Note

Because HDMI is an evolving technology, it is possible that some devices with an HDMI input may not operate properly with this unit.

When using an HDCP-incompatible display device, the image will not be viewed properly.

Among the devices that support HDMI, some devices can control other devices via the HDMI connector; however, this unit cannot be controlled by another device vice the HDMI connector.

The audio signals from the HDMI connector (including the sampling frequency, the number of channels and bit length) maybe limited by the device that is connected.

Among the monitors that support HDMI, some do not support audio output (for example, projectors). In connections with device such as this unit, audio signals are not output from the HDMI output connector.

When this unit’s HDMI connector is connected to a DVI-D compatible monitor (HDCP compatible) with an HDMI-DVI converter cable, the signals are output in digital RGB.

If the connected equipment is not compatible with HDMI BITSTREAM, DTS sound will not be output.

When the power failure occurs, or when you unplug the unit, some problems in the HDMI setting might occur.

Please check and set the HDMI setting again.
