Connecting the Device
High-Defi nition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) technology is an uncompressed digital connection
that carries both video and audio data by way of an integrated mini-plug cable. Since HDMI
technology is based on Digital Visual Interface (DVI), the jack on the back of your TV/DVD is
also compatible with devices that have a DVI output jack.

Using the example of a set-top box:
• If your set-top box has an HDMI jack, connect an HDMI cable.
Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI Input jack on the back of the TV/DVD and to
the HDMI Out jack on the back of the device.
• 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 HDMI Input jack on the back of the TV/DVD.
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. Since you're using an HDMI/DVI adapter, you need to connect a 3.5 mm stereo
mini-pin to audio left/right cable. Connect the mini-pin end to the PC/HDMI AUDIO
jack on the back of the TV/DVD and the other end to the R and L jacks on the back
of the device.
