Connecting External Devices and NetCommand® Setup NetCommand is able to control many current audio and video devices by sending remote control signals from the TV to each device through IR emitters. Additionally, it is also able to learn the remote control signals used by most audio video devices not already in the TV’s memory. NetCommand can automatically switch the TV and compatible or learned Audio/Video (A/V) Receivers to the correct input used with each device.
Connecting a Wall Outlet Cable or Cable Box Wall Outlet Cable Standard Cable Box (can be used with a CableCARD™) Figure 1 (analog cable box, other than an HDTV cable box, compatible with PIP/POP) Figure 2 3 coaxial cables and one two-way RF splitter are required. These are not included with the TV. It is very important to connect the incoming cable for your primary viewing source to ANT-1, especially for CableCARD™ use. Note: See page 29 to connect an HDTV cable box. 1.
CableCARD™ Technology CableCARD Technology Using a CableCARD CableCARD is a nationwide system standard that allows your local cable TV provider to supply you with an access card customized to your account. This card allows your TV to receive, decode and unscramble the premium digital channels included in your cable TV subscription, without the use of a cable box. It also allows your cable provider to automatically update and change your subscription.
Connecting an Antenna with a Single Lead or Antennas with Separate UHF and VHF Leads Antenna with Single Lead (not for use with CableCARD™) Figure 3 A 300-Ohm to 75-Ohm transformer is required. This is not included with the TV, but is available at most electronics stores. For antennas with flat twin leads 1. For an antenna with flat twin leads, connect the 300-Ohm twin leads to the 300-Ohm to 75-Ohm transformer. 2. Push the 75-Ohm side of the transformer onto ANT-1 MAIN on the TV back panel.

A Quadruple IR Emitter cable is included with models WD-52528 and WD-62528. The emitters connected to these jacks are used by the NetCommand system to control other devices such as VCRs, DVD players, Cable boxes and Satellite receivers. 1. Connect the plug end of the supplied IR Emitter Cable to either one of the IR Output NetCommand jacks on the TV back panel. 2.
Connecting Compatible IEEE 1394 Devices Compatible IEEE 1394 Devices It is possible to connect devices to the TV that have IEEE 1394 connectors but are not compatible with the TV or with the NetCommand® control system. Areas of compatibility to consider are: 1. Digital Video Signals The TV is able to decode MPEG2 video. Other types of digital video, such as DV video provided by some camcorders, must be decoded by the source device and sent to the TV as analog video or S-Video.
Connecting Compatible IEEE 1394 Devices, continued Connection Styles 4-Pin Style vs. 6-Pin Style Connectors There are two different connection styles that can be used when connecting IEEE 1394 devices. Use the style that fits your network of audio/video products. There are two different types of connectors used for IEEE 1394 terminals and cables, a 4-pin and a 6-pin style.
Connecting: Helpful Hints Q. My VCR (or other device) does not have two sets of stereo audio outputs. How can I connect this device’s audio to both the TV and the A/V Receiver? A. Connect the single set of stereo audio outputs to the TV only. Use Edit NetCommand® to change the setup of this device. In the Connection screen of “Change” make sure both audio and video for the TV input are check marked and neither the audio or the video for the AVR input are check marked.

NetCommand® Introduction Welcome To NetCommand! NetCommand makes your TV the heart of your Home Theater NetCommand® is an intelligent control system that allows your Mitsubishi TV to become the heart of your Home Theater. With NetCommand, the TV sends signals to the other devices in the system, telling them to play, record, change inputs, adjust volume, change channels and many more functions. All of this is accomplished with one remote control and without changing control layers.
Using the Remote Control with NetCommand® Below is a list of several manufacturers’ devices tested and shown to be compatible with NetCommand. These devices can be controlled 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. This chart lists only the models that have been tested with NetCommand.
NetCommand® Setup On-Screen Buttons 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 of the devices that are connected to the television, or learn the IR code remote control signals for the device connected. For each device, the input to the TV and A/V receiver, and the names for the device are pre-set during Initial NetCommand setup.
3D Graphical Menu System 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. Menu Screens A picture (icon) will be highlighted on the menu screen when selected with the ADJUST arrows. You may then make changes within the menu or access sub-menus, if available. You can also access sub-menus from a button. Sometimes when you select a button, an automatic function begins.
NetCommand® Initial Setup IMPORTANT You may use your TV without setting up NetCommand or the TV Guide On Screen® system. To set up at a later time, choose the NetCommand menu from the Main menu, then select Initial. The TV Guide On Screen system is set up from the NetCommand menu. NetCommand (Information) Screen Figure 2 The NetCommand (Information) Screen describes how to start or delay the initial NetCommand and TV Guide On Screen setup.

IEEE 1394 Devices and NetCommand® Control See pages 32 and 33 for information regarding compatible IEEE 1394 devices and connection styles. The TV is not able to control IEEE 1394 devices that use other types of control protocols. Incompatible digital audio, video and/or control information will still be able to pass from one device through the TV to another device on the network. These incompatible devices may not appear on the Device Selection menu or in the Review screen of the Edit NetCommand menu.
Adding IEEE 1394 Devices Automatically Adding IEEE 1394 Devices Automatically When an IEEE 1394 device is connected into the TV network and is powered On, the new device will automatically announce its presence. This process is called device discovery and can take up to 1 minute. Some non-audio/video or non-compatible IEEE 1394 devices, such as Personal Computers (PCs), may not announce their presence to the TV.
Adding IEEE 1394 Devices Automatically, continued IEEE 1394 Device Type Screen Connection Screen Figures 3 and 4 Figure 5 If the new IEEE 1394 device is also connected using analog inputs, you will need to define the device type.
