television stations to convert from analog to the new digital television (DTV) standards. In contrast to the magnetic waves used for analog transmission (also known as NTSC, short for National Television Standards Committee), DTV transmits images and sound as data, using ones and zeroes, the same digital code...
About the Digital Television Picture Your new Westinghouse High Definition LCD TV has a built-in HDTV/NTSC tuner, meaning it can receive both analog and digital broadcasts from your antenna, cable or satellite service. But because not all broadcasters have converted to the new DTV standards, it’s important to understand some fundamentals of the digital television picture.
About Digital Channels Currently, all broadcasters have an analog TV channel and a digital TV channel. The digital bandwidth has the capability of accommodating more than one program stream because each broadcaster’s assigned digital channel carries a 19.39-megabit-per-second (Mbps) digital data stream. This allows the broadcaster the option of broadcasting a single program or dividing the digital data stream into multiple programming streams.
The Electronic Program Guide (EPG) Your Westinghouse High Definition LCD TV features an on-screen interactive Electronic Program Guide (EPG) that allows you to review program information, as well as navigate through any available minor programming. To access the EPG, push the “Guide” button on the lower left side of your remote, scroll to the “EPG”...
