Inputs and Outputs, continued

1. ANT (Antenna)

Connect your main antenna or direct cable service (no cable box) to ANT. The ANT input can receive digital and analog over-the-air channels from a VHF/UHF antenna or non-scrambled digital/analog cable source.

2.HDMI™ Inputs (High-Definition Multimedia Interface)

The HDMI inputs support uncompressed standard and high-definition digital video formats and PCM digital stereo audio.

Mitsubishi recommends you use category 2 HDMI cables, also called high-speed HDMI cables, to connect HDMI 1.3 source devices. High-speed category 2 cables bring you the full benefits of Deep Color and x.v.Color.

These HDMI inputs can also accept digital DVI video signals. To connect a device’s DVI output to the TV’s HDMI input, use an HDMI-to-DVI adapter or cable plus analog audio cables. Connect the analog audio cables to the DVI/PC INPUT AUDIO jacks on the TV to receive left and right stereo audio from your DVI device.

Use the HDMI inputs to connect to CEA-861 HDMI com- pliant devices such as a high-definition receiver or DVD player. These inputs support 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p video formats.

The TV’s HDMI inputs are compatible with many DVI-D and HDMI computer video signals.

These inputs are HDCP (High-Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) compliant.

HDMI Cable Categories

HDMI cables are available as Category 1 and Cat- egory 2 types.

•Category 2 Cables (also called high-speed HDMI cables). Newer, HDMI 1.3-compliant DVD players, video games, and set-top boxes require Category 2 cables, suitable for clock frequen- cies up to 340 MHz or data rates of up to 10.2 gigabits per second. Use category 2 cables for high-speed 1080p HD signals carrying extended color encodings (i.e., 30 or more bits, also called Deep Color). Category 2 cables are also suitable for standard HDTV signals.

•Category 1 Cables (also called standard HDMI cables). Category 1 cables may be unmarked. They are suitable for standard HDTV 720p, 1080i, and 1080p signals with 8-bit color depth. Use category 1 cables for clock frequencies up to 74.25 MHz or data rates of up to 2.23 gigabits per second.

3. Y Pb Pr (Component Video)

Connect devices with component video outputs to this jack. Use the adjacent AUDIO R and L jacks if you wish to send audio to the TV.

4. Video (Composite Video)

Connect a VCR, DVD player, standard satellite receiver, or other A/V device to the TV. Use the adjacent AUDIO R and L inputs if you wish to send audio to the TV.

5. 3D GLASSES EMITTER

Use this jack for the special IR emitter supplied with 3D glasses. The emitter will send a signal that synchronizes your 3D glasses with the screen display. See page 25

6. DVI/PC INPUT AUDIO

When connecting a DVI device to one of the TV’s HDMI inputs, use these jacks for left and right analog audio.

7. AVR AUDIO OUTPUT

Use AVR AUDIO OUTPUT to send analog audio of the current program to an analog A/V surround sound receiver or stereo system. Digital audio from digital channels and HDMI devices is converted to analog audio by the TV for output on this jack. This is the only audio connection needed to the TV if using an analog A/V receiver or stereo system.

Headphones. These jacks can also be used for head- phones that accept standard line level audio signals. An adapter may be required.

8. DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT

This output sends Dolby Digital or PCM digital audio to your digital A/V surround sound receiver. Incoming analog audio is converted by the TV to PCM digital audio. If you have a digital A/V receiver, in most cases this is the only audio connection needed between the TV and your A/V receiver.

9. IR–NetCommand Output

837 Series. Connect IR emitters to this jack to send control signals to external IR remote-controlled devices.

10. RS-232C

837 Series. Use the RS-232C interface to receive control signals from compatible home-theater control devices. See www.mitsubishi-tv.com for a list of control signals for this interface.

11. USB (837 Series)

The TV can read JPEG photo files and mp3 music files from a USB device connected to the USB port.
