CONNECTING AN EQUIPMENT SOURCE WITH HDMI

OR DVI CAPABILITY TO HDMI 1 & HDMI 2

1. Connect the HDMI or DVI to HDMI connection cable from the
output of the HDTV set top box or DVD player to the HDMI
input as shown near the Rear panel at right.
2. With DVI output devices, connect a DVI to HDMI cabel to the
HDMI 1 input. Connect the audio out L and R cables to DVI
Audio Input or connect the audio cables from the Audio output
jack from the HDTV set top box or DVD player to an external
audio amplier as shown to the right.
3. Press the INPUT button, then select HDMI 1 or 2 to view the
program from the HDTV SET-TOP BOX or DVD player.
• Completely insert the connection cord plugs when
connecting to the rear panel jacks. The picture and
sound that is playing back will be abnormal if the
connection is loose.
• When using a DVI to HDMI cable, connect the Audio
Out L and R cables to an external audio amplier.
• The HDMI input on HDMI 1, 2, 3 and 4 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.
• HDMI is not a “NETWORK” technology. It
establishes a one-way, point-to-point connection for
delivery of uncompressed video to a display.
• The connected digital output device controls the
HDMI interface, so proper set-up of device user
settings determines nal video appearance.
• Only HDMI 1 can support DVI audio input.

CONNECTING AN EXTERNAL AUDIO AMPLIFIER

To monitor the audio level of the LCD TV to an external audio
amplier, connect the system as shown on the right. The DIGITAL
OUT and AUDIO OUT from the Rear Panel is a xed output. The
Volume of the amplier is controlled by the amplier, not by the
LCD Television.
The DIGITAL OUT terminal outputs all audio sources to equipment
with Optical IN capability.
1. Connect an optical cable from the DIGITAL OUT to the
OPTICAL IN of a separate Stereo System Amplier as shown
on the Rear Panel on the right.
2. Connect an RCA stereo cable from the AUDIO OUT to the
Audio input of a separate Stereo System Amplier as shown
on the Rear Panel on the right.
• 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.
• Cable plugs are often color-coded. Match colors of plugs and terminals, i.e. connect red to red, white to white, etc.
• To return to the last channel viewed, select “0.TV” from the INPUTS menu.
