CONNECTING A COMPONENT SOURCE WITH HDMI OR

DVI CAPABILITY TO HDMI 1, HDMI 2 OR HDMI FRONT

1. Connect the HDMI or DVI to HDMI connection

cable from the output of the HDTV set top box or DVD player to the HDMI input as shown

on the Rear panel below.

2.With DVI output, connect the cable from the AUDIO OUT R of the HDTV set top box or DVD player to the INPUT (AUDIO/R) jack as shown on the Rear Panel below.

3.With DVI output, connect the cable from the AUDIO OUT L of the HDTV set top box or DVD player to the INPUT (AUDIO/L) jack as shown on the Rear Panel below.

HDMI input

NOTE: 1. Completely insert the connection cord plugs when connecting to rear panel jacks. The picture and sound that is played back will be abnormal if the connection is loose.

2.The HDMI input on HDMI 1 , 2 and FRONT contains the copy protection system called High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP). HDCP is a cryptographic system that encrypts video signals when using HDMI connections to prevent illegal copying of video contents.

3.HDMI is not a “NETWORK” technology. It establishes a one-way point-to-point connection for delivery of uncompressed video to a display.

4.The connected digital output device controls the HDMI interface so proper set-up of device user settings determines final video appearance.

5.When using a DVI to HDMI cable, connect the Audio Out L and R cables at the same INPUT (1 , 2 or Front) as your HDMI INPUT(1 , 2 or Front). (For FRONT INPUT see page 15 for reference).
