NOTES

• Completely insert the connection cord plugs when

 

connecting to the rear panel jacks. If you do not, the

 

picture and/or sound may be abnormal.

When using a DVI to HDMI cable, connect the Audio Out L and R cables to an external audio amplifier.

The HDMI input on HDMI 1, 2, 3 and 4 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.

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

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

Only HDMI 1 can support DVI audio input.
