Connecting a recorder

If you connect recording equipment such as a VCR or a DVD recorder to the MONITOR OUT terminals on the rear of the Plasma
Display, you can record, for example, digital TV programs using the recording equipment. For more details about recording, refer to
the equipment's instructions.
• The MONITOR OUT terminals do not output the following signals:
1 Video and audio signals from the COMPONENT 1/2 terminals
2 Video and audio signals from the HDMI 1/2 terminals
• When watching images played back on a VCR or DVD recorder
connected to the MONITOR OUT terminals, select an input source
(e.g., TV channel reception) on the recording equipment other than
external input sources. Selecting an external input source may result
in distorted images or noise.

Connecting an AV receiver

The digital audio output terminal (optical) on this system can output Dolby Digital signals. Using an optical digital cable, connect
an AV receiver to the digital audio output terminal (optical) on the rear of the Plasma Display. This allows the reception of high-
quality audio such as digital TV broadcasts.
If your AV receiver does not have a digital audio input terminal (optical), you may connect the MONITOR OUT terminals (AUDIO) on
the rear of the Plasma Display to the audio input terminals on the AV receiver. However, this method may result in audio delay
between the speakers and AUDIO, which may be reduced by muting the speakers on the Plasma Display. Nonetheless, you may
experience delay between audio and video.

Switching the optical audio signal type

See "Setting up External Digital Sound" on page 35.
• When using the digital audio output terminal (optical), you need to make settings depending on your AV receiver. For more information, refer to
the instruction manual supplied with the AV receiver.
• When signals are input from the HDMI terminals, no digital or analog signals are output from the DIGITAL OUT terminal and MONITOR OUT
terminals.
• When signals are input from the COMPONENT terminals, no digital or analog signals are output from the DIGITAL OUT terminal and MONITOR
OUT terminals.
• When signals are input from the VIDEO terminals, no digital or analog signals are output from the DIGITAL OUT terminal.
• When watching an analog TV channel, no digital or analog signals are output from the DIGITAL OUT terminal.

• The MONITOR OUT terminal may result in audio delay between the
speaker and AUDIO. This may be reduced by muting the speakers on
the Plasma Display. Nonetheless, you may experience delay between
audio and video.
• If degraded picture quality is observed while viewing copy-protected
VOD movies connect the Plasma Display directly to other TV sets. Do
not connect through a VCR.
