OPTIMIZING YOUR DCT* FOR HIGH DEFINITION TV

The DCT* enables you to view HD programming. HDTV provides up to twice the color resolution and up to six times the sharpness of standard definition TV.

The Motorola DCT* delivers high-quality video for HDTVs using the

Y Pb Pr (component), DVI-D, and IEEE 1394 connectors. This section describes how to use the on-screen display to set your DCT* to automatically optimize both standard and HD video based on your HDTV and personal preferences.

If you use the IEEE 1394 connector, no adjustments to your settings are required.

You can use your on-screen menu to configure your HD settings for TV type, DVI and/or Y Pb Pr video output, and closed captioning.

To access your HD settings:

1Ensure that your DCT* is plugged into a power outlet and is turned off.

2Press the MENU key on the front panel. If your TV is on, the on-screen display menu appears listing the settings you can configure.
