How to Connect: TV + Component with DVI or HDMI

High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is an uncompressed digital interface that carries both video and audio data by way of an integrated mini-plug cable. Since HDMI is based on Digital Visual Interface (DVI), the jack on the back of your TV is also compatible with DVI components.

1.To connect your TV to a component with a DVI jack, use an HDMI cable and an HDMI/DVI adapter.

A.Connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI/DVI INPUT jack on the back of the TV. Attach the HDMI/DVI adapter to the end of the HDMI cable, then connect the adapter to the DVI Out jack on the back of the component.

B.Since you’re using an HDMI/DVI adapter, you need to connect Audio left and right cables to the R and L jacks on the back of the component and to R and L Audio jacks that aren’t in use on the back of the TV.

C.Go to the DVI Audio Input option in the Audio Connections menu to select which Audio Input you’re using.

2.To connect your TV to a component with an HDMI jack, use an HDMI cable.

Connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI/DVI INPUT jack on the back of the TV and to the HDMI Out jack on the back of the component.

Viewing the Component

1.Turn on the TV and the component you want to view.

2.Press the TV button on the remote control.

3.Press the INPUT button on the remote control to select the HDMI/DVI Video Input Channel.

Note: You can set up the TV to automatically tune to the correct Video Input Channel. This is called Auto Tuning. (See Chapter 3 for more information).

This resolution significantly enhances the viewing experience, especially when watching movies or sporting events. Some RCA models even embrace 4K Ultra HD, offering four times the pixel resolution of standard Full HD, bringing enhanced clarity and a more immersive experience.

In terms of technology, RCA HDTVs utilize LED backlighting, which improves contrast and brightness while maintaining energy efficiency. This lighting technology allows for thinner screens, making RCA TVs both sleek and modern, while providing a broad color spectrum that contributes to stunning picture quality. Many RCA models also support HDR (High Dynamic Range), enabling deeper contrasts between light and dark, which amplifies the realism of the images displayed.

RCA HDTVs often come with multiple connectivity options, including several HDMI ports, USB inputs, VGA, and Ethernet, facilitating easy integration with a range of external devices. This compatibility allows users to connect gaming consoles, streaming devices, and sound systems effortlessly.

For enhanced user experience, RCA incorporates smart TV features in many of its models. The intuitive user interface provides easy navigation through applications and settings.
