INPUT 2 and 4 COMPOSITE INPUTS Connect an NTSC (analog) device. These jacks are used for most audio/video connections between devices. The audio/video jacks are often color coded (yellow for video, red for right audio, and white for left audio).

R Audio provides right audio connection and connector is usually red.

L Audio provides left audio connection and connector is usually white.

V (Video) provides composite video connection and connector is usually yellow.

S-VIDEOLets you connect an S-Video cable for better picture quality to a device with S-Video capability, such as a VCR or DVD player. When using S-Video, make sure to connect the two audio cables as well as the

S-Video connector.

The S-Video jack provides better picture quality than the composite video jacks because the color (chrominance, also called chroma) part of the signal is separated from the black and white (luminance) part of the picture.

INPUT 4 COMPOSITE INPUT Provides connection to an additional optional video device, such as a DVD player or satellite receiver. The jacks are the same as described above for INPUT 2.

FIXED/VARIABLE AUDIO OUTPUTS

L and R Provides right front and right rear mixed sound to the right input, and left front and left rear mixed sound to the left input.

SVGA INPUT (might not be available on your TV)

VGA/SVGA/XGA Connect your device with a VGA, SVGA, or XGA output, to this jack using a 15 pin D-sub cable.

AUDIO (Stereo mini jack) Use to obtain sound when a device is connected to the SVGA jack. Use a 3.5 mm stereo mini pin cable (sometimes referred to as 1/8” stereo mini pin) to connect a device to your TV.

HDMI 1 and 2 INPUTS (some TV models only have one HDMI Input) High-

Definition Multimedia Interface/Digital Visual Interface Provides an uncompressed digital interface that carries both video and audio data by way of an integrated mini-plug cable. Since HDMI is based on Digital Visual Interface (DVI), the jack on the back of your TV is also compatible with DVI devices.

Note: If you connect a device with a DVI jack to one of the HDMI inputs, you’ll need an HDMI to DVI adapter. Also, connect audio cables to an input that is not in use. An example is shown on page 16. Then go to the Advanced Audio menu and select DVI Audio Input to choose the input you’re using to receive audio.
