CONNECTING A COMPONENT SOURCE WITH HDMI or DVI CAPABILITY TO INPUT 1 or INPUT 2
1. Connect the HDMI or DVI to HDMI connection cable from the output of the HDTV set top box or DVD player to the HDMI input as
shown on the TV set below. When using a component with DVI output, you also have to connect the AUDIO OUT (R/L) of the
component to the AUDIO IN (R/L) of INPUT 1.
2. Press the INPUTS button, then select INPUT 1 from the INPUTS menu to view the program from the HDTV set top box or DVD
player. The VIDEO OSD label disappears automatically after approximately four seconds.
3. Select Antenna from the INPUTS menu to return to the previous channel.

NOTES: 1. Completely insert the connection cord plugs when connecting to rear panel jacks. The picture and sound that is
played back will be abnormal if the connection is loose.
2. The HDMI input on INPUT 1 contains the copy protection system called High-bandwidth Digital Content
Protection (HDCP). HDCP is a cryptographic system that encrypts video signals when using HDMI connections to
prevent illegal copying of video contents.
3. HDMI is not a "NETWORK" technology. It establishes a one-way point-to-point connection for delivery of
uncompressed video to a display.
4. The connected digital output device controls the HDMI interface so proper set-up of device user settings determines
final video appearance.
