CAUTIONS
Lightning
Unplug the PVS from the power outlet and disconnect any antenna or cable system
during a lightning storm or when it is left unattended and unused for long periods of
time. This helps prevent property damage and personal injury from lightning and
power line surges.
Power Lines
An outside antenna system should not be located in the vicinity of overheated power
lines or other electric light or power circuits, or where it can fall into power lines or
circuits. When installing an outside antenna system, extreme care should be taken to
keep from touching power lines or circuits…contact with them might be fatal.
Handling the LCD Panel
The LED and LCD panels are made of glass. Do NOT drop, hit, jolt, or press hard
against the panel. If the screen breaks, beware of sharp edges or broken glass.
Replacement parts
When replacement parts are required, make sure that the service technician uses
replacement parts have the same characteristics as the original part as specified by
the manufacturer. Unauthorized substitutions may result in fire, electric shock,
personal injury, or other hazards. Ask the service technician to perform routine
safety checks to determine the PVS is in correct operating condition after any service
or repair to this device.
Condensation
Moisture will form on the PVS if it is brought from cool surroundings into a warm
room or if the temperature of the room rises suddenly. When this happens, the PVS’s
performance may be impaired. To prevent this, allow the PVS to set in new
surroundings for one hour before switching on, or make sure that the room
temperature rises gradually. Condensation may also form during the summer if the
PVS is exposed to the breeze from an air conditioner. In such cases, change the
locations of the PVS.
Mobile Communication Devices
Phones and other mobile communication devices can cause interference with the
picture and/or sound quality. If you experience undesirable performance by this
appliance in close proximity to one of these devices, please relocate the device away
from the PVS a great enough distance to eliminate the undesired condition.

ATTACHING to STAND or MOUNTING BRACKET
Secure the mounting bracket supplied with your stand or factory mount to the back of the
PVS using the (4) M4 x 0.7 x 6mm screws provided with the PVS. (Longer screws may be
required if the mount you are using is made with a heavy gauge steel. Usually 8mm long screws
will work; longer screws are often included with the mount or stand. If not, purchase them locally
or contact ARG for replacements.)
The bolt/screw mounting pattern is VESA 100 mm standard.

SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: Do not connect the power cord until AFTER all other connections
have been completed! All connections must be made BEFORE the power is cycled
in order for the TV to recognize and properly initialize the wired remote control unit
or any accessories connected to the PVS.
1. Attach PVS to stand or mount per the instructions included with the stand or mount.
(Screws are included for your convenience)
2. Connect the cable to TV signal source. All on-air and most cable or satellite TV
systems use a coaxial line that connects to the antenna terminal of the TV.
(Threaded F-connector) This is marked on the back of the PVS with ANT. Screw
the coaxial cable snugly onto this terminal to ensure a proper picture and sound.
NOTE: Video signal strength must be within the range of 0 +/- 8 dB for optimum TV
performance. Too high or low of a signal will result in poor picture quality and erratic
TV performance. If the signal provider requires the use of a converter box that does
NOT have a coaxial output, connect the source to the PVS via the component A/V
cables or with an HDMI cable. The RCA component AV connectors are marked
Y,Pb,Pr and L/R. The HDMI connector is marked with HDMI.
3. Mount and Connect the Remote Control Unit. The ARG remote control is designed
to be mounted with most makes and models of cardio equipment. To mount the
control unit, first slide the cable ties through the appropriate holes in the mounting
bracket on the underside of the controller. (Top to bottom if mounting it to a
horizontal bar; side to side if mounting to a vertical bar.)
Wrap the cable ties around one of the bars on the equipment in an appropriate
position. Take note how the equipment will be used and make sure the placement
of the controller will not interfere with the function or the range of motion of the
equipment.

Pull the cable ties tightly around the bar so that the controller does not rotate (figure1).
Cut the ends of the ties to eliminate excess (figure2). (Note: A typical treadmill installation
is shown below for reference in this manual. Equipment may differ from the one shown here
and placement of the remote control unit will vary.)
Connect one end of the coiled CAT-5 cable to the RJ-45 terminal located on the
underside of the remote control unit (figures 3 and 4)The other end should be plugged
into the terminal marked RJ45 on the PVS.
4. Plug the power supply into the terminal on the back of the PVS marked, DC +12V.
Then connect the plug to a standard A/C 110V power outlet. This must be the
FINAL step to ensure the TV recognizes and properly initializes the wired remote
control unit or any accessories connected to the PVS. Figures 5 and 6 display how
the controller should look when completed.

INITIAL CHANNEL SETUP AND OPERATION
1. Turn on the master power switch located on the right side of the LCD screen toward
the bottom of the screen.
2. Set the signal source and scan the channels available on your system by following
the instructions below:
Press Menu button on the lower right side of the PVS to enter the setup menu.
Press Volume UP or Volume DOWN button on the wired remote control to access
the Channel Setup menu (the channel setup menu is denoted with the GLOBE icon
as highlighted above).
To navigate through the menu options, press Channel UP or Channel DOWN button
to highlight a setting. Press Volume UP or Volume DOWN button to adjust the
setting or open a setting menu. If another menu opens, press Volume UP or Volume
DOWN button to adjust the setting. Press the menu button on the side of the PVS to
exit the menu screen altogether.
First select the signal source: Select Air or Cable
Next, perform the Auto Scan. If you DO NOT perform this step, the PVS will not
recognize the channels you have available; it will only show the ARG logo on the
display.
Go down to the Auto Scan tab, select yes and ENTER.
The TV will now scan all of the channels available in the area. This may take a few
minutes, especially for digital channels. A bar display will indicate progress. Please be
patient as stopping the scan process will result in a reduced number of channels
available for viewing. When finished, the TV will tune to the lowest receivable channel.
It is now ready to use.

3. Familiarize yourself with the remote control unit. Check for proper operation of the
wired remote control unit. The functions are described below:
The channel up and down arrows change the channel up or down.
The volume up and down arrows change the volume up or down.
The Input button toggles between the various video input sources: TV,
Component, HDMI, etc.
The number keypad allows direct access to channels by entering the number
of the channel you want to watch. To operate, press the channel numbers
including the decimal point for the digital channels, then press enter.
Press the back button, and the channel will go back to the previous channel.
Press again to return to the first channel. This allows for one-touch switching
between two programs.
The “PWR” button turns the unit on and off.
The phones arrow points to the headphone jack located on the side of the
unit just below the keypad. Plug headphones into the jack to hear the sound
from your personal audio equipment.
If system is not functioning properly, turn the PVS off for one minute, then turn it back
on to re-initialize the system. This will in most cases reset any malfunctions with the
PVS. If you continue to have problems, please check the troubleshooting guide located
at the end of this manual. If not resolved or issue not covered in troubleshooting guide,
please call your dealer or contact Audio Resource Group.
