Can
the Plasma display be used as a TV and PC monitor at the same time?
Sun Group's Plasma TV has a VGA/RGB port connection so you can connect
to your PC. The Plasma TV can also be used alone as your PC monitor,
you can watch TV and use your PC at the same time.
The onboard digital scaling engine accepts various computer signals
and maps them to fit within 852 X 480 pixels. Compatible signals
display resolutions up to 1280 X 1024. The maximum physical display
resolution of the external monitor is 640 X 480 dots when the aspect
ratio is set to 4:3, and 852 X 480 dots when the aspect ratio is
16:9.

Does
a Higher Resolution mean it will have better picture quality?
Not necessarily. A higher resolution screen setting may not always
give you better picture quality. Screens that are a higher resolution
tend to have the best picture when used with a high definition signal.
Some lower resolution monitors will have a better picture when viewing
DVD's.

Can
I watch two channels at the same time on the Plasma TV screen (PIP/POP)?
Yes. Picture-in-Picture (PIP) allows you to watch two programs simultaneously
with four selectable window positions. Picture-on-Picture (POP)
allows you to watch two programs side by side. PIP/POP is available
when your video source is set to TV, AV, S-Video, Component 1 or
Component 2. For example, you can watch two analog TV programs simultaneously
with PIP/POP by using the built-in TV tuner and an external tuner
such as the one inside your VCR. You can also watch analog TV and
a DVD movie at the same time.
However, if your video source is from an RGB or DVI source, or
in some instances from component video sources such as HDTV signals,
progressive scan DVD, or a laptop or computer connection, then PIP
and POP will not function. The Plasma TV also has three viewing
modes: 16:9 aspect ratio, 4:3 aspect ratio, and panorama mode.

two warranty.

What
does HDTV really mean?
High-Definition Television, or HTDV, is a new broadcasting standard
that transmits television programs using computer code. These signals
can carry a much greater amount of data because the information
can be compressed and then displayed on a wide-screen format television.
Televisions equipped to receive digital signals can display incredibly
sharp, bright, high-resolution images and better sound, because
the signal is able to support a wider range of frequencies.

Is
the Sun Group Plasma TV HDTV ready?
The Sun Group Plasma TV is EDTV-ready, which is the middle-range
option for digital programming. HDTV offers the highest resolution
available, but commands a much higher price tag. Your Sun Group
Plasma TV will deliver a higher resolution than your analog set
at an entry-level price.

What
equipment do I need to watch digital TV?
In addition to your Sun Group Plasma TV, you
will also need to access digital service. To receive most digital
programming, your in-home equipment must have a digital tuner decoder
box, usually obtained through the satellite or cable company providing
your digital service. The box translates the digital signal for
broadcast on the screen.

Can
I upgrade my Sun Group Plasma TV to handle HDTV programming?
Sun Group's Plasma TV is high-definition compatible
and works with most satellite and digital cable set top boxes. The
TV can be connected to an external high-definition decoder box to
receive digital or 1080I and 720p high-definition signals.
To receive high-definition digital programming, you should have
a digital tuner decoder box, usually obtained through the satellite
or digital cable service subscription process. The box translates
the digital signal for broadcast on the screen.

more events broadcast in HDTV.
