On the back of your Klipsch CS-500 system, there is a progressive scan switch labeled
P.SCAN. Progressive scan is a result of the digital TV transition—it is a process digital TVs
can use to read and display broadcast signals. Progressive scan TVs display each pixel (picture
element) of the signal consecutively line by line. All progressive scan TVs are digital, but not all
digital TVs are progressive scan.
Some digital TVs only support the classic interlace display method that TVs have used since
their inception. With interlace scanning, a TV draws every other line of the broadcast signal—
fi rst, the even numbered lines and then the odd numbered lines. This process happens so
quickly it tricks your eye so it appears as though you're seeing the entire picture.
If your digital TV is progressive scan, turn the P.SCAN switch to ON. Additionally, you must
use the COMPONENT Video connection (Y, P
jacks to the progressive scan TV's COMPONENT VIDEO (Y, P
progressive scan to work correctly. See Step 4 on page 5 for detailed instructions.
NOTE: If you put the P.SCAN switch in the ON position and your TV doesn't support
progressive scan, you won't see a picture on the TV screen.
