Connecting An Hdmi™ Or A Dvi Device To The Hdmi Input - Toshiba 65HC15 Owner's Manual

Connecting an HDMI
The HDMI [1] input on your monitor receives digital
audio and uncompressed digital video from an HDMI
device or uncompressed digital video from a DVI
device.
This input is designed to accept HDCP
material in digital form from EIA/CEA-861/861B–
compliant [4] consumer electronic devices (such as a set-
top box or DVD player with HDMI or DVI output).
The HDMI input is designed for best performance
with 1080i high-definition video signals, but will also
accept and display 480i, 480p, and 720p signals.
NOTE: NEVER CONNECT THIS
MONITOR TO A PERSONAL
COMPUTER (PC).
THIS MONITOR IS NOT INTENDED FOR USE
WITH A PC.
To connect an HDMI device, you will need:
• one HDMI cable (type A connector)
For proper operation, it is recommended that you
use a short HDMI cable. You should not encounter
difficulty if you use an HDMI cable shorter than
16.4 ft (5m).
HDMI cable transfers both video and audio.
Separate analog audio cables are not required (see
illustration below). Some CDVs (video CDs) may
not output digital audio signals. In that case, you
may hear sound by connecting analog audio cables.
However, if you connect analog audio cables with
this connection, the HDMI terminal on the monitor
will not receive the HDMI digital audio signal and
you will hear analog audio only.

HDCP = High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection.

EIA/CEA-861/861B compliance covers the transmission of
uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital
content protection, which is being standardized for reception
of high-definition video signals. Because this is an
evolving technology, it is possible that some
devices may not operate properly with the monitor.
To ensure that the HDMI or DVI device is reset
properly, it is recommended that you follow these
procedures:
• When turning on your electronic components, turn
on the monitor first, and then the HDMI or DVI
device.
• When turning off your electronic components, turn
off the HDMI or DVI device first, and then
the monitor.
To connect a DVI device, you will need:
• one HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable
(HDMI type A connector)
For proper operation, the length of the HDMI-to-DVI
adapter cable should not exceed 9.8 ft (3m). The
recommended length is 6.6 ft (2m).
• one pair of standard analog audio cables
An HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable transfers video only.
Separate analog audio cables are required (see
illustration below).
