INPUT 4 COMPOSITE INPUT  Provides connection to an additional optional video device, such as a DVD player or satellite receiver. The jacks are the same as described above for INPUT 2.

FIXED/VARIABLE AUDIO OUTPUTS

•L and R  Provides right front and right rear mixed sound to the right input, and left front and left rear mixed sound to the left input.

SVGA INPUT (might not be available on your TV)

•VGA/SVGA/XGA  Connect your device with a VGA, SVGA, or XGA output, to this jack using a 15 pin D-sub cable.

•AUDIO (Stereo mini jack)  Obtains sound when a device is connected to the SVGA jack. Use a 3.5 mm stereo mini pin cable (sometimes referred to as 1/8” stereo mini pin) to connect a device to your TV.

HDMI 1 and 2 INPUTS (some TV models only have one HDMI Input) High- Definition Multimedia Interface/Digital Visual Interface  Provides an uncom- pressed 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 devices.

Note: If you connect a device with a DVI jack to one of the HDMI inputs, you’ll need an HDMI to DVI adapter. Also, connect audio cables to an input that is not in use. An example is shown on page 11. Then go to the Advanced Audio menu and select DVI Audio Input to choose the input you’re using to receive audio.

WIRED REMOTE CONTROL (IR) (available on some models)  This jack is for connecting a wired remote control system, which is primarily for professional installers. If you’re using the remote that was included with your TV, don’t plug anything into this jack or the TV won’t respond to the remote.

DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT (OPTICAL)  Use a digital optical cable (or SPDIF cable) to connect your TV to a compatible Dolby Digital or PCM receiver or decoder. Dolby Digital Technology offers theatre-quality sound (six audio channels). If you own a receiver that uses an optical cable input, you can use an optical cable to connect the TV to that receiver for the best sound quality. Go to the Digital Audio Out screen in the Audio menu to select Auto Select or PCM as the output for this jack.

Note: This TV’s optical digital output jack fully complies with the international standard governing this type of jack (IEC958), and is designed for connection to a Dolby Digital (AC-3®or PCM) receiver or decoder. Older equipment, some of which is not fully compliant with IEC958, may not be compatible with the Dolby Digital bitstream. Such a connection using anything other than a Dolby Digital (AC-3 or PCM) receiver or decoder could create a high noise level, causing damage to headphones or speakers.

ANTENNA INPUT   Used to connect a coaxial cable to receive the signal from an off-air antenna.

CABLE INPUT   Used to connect a coaxial cable to receive the signal from cable or a cable box.
