How to connect
1. To get the best picture quality, adjust the PC
graphics card to 1024x768, 60Hz. But in
42PM3MV series, we recommend using 640x480,
60HZ for the PC mode.
2. Use the set’s RGB INPUT or HDMI/DVI (VIDEO)
INPUT port for video connections, depending on
your PC connector.
• If the graphic card on the PC does not output
analog and digital RGB simultaneously, connect
only one of either RGB INPUT or HDMI/DVI
(VIDEO) to display the PC on the set.
• If the graphic card on the PC does output analog
and digital RGB simultaneously, set the set to
either RGB or HDMI/DVI (VIDEO); (the other
mode is set to Plug and Play automatically by the
set.)
3. Then, make the corresponding audio connection. If
using a sound card, adjust the PC sound as

mode. If noise is present, change the PC mode to another resolution, change the refresh rate to another rate or adjust the
brightness and contrast on the menu until the picture is clear. If the refresh rate of the PC graphic card can not be changed,
change the PC graphic card or consult the manufacturer of the PC graphic card.

another rate or adjust the brightness and contrast on the VIDEO menu until the picture is clear. If the refresh rate
of the PC graphic card can not be changed, change the PC graphic card or consult the manufacturer of the PC

-When you use too long RGB-PC cable, there might be a noise on the screen. We recommend using under 5m of
the cable. It provides the best picture quality.

work if a HDMI to DVI Cable is in use.
