NOTES: 1. Completely insert the connection cord plugs when connecting to rear panel jacks. The picture and sound that is

played back will be abnormal if the connection is loose.

2. The HDMI input on INPUT 1 contains the copy protection system called High-bandwidth Digital Content

Protection (HDCP). HDCP is a cryptographic system that encrypts video signals when using HDMI connections to

prevent illegal copying of video contents.

3. HDMI is not a “NETWORK” technology. It establishes a one-way point-to-point connection for delivery of

uncompressed video to a display.

4. The connected digital output device controls the HDMI interface so proper set-up of device user settings determines

final video appearance.
