Using the example of a set-top box:
• If your set-top box has a DVI jack, connect an HDMI cable and an
HDMI/DVI adapter.
A. Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI1 Input jack on the back of the TV.
B. Attach an HDMI/DVI adapter to the end of the HDMI cable, then connect the
adapter to the DVI Out jack on the set-top box.
C. Connect audio using a 3.5 mini headphone to Audio left/right cable since the DVI
cable does not transfer sound. Connect the 3.5 mini headphone to the PC INPUT
AUDIO jack on the back of the TV and the Audio left and right cables to the R and L
jacks on the back of the device.
• If your set-top box has an HDMI output jack, connect an HDMI cable.
Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI INPUT on the back of the TV and to the HDMI
Out jack on the back of the device.
