Toshiba HDD-J35 manual Connections to TV Video Connection, Startup

1-4.Connections to TV – Video Connection

In the accessory box, you will find two sets of cables: One is the component video cable (with red, green and blue connectors) and the other is the Audio/Video cable (with yellow, white and red connectors).

For better video quality, it is recommended that you use the HDMI cable, the Mini D-Sub 15-pin cable or the RGBHV video cable (with 5 RCA connectors). These cables are not included in the HDD-J35 package.

HD MODE Switch selection is essential for several outputs. Refer to the HD MODE Switch table on page 71 for making the correct switch selection according to your output connection.

You have 6 choices for connecting the video output from the recorder to your TV. Use only one of the following connections (with (a), (b) or (c) being the best choice):

(a)HDMI connection: If your TV has HDMI input, use a HDMI cable (not supplied) to connect the recorder to your TV. HDMI supports video and multi-channel audio in a single cable, therefore separate connection for audio is not necessary.

Note: Because HDMI is an evolving technology, it is possible that some TVs may not operate properly with the recorder.

(b)Mini D-Sub15-pin connection: If your TV has a RGB Mini D-Sub 15-pin video input connector, use a Mini D-Sub 15-pin cable (not supplied) to connect the recorder to your TV. Set the HD MODE Switch (refer to page 12) to RGB, and then connect the RGB connector on the rear of the recorder to the corresponding socket on the TV.

Do not connect any PC monitor to the recorder via Mini D-Sub 15-pin cable.
