Connecting External Devices & NetCommand ® Setup NetCommand is able to control many current audio and video devices by sending remote control signals from the TV to each device. NetCommand is also able to learn the remote control signals used by most audio video devices not already in the TV’s memory. NetCommand will also automatically switch the TV and compatible or learned Audio/Video (A/V) Receivers to the correct input used with each device.
NetCommand ® Pre-Memorized Devices Below is a list of several manufacturers devices tested and shown to be compatible with the NetCommand control system. When you use these devices you will be able to control them without changing the setting of the remote control from TV to another product. NetCommand may be able to operate additional models since many manufacturers use the same control signals to operate some or all of the models they offer.
Connecting Antenna or Wall Outlet Cable for Digital Broadcasts Antenna or Wall Outlet Cable for Digital Broadcasts Figure 1 For cable or antenna with coaxial lead Connect the incoming cable to ANT-DTV on the TV back panel. Mitsubishi strongly recommends against using antennas with twin flat leads. Twin flat lead antenna wires are subject to interference which may adversely affect the performance of the TV. We recommend using coaxial antenna cable.

Note: If you have an S-VHS VCR, follow the same steps using the S-Video terminals on the VCR and TV (in place of the composite terminals). 2. Connect a set of audio cables from AUDIO OUT on the VCR back panel to AUDIO INPUT 1 on the TV back panel.
Connecting a DVD Player WARNING: Do not display the same stationary images on the screen for more than 15% of your total TV viewing in one week. Examples of stationary images are letterbox top/bottom bars from DVD or other video sources, side bars when showing standard TV pictures on widescreen TV’s, stock market reports, video game patterns, station logos, black or bright Closed caption backgrounds, web sites or stationary computer images.
Connecting an External Digital TV (DTV or HDTV) Receiver DTV Connectors and Adaptors Figure 11 The TV back panel has 5 RCA-type connectors for the Input-DTV. The back panel of your external DTV receiver may use RCA-type connectors or BNC-type connectors. If your DTV receiver comes with BNC type connections, you will need to purchase BNC to RCA adaptors to connect the TV to the DTV receiver. These adaptors should be available at most electronic supply stores.
Connecting an External Digital TV (DTV or HDTV) Receiver with RGB, HV Video Connections It may be necessary to obtain a VGA to RGB audio adaptor cable. These are available at most computer stores and many electronic stores. Some of the adaptor cables have RCA type connector ends, others have BNC type ends and will require adaptors as shown on page 21. 3 5 R e d External DTV Receiver with RGB, HV Video Connections Figure 13 1.

3D Graphical Menu System Your TV has a special control system called NetCommand® that will control IEEE 1394 devices and selected older devices. For instructions on operating these control features, see the next page. Your TV also has Mitsubishi’s exclusive 3D Graphical on-screen operating system, which provides on-screen information for menu choices and changes, using the TV’s remote control.
Using the Remote Control with NetCommand® Setup In order to use the TV’s NetCommand feature, you need to provide some detailed information during the setup of your Mitsubishi TV. You must define the Manufacturer Radio Buttons of the devices that are connected to the television, or learn the IR code remote control signals for the device connected.
NetCommand ® Initial Setup Guide The easiest way to setup NetCommand is to follow the on-screen directions. For reference, below is a list of the screens that you will use. You will find detailed information regarding each screen in the pages following this Guide. Initial Initial NetCommand Setup: When you first turn on your TV. You may Cancel at any screen.

Connecting IEEE 1394 Devices 4-Pin Style vs. 6-Pin Style There are two different types of connectors used for IEEE 1394 terminals and cables, a 4-pin and a 6-pin style. 4 pin connector 6 pin connector The 4-pin connector is capable of sending digital audio signals, digital video signals and digital control signals back and forth between devices. Your TV has three 4-pin type connection jacks available. One is on the front panel and two are on the back.
Connecting IEEE 1394 Devices, continued When Connecting IEEE 1394 Devices • Do not loop the last device in the chain back to the TV. When the device chain is looped, the TV may not be able to work with the other devices. • Place devices that have only a mechanical (two-position) power switch at the end of the chain or leave the power switch in the ON position. When turned OFF, IEEE 1394 signals may not be able to pass through the device to other devices.
Adding IEEE 1394 Devices Automatically IEEE 1394 Device Type Screen Connection Screen If the new IEEE 1394 device is also connected using analog inputs, you will need to define the device type. Select the type of device, such as a VCR. Select the TV input that you used when you connected the video or S-Video cables.

NetCommand ® Controlled Peer-to-Peer Connections What is a Peer-to-Peer Connection? Figure 1 A peer-to-peer connection allows the IEEE 1394 devices in your TV network to talk to each other without the further need of TV intervention once the peer-to-peer connection is established. For example, the TV can setup a connection for an A/V Disc or DVCR that sends a recorded program to an IEEE 1394 monitor in another room. NetCommand will establish the connection between the two devices.
NetCommand Remote Control Buttons: Device Menu, Guide Device Menu Guide While watching a NetCommand compatible traditional IR controlled or an IEEE 1394 device, press DEVICE MENU once or twice to display the menu for that device. • For NetCommand compatible satellite receivers and some cable boxes, GUIDE will display the on-screen programming guide for the receiver or cable box.
