Connections & Setup

��	DVI jack and cable Using the DVI jack and a digital DVI cable, your HD Receiver can provide
��
	the unconverted digital signal from digital off-air, analog cable, or DIRECTV® programming directly
	to A/V components that are capable of decoding the digital video information. The DVI jack uses
	HDCP content protection to allow you to view HD programming that has been encoded using
	the HDCP protection system. For the best access to HD programming at the highest available
	resolution, connect this to a HDTV that supports HDCP technology. (DVI cables carry video only;
	use with audio cables for the audio signal.)

RGB OUT jack and cable (cable not included) Uses a computer-standard 15-pin VGA video connection. Each main video color – Red, Green, and Blue – uses a separate pin; and other pins are used to carry vertical and horizontal syncing signals. Using the RGB OUT jack and an RGB cable, you can connect your DIRECTV® HD Receiver to components equipped with RGB input jacks (computer monitors, for example). The RGB Out jack can carry any of the Digital TV and HDTV video resolutions. (This cable carries video only; use with audio cables for the audio signal.)

Optical digital audio jack and cable (cable not included) Optical digital jacks and cables

use light to send digital audio data to A/V receivers equipped to receive and interpret this data. The jacks and cables must be aligned before you plug in the cable. These jacks and cables may also be covered by protective caps which you must remove before making connections.

Coaxial digital audio jack and cable (cable not included) Coaxial digital audio jacks and cables send digital audio data to A/V receivers equipped with coaxial digital audio input jacks.

VCR CONTROL jack and cable The VCR control jack and cable allow your HD Receiver to send signals to your VCR’s remote sensor, giving you the ability to program your VCR to tape programs for you using simple on-screen controls.

IR IN (cable not included) This jack is for connecting a wired remote control system, which is primarily for professional installers. If you’re using the remote that was included with your TV, don’t plug anything into this jack.

RF antenna and RF ANT jack Connecting the RF remote antenna to the RF ANT jack allows your remote control to communicate with your HD Receiver even when you do not have line-of- sight to the receiver’s front panel remote sensor.
