INTRODUCING THE SETUP WIZ RD
What is the Setup Wizard?
The Explorer
®
HDTV Setup Wizard is an on-screen program that helps you set up your high-definition terminal to receive the
best picture quality that the HDTV supports. The Setup Wizard is currently available on select Explorer
Communications Terminal set-top models.
Before you begin
Before you begin to set up your HD terminal, you may want to have available the user's guide that came with your HDTV
for reference.
Is it necessary to use the Setup Wizard?
It depends on how the HDTV is connected to the set-top. If the Y, Pb, Pr ports on the back of the set-top are connected
to one of the video ports on the HDTV, you should use the Setup Wizard to ensure that your HDTV receives the best
picture quality that it supports.
Note: Make a note of which video input port the set-top is connected to on the HDTV.
For example: Video input port 6.
If the HDTV is connected to the composite port on the back of the set-top, it is not necessary to use the Setup Wizard.
Broadcasts coming in through the composite port automatically adjust to the picture size and formats supported by the HDTV.
If the HDTV is connected to the DVI or HDMI port on the back of the set-top, it may not be necessary to use the Setup
Wizard. TV programs coming in through the DVI or HDMI port of the HDTV are automatically adjusted if the broadcasted
format is supported by the HDTV. If the format is not supported, use the Setup Wizard.
Notes:
•
The analog Y, Pb, Pr ports
become inactive when the
HDTV is connected to
the DVI or HDMI port.
•
If the HDTV is connected
to the DVI or HDMI port on
the back of the set-top and
you see this alert message
on the screen, it means that
the HDTV and the set-top
are not compatible. If this
occurs, reconnect the
set-top to the Y, Pb, Pr
ports on the set-top.
