HDMI connection

HDMI (high-definition multimedia interface) allows you to enjoy high-definition digital images and high-quality
sound by connecting the TV unit and the devices.
HDMI-compatible equipment (*1) with an HDMI or DVI output terminal, such as a set top box or a DVD player, can be
connected to the HDMI terminal using an HDMI compliant (fully wired) cable.
HDMI is the world’s first complete digital consumer AV interface complying with a non-compression standard.
If the external device has only a DVI output, connect to the HDMI terminal via a DVI to HDMI adapter cable (*2).
When the DVI to HDMI adapter cable is used, connect the audio cable to the audio input terminal.
Audio settings can be made on the “HDMI1 in” or “HDMI2 in” menu screen. (p. 32)
Applicable audio signal sampling frequencies (L.PCM): 48 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 32 kHz
(*1): The HDMI logo is displayed on an HDMI-compliant device.
(*2): Enquire at your local digital device retailer shop.
Caution
Use with a PC is not assumed.
All signal is reformatted before being displayed on the screen.
If the connected device has an aspect adjustment function, set the aspect ratio to “16:9”.
This HDMI connector is “type A”.
A device having no digital output terminal may be connected to the input terminal of either “COMPONENT”, “S
VIDEO”, or “VIDEO” to receive analog signals.
The HDMI input terminal can be used with only the following image signals: 480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i and 1080p.
Match the output setting of the digital device.
