Using a Smartphone via HDMI/MHL
What is HDMI/MHL?
HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a digital interface for audio and video sources. HDMI is a
digital replacement for analog video standards.
Mobile High-Definition Link (MHL) is an industry standard for a mobile audio video interface that allows
consumers to connect mobile phones, tablets, and other portable consumer electronics (CE) devices to
high-definition televisions (HDTVs) and mobile multimedia receivers.
HDMI/MHL allows you to use the multimedia TFT touch screen to control your mobile device.
Note: It may not be legal to view apps on a smartphone while driving or controlling a vehicle. It
is the drivers responsibility to obey local and federal laws while driving or controlling a vehicle.
Interfacing your Smartphone - Android
Depending on your model and brand of smartphone HDMI / MHL may not be supported. Check your
smartphone documentation for supported features.
Android smartphones will require an app that must be downloaded from Google Play Store. Search for
“Jensen HDMI/MHL Connect” in the search bar.
