CONNECTING A DEVICE WITH HDMI OR DVI CAPABILITY

TO HDMI 1/DVI, HDMI 2 ~ HDMI 4

Connect the HDMI or DVI to HDMI connection cable from the 1.
output of the HDTV set top box or DVD player to the HDMI
input as shown near the side panel at right.
With DVI output devices, connect a DVI to HDMI cabel to the 2.
HDMI 1/DVI input. Connect the audio out cable 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.
Press the INPUT button, then select HDMI 1 or 2 to view the 3.
program from the HDTV set top box or DVD player.
Completely insert the connection cord plugs •
when connecting to the rear panel jacks. If
you do not, the picture and/or sound may be
abnormal.
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.•
