5 CONNECTING YOUR QIP RECEIVER

Video Connection Options

The QIP receiver offers several different video connection options. Component video, HDMI, and IEEE-1394 allow you to view both High-Definition and Standard- Definition TV programming. Composite video, S-Video, and RF coaxial connections allow you to view only Standard-Definition TV programming. See Section 4 Connections for visual connection options.

To determine whether your TV features component video, HDMI, IEEE-1394, S-Video, or composite video, check the manual supplied with your TV.

Use the guidelines below to determine the best video connection for your home entertainment system. Note: Only (1) video connection to the TV is required. HD video can only be viewed with HDMI, IEEE-1394, or component video connections.

HDMI or IEEE-1394 — HDTV and SDTV

HDMI and IEEE-1394 offer higher quality HD video than component video.

If your TV has an HDMI input, this is for both audio and video. Connect an HDMI cable to the TV and to the HDMI connector on your QIP receiver.

HDMI and IEEE-1394 outputs provide video and audio, so no separate audio connections are required if you plan to use your TV’s speakers as the primary audio source.

If your TV has a DVI input, connect a DVI-to-HDMI adapter or cable to the HDMI out connector on the QIP receiver and the DVI-HDTVconnector on your TV.

DVI does not provide audio. A separate audio connection must be made.

Component video (YPbPr) — HDTV and SDTV

The YPbPr connectors on your QIP receiver provide HDTV and SDTV component video.

S-Video — SDTV

If a component video input is not available on your TV, use the S-Video connection.

Video (also referred to as composite video) — SDTV

If an S-Video input is not available on your TV, use the composite video (video) connection.

RF Output — SDTV

If no other input is available on your TV, the RF Output of the QIP7100 Series can be connected to the Antenna or Cable Input on your TV. The RF Output carries both video and audio. Set your TV to channel 3 or 4.
