������� 1 INTRODUCTION Congratulations on your choice of the innovative SIM2GrandCinema HTL40 Link system! I™ NO FFO P OR EC SS RO AM EG D IGI PO CIT 3
������� The new HTL40 LINK flat screen offers the ideal combination between top TFT-LCD technology and an expert system for digital processing of video signals. The signal processing capabilities of the Image Processor ensure optimum reproduction of a broad range of input signals, from interlaced video to high definition and graphics. Your HTL40 LINK system is composed of two refined and elegant units.
������� 2 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION! To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect the power supply cable on the rear panel before removing the cover of the screen. For technical assistance refer to trained personnel authorised by the manufacturer. This symbol indicates the possible electric shock hazard associated with uninsulated live components inside the unit. This symbol indicates the presence of important instructions regarding use and maintenance of the product.

������� 4 INSTALLATION your nearest SIM2 dealer). The following section describes the operations to be performed for the various installation configurations. POSITIONING THE TWO UNITS The HTL40 LINK system consists of two separate units (the DigiOptic™ Image Processor and the screen), each of which is equipped with a power cable; the two units are interconnected by a 20 m fibre optic cable.
������� The fixing system is not supplied with the HTL40 LINK system Remove the protective caps from the LCD panel connectors making a mental note of the number markings and then insert the fibre optic cable in accordance with the diagram in Fig.9. � ��� � Protective cap � � ����� Fig.9 Position the styled rear panel at the back of the display and line up the four holes with the bushes already fitted (Fig.10A). Caution! When fitting the rear panel make sure it is perfectly parallel to the screen.
������� � � � � Fig.10 TABLETOP INSTALLATION WITH SUPPORT BASE (OPTIONAL) Fig.11 For tabletop installation of the unit you will need the tabletop support, which is sold separately from the HTL40 LINK system. With the panel in its vertical position, insert the power cable plug into the socket on the LCD panel (Fig.8). For more details on the tabletop support and the various models available contact your nearest dealer.
������� During installation of the fibre optic cable: • The individual optical cables are delicate: always handle the main cable without touching the individual optical cables (Fig.13). Never pull the individual optical cables or connectors; if necessary, you may pull the main three-core cable. Caution! When fitting the rear panel make sure it is always kept parallel to the screen.
������� Table 1 shows the types of signals usually available for the most common types of video sources and the corresponding input connectors to use on the DigiOptic™ Image Processor. Table 1 ������������ ���������������� ��������� Protective cap Fig.14 Avoid exposing the panel to direct light sources. As far as possible it is also advisable to avoid placing light coloured furniture or other objects with highly reflective surfaces in the immediate proximity of the screen.
������� H and V inputs. When connecting the three sets of RCA connectors use the colours as a guide: connector R is red, G is green, B is blue, H/HV is white and V is black. By using a suitable SCART to RCA (or BNC) connector adapter cable, an RGB video signal from a source equipped with an SCART connector can be connected to this input. Component signals are connected to inputs Y, Cr and Cb, taking care to observe the correspondence with the outputs on the source.

������� 5 SWITCHING ON AND OFF The HTL40 LINK system consists of the Screen and the DigiOptic™ Image Processor (which is also the system control centre). The DigiOptical Image Processor sends commands to the screen and receives operating status information from the screen and function commands from the user. The system can be controlled from either the remote control (via the infrared sensors on the DigiOptic™ Image Processor and on the screen) or the keypad located at the top of the LCD panel.
������� Switching off the system (Fig.18): • from the remote control (key ) • from the screen keypad (key ).

Input 11 can receive YCrCb or RGB signals from DVI-D sources. The selection must be made on the pull-down menu following the previously illustrated system.
������� Some adjustments (e.g. BRIGHTNESS and CONTRAST) are associated with a numerical value that can be varied within the set limits using the ▶ and ◀ keys. For others (e.g. VIDEO TYPE) you can choose between two options presented on the same line (and selectable using the ▶ and ◀ keys). Other adjustments (identified by by the symbol <) are associated with submenus, which appear as a superimposed window in which the selection is made with the ▲ and ▼ keys (Fig.23).
������� SHARPNESS MODE Table 3 ����� ����� � � � � � ���������� This allows you to select the mode in which the input signal is processed. Selecting the most appropriate value for a given input signal ensures the best horizontal and vertical definition and makes the picture sharper. �������� ������ � ���� FILTER ���� ������ ����������� ����� ��� ���� ������������ ���������� ����������� ������ This allows you to select the type of processing associated with sharpness adjustment.
