How is a HDTV/EDTV/SDTV Different from a HDTV/
EDTV/SDTV Monitor?
EDTV/SDTV Monitor?
In order to receive digital broadcasts, a digital "receiver" or "decoder"
must be used to receive and decode digital broadcast signals.
Digital decoders can be built into the monitor itself or they may come in
the form of a set-top box that is added separately to the monitor.
HDTV/EDTV/SDTV Monitors are digital monitors without a digital
decoder built into the television whereas HDTV/EDTV/SDTV
Televisions are displays with a decoder built-in. HDTV/EDTV/SDTV
Monitors give you the flexibility to add a digital decoder in the future
when digital broadcasts are more prevalent.

What is "Down-Convert"?
Down-convert takes place when a digital broadcast signal exceeds the
display capabilities of the monitor and the broadcast signal is reduced to
match the monitor's limited display capabilities. For example, if a TV
station broadcasts a digital program using 1080 lines (1080i format)
while the monitor can only display 480 lines, the signal is reduced or
down-converted to only 480 lines, resulting in lesser information being
displayed.

What is "Up-Convert"?
Up-convert takes place when a HDTV set up box display capabilities
exceed the digital broadcast signal and the broadcast signal is increased
to match the TV's display capabilities. For example, if a TV station
broadcasts a digital program using 480 lines and the HDTV set up box is
able to display 1080 lines, the signal is increased or “up-converted” to
match the TV.

This monitor includes advanced digital processing where all
traditional analog television and video formats (NTSC /
PAL) in the form interlaced signals are up-converted to 480
lines progressive scan method. Please note that up-
conversion may result in some picture artificacts because
