Installation
Please read the user manual carefully before performing the installation.
The power consumption of the display is approximately 70 watts.
Please use the power cord designated for the product. When an extension cord is required,
use one with the correct power rating. The cord must be grounded and the grounding
feature must not be defeated.
The product should be installed on a flat surface to avoid tipping. Space should be
maintained between the back of the product and the wall for proper ventilation. If you
would like mount the TV to the wall, please see page 13-14, for additional information.
Avoid installing the product in the kitchen, bathroom or other places with high humidity
dust or smoke, so as not to shorten the service life of the electronic components. Please
ensure the product is installed with the screen in landscape orientation. Any 90°
clockwise or counterclockwise installation may induce poor ventilation and successive
component damage.
Lightning Protection
For added protection of the LCD TV during a lightning storm or when it is left
unattended or unused for long periods of time, unplug the LCD TV from the wall outlet
and disconnect the antenna or cable system.
Power Lines
Do not locate the antenna near overhead light or power circuits, or where it could fall into
such power lines or circuits.
Front View
Note:
Power indicator: If light is blue, the TV is turned on. If the light is red, the TV is turned
off and in standby mode. If the light is off, the inverter connector is not
connected and no power is provided to the display panel.
IR sensor: This is the sensor that passes all of the remote signals to the TV. Point the
remote control directly at this sensor for the best response.
Power on/off – Please note this is a passive power button and doesn’t
physically cut power off the TV but turn the TV into standby mode. When
turning LCD on/off, wait 5-10 seconds before pressing the power button
again.
Source Explained
TV This connection is for TV tuner only. TV tuner is actually a NTSC standard
tuner, which can scan over the airwave UHF/VHF or Analog Cable (cable
directly hooked up into the TV) TV stations and display them at standard
definition (regular TV video resolution). This connection is primarily used
by non-HD antennas or analog cables.
HDMI HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. This type of
connection is designed so that 1 single cable can handle both high definition
digital video and audio at the same time. To view video and listen to audio
with this source you must have a HDMI to HDMI cable. This type of
connection is primarily used by satellite or digital cable boxes, up
conversion DVD players, and HD DVD players.
HDCP HDCP stands for High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection. This type of
function is designed so high definition video cannot be copied while hooked
up to a recording device. HDCP is enabled in HDMI and in HDCP DVI mode.
This type of connection is primarily used by satellite or digital cable boxes
and up conversion DVD players. Please note to get sound out of HDCP mode
you must connect an audio cable from your audio video device to the audio
port labeled “PC Audio In”.
DVI DVI stands for Digital Video Interface. This type of connection is designed so
video can be digitally transferred to the television therefore display the colors
of any video more accurately and vividly. This interface can be used by both
PC only. Please note to get sound out of DVI mode you must connect an
audio cable from your audio video device to the audio port labeled “PC
Page16 SCEPTRE X20
Audio In”.
VGA-PC VGA stands for Video Graphics Array. This type of connection is designed so
people can use their PCs on the 20” LCD/TV. This type of connection is
primarily used by personal computers. Please note to get sound out of VGA
mode you must connect an audio cable from your audio video device to the
audio port labeled “PC Audio In”.
YPbPr 1 (Component) High definition audio video devices can be connected to the port
via 3 wires, red, green, and blue. Older audio video devices that
display high definition video use this port. This connection is
primarily used by DVD player, satellite box, digital cable box,
and video game consoles (XBOX 360, PS3, Gamecube).
VGA-YPbPr 2 This is a duplicate for YPbPr 1 (Component). Please use the
optional VGA to Component conversion cable.
AV This connection is for common audio video devices that use RCA (red yellow
white) cable. This connection is primarily used by VCR, DVD player, DV
camcorder, and video game consoles (XBOX 360, PS3, Gamecube).
If the remote control is not to be used for a long time, remove the batteries.
Keep the remote control away from moisture, sunlight, and high temperatures.

ASPECT
Press the button to select the available screen aspect ratio –
Auto,16:9 ,4: 3, Zoom Full, Zoom Subtitle.
2. 16:9
When watching a standard broadcast or full-frame movie in this mode, the display
image is stretched horizontally to fill the TV screen. When watching a widescreen
(1.76:1 source) program or movie, the display image fills the TV screen. If you are
watching a widescreen (1.85:1 or 2.35:1 source) program or movie, there will still
be black bars at the top and bottom. Note : When in HD mode or connected to a
HD set-top box that controls the resolution you will not be able to choose your
aspect ratio.
3. 4:3
The original 4:3 aspect ratio (1.33:1 source) is preserved, so black bars are added to
the left and right of the display image. Standard TV broadcasts are displayed with a
4:3 Aspect Ratio. Movies in 4:3 Aspect Ratio may be referred to as pan-and-scan or
full frame. These movies were originally filmed in 16:9 (widescreen), and then
modified to fit a traditional TV screen (4:3). Note : When in HD mode or
connected to a HD set-top box that controls the resolution you will not be able to
choose your aspect ratio.
5. Zoom Subtitle
This mode is primarily used when you’re watching a movie where the widescreen
aspect ratio is not 16:9 but rather 1.85:1 or 2.35:1. Since black bars at the top and
bottom, this zoom mode cuts off the top black bar but preserves the bottom for
subtitle purposes. Note : When in HD mode or connected to a HD set-top box that
controls the resolution you will not be able to choose your aspect ratio.
