Chapter 2: Connecting your TV

Connecting an HDMI™ or DVI device to the HDMI input

The HDMI input on your TV receives digital audio and uncompressed digital video from an HDMI source device, or uncompressed digital video from a DVI (Digital Visual Interface) source device.

This input is designed to accept HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital-Content Protection) program material in digital form from EIA/CEA-861-861B–compliant[1]consumer electronic devices (such as a set-top box or DVD player with HDMI or DVI output).

The HDMI input will accept and display 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p signals.

Note: To connect a PC to the HDMI input, see page 21.

To connect an HDMI device, you will need:

•one HDMI cable (type A connector) per HDMI device

–For proper operation, it is recommended that you use an HDMI cable with the HDMI Logo (HDMI™). You should use an HDMI cable shorter than 16.4 ft (5m) for 1080p input signals.

–HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate analog audio cables are not required (see illustration).

–See “Setting the HDMI™ audio mode” (- page 34).

To view the HDMI device video:

Select the HDMI 1, HDMI 2, or HDMI 3 video input source on the TV.*

Note: If the audio output mode of the HDMI device is other than the L-PCM mode, the TV speakers will not output sound.

*To select the video input source, press INPUT on the remote control (- page 23). To program the TV remote control to operate other devices, see Chapter 3.

To connect a DVI device, you will need:

•one HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable (HDMI type A connector) per DVI device

–For proper operation, the length of an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable should not exceed 9.8 ft (3m). The recommended length is 6.6 ft (2m).

•one pair of standard analog audio cables per DVI device

–An HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable transfers video only. Separate analog audio cables are required (see illustration).

–See “Setting the HDMI™ audio mode” (- page 34).

Note: To ensure that the HDMI or DVI device is reset properly, it is recommended that you follow these procedures:

•When turning on your electronic components, turn on the TV first, and then the HDMI or DVI device.

•When turning off your electronic components, turn off the HDMI or DVI device first, and then the TV.

[1]EIA/CEA-861-861B compliance covers the transmission of uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital content protection, which is being standardized for reception of high- definition video signals. Because this is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices may not operate properly with the TV.
