Tips on connections
Connectivity guide
Always connect a device to the TV with the highest quality connection available. Also, use good quality cables to ensure a good transfer of picture and sound.
If you need help to connect several devices to the TV, you can visit the Philips TV connectivity guide. The guide offers information on how to connect and which cables to use.
Go to www.connectivityguide.philips.com
Antenna
If you have a Set-top box (a digital receiver) or Recorder, connect the antenna cables to run the antenna signal through the Set-top box and/or Recorder first before it enters the TV. In this way, the antenna and the Set-top box can send possible additional channels to the Recorder to record.
HDMI
HDMI CEC
An HDMI connection has the best picture and sound quality. One HDMI cable combines video and audio signals. Use an HDMI cable for High Definition (HD) TV signals. For best signal quality transfer, use a High speed HDMI cable and do not use an HDMI cable longer than 5 m.
EasyLink HDMI CEC If your devices are connected with HDMI and have EasyLink, you can operate them with the TV remote control. EasyLink HDMI CEC must be switched on on the TV and the connected device. In Help, press * List and look up EasyLink HDMI CEC for more information on using EasyLink.

In Help, press * List and look up Audio to video sync for more information.
Audio Out settings
Audio Out delay
With a Home Theatre System (HTS) connected to the TV, the picture on TV and the sound from the HTS should be synchronised. A mismatch can be visible in scenes with people talking - when they finish sentences before their lips stop moving or just the opposite.
Automatic audio to video sync With recent Philips Home Theatre Systems, the audio to video sync is automatically synchronised and always correct.
Audio sync delay For some Home Theatre Systems you might need to adjust the audio sync delay to synchronise the audio to video. On the HTS, increase the delay value until there is a match between picture and sound. A delay value of 180ms may be required. Read the user manual of the HTS. With a delay value set up on the HTS, you need to switch off Audio Out delay on the TV.
To switch off the Audio Out delay . . . 1 - Press h and select S Setup and press OK. 2 - Select TV settings > Sound > Advanced > Audio Out delay. 3 - Select Off and press OK. 4 - Press b, repeatedly if necessary, to close the menu.
Audio Out offset
If you cannot set a delay on the Home Theatre System, you can set the TV to sync the sound. You can set an offset that compensates the time necessary for the Home Theatre System to process the sound of the TV picture. You can set the value in steps of 5ms. Maximum setting is -60ms. The Audio Out delay setting should be switched on.
To synchronise the sound on the TV . . . 1 - Press h and select S Setup and press OK.
2 - Select TV settings > Sound > Advanced > Audio Out offset. 3 - Use the slider bar to set the sound offset and press OK. 4 - Press b, repeatedly if necessary, to close the menu.

With Multichannel, the TV can send the compressed multichannel sound signal from a TV channel or connected player to the Home Theatre System. If you have a Home Theatre System without multichannel sound processing, select Stereo.
To set the Audio Out format . . . 1 - Press h and select S Setup and press OK. 2 - Select TV settings > Sound > Advanced > Audio Out format. 3 - Select Multichannel or Stereo. 4 - Press b, repeatedly if necessary, to close the menu.
Audio Out leveling
Use the Audio Out leveling setting to level the volume (loudness) of the TV and the Home Theatre System when you switch over from one to another. Volume differences can be caused by differences in sound processing.
To level the difference in volume . . . 1 - Press h and select S Setup and press OK. 2 - Select TV settings > Sound > Advanced > Audio Out leveling. 3 - If the volume difference is large, select More.

IR Sensor The remote control of the TV uses RF (radio frequency) to send its commands to the TV. With RF, you do not need to point the remote control at the TV.
However, the TV can also receive commands from a remote control that uses IR (infrared) to send commands. If you use such a remote control, always make sure you point the remote control at the infrared sensor on the front of the TV.
Pairing This remote control uses radio frequency (RF) to send its commands to the TV. Contrary to remote controls using infrared signals, with this remote control you can send commands without pointing at the TV.
With no need to point the remote control, using the keyboard on the back or sending commands from another room - changing the volume or switching channels - is easy. Additionally, the TV can notify you when the battery power of the remote control is low.
Pairing the remote control For the remote control to communicate with the TV, both TV and remote control should be paired with each other. Once paired, you cannot use the remote control to control another TV. When you started the initial TV installation, the TV invited you to press the OK key, and by doing so, the pairing was done. When you switch off the TV, the pairing is stored. You can pair up to 5 remote controls with this TV.

Unicable setup
The Unicable system
You can use a Unicable system to connect the antenna dish to the TV. A Unicable system uses one cable to connect the satellite dish to all satellite receivers in its system. Unicable is typically used in apartment buildings. If you use a Unicable system, the TV will ask you to assign a user band number and corresponding frequency during the installation. You can install 1 or 2 satellites with Unicable on this TV.
If you notice some missing channels after a Unicable installation, another installation might have been done at the same moment on the Unicable system. Do the installation again to install the missing channels.
User band number
In a Unicable system, each connected satellite receiver must be numbered (e.g. 0, 1, 2 or 3 etc.). You can find the available user bands and their number on the Unicable switchbox. User band is sometimes shortened as UB. There are Unicable switchboxes that offer 4 or 8 user bands. If you select Unicable in the settings, the TV will ask you to assign the unique user band number for its built-in satellite receiver. A satellite receiver cannot have the same user band number as another satellite receiver in the Unicable system.
User band frequency
Next to the unique user band number, the built-in satellite receiver needs the frequency of the selected user band number. These frequencies are mostly shown next to the user band number on a Unicable switchbox.
Add a satellite You can add an additional satellite to your current satellite installation. The installed satellites and their channels stay untouched. However, some satellite operators do not allow adding a satellite.
The additional satellite should be seen as an extra, it is not your main satellite subscription or not the main satellite of which you use its channel package. Typically, you would add a 4th satellite when you have 3 satellites already installed. If you have 4 satellites installed, you might consider removing one first to be able to add a new satellite.
Settings If you currently have only 1 or 2 satellites installed, the current installation settings might not allow adding an extra satellite.
