Connections and Setup

Connecting the Device

High-Deﬁnition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is 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 devices that have a DVI jack.

Note: The HDMI/DVI jack is not intended to be used with a computer.

• Connect your device that has an HDMI jack using an HDMI cable.

Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI/DVI INPUT jack on the back of the

TV and to the HDMI Out jack on the back of the device.

B.Attach an HDMI/DVI adapter to the end of the HDMI cable, then connect the adapter to the DVI Out jack on the back of the device.

Note: If the device you’re connecting has a digital audio output jack, connect a digital audio cable from the device to an audio receiver for digital audio.

D. After you’ve completed the on-screen Assisted Setup (page 21), go to the DVI Audio Input option in the Audio Connections menu to select which Audio Input jack you’re using. In the example on the opposite page you would choose INPUT 3.
