running.
READ THIS FIRST
1. Determine if you are connecting to a:
High-Definition TV (HDTV) or
monitor
Standard-Definition TV
2. Determine if you are connecting the audio to a home theater receiver or directly to the TV:
• For an HDMI or IEEE-1394 video connection, no additional audio connections to the TV are required.
• For a DVI video connection, additional audio connections to the TV are required.
• If the receiver or TV has a digital audio (S/PDIF) input, use the Optical Audio (S/PDIF) output. Otherwise, use the left and right (RCA
phono) audio outputs.
3. Locate the cabling diagram(s) that best match the configuration.
4. Connect the audio and video cables in a manner matching that diagram.
5. Connect the Cable In terminal to the coaxial cable wall outlet.
6. Connect the power cord to the set-top and the AC wall outlet.
7 . Perform the operational check for the remote control.
8. Optimize the high-definition settings.
Additional information for adjusting user settings
The DCX700 User Settings menu allows you to adjust the video, audio, and closed captioning configuration of the set-top.
With the set-top in the power on state, use the DCX700 remote to access the User Settings Menu by pressing Power followed by Menu (within
two seconds).
For more detailed instructions on changing the set-top configuration through the User Settings menu, please refer to the DCX700 User Guide
available online at http://motorola.com/homevideo/support.
DCX700 Quick Start Guide
Use the HDMI, component video (YPbPr), or IEEE-1394 outputs. No other video connection supports HDTV.
If the TV has no HDMI input but does have a DVI input, connect a DVI-to-HDMI adapter or cable to the HDMI
out connector on the DCX set-top and the DVI input connector on the TV.
Connect the composite video output using a composite video (RCA phono) cable.
