Connecting to an HD set top box or DVD
high definition player using HDMI (best
performance)
For the best video and audio performance,
connect to digital A/V equipment using HDMI, an
uncompressed, all digital audio/video interface
found on today’s digital set top boxes and high
definition DVD players. This pure digital
technology offers enhanced high definition video
and digital audio through a single cable.
To connect external, digital A/V equipment to
your TV with an HDMI cable:
1 Connect an optional HDMI cable from the
HDMI output of your digital A/V equipment to
the HDMI input jack on the back of your TV.
2 Press the INPUT button on your remote
control to select the video input to view
(Video 6 (HDMI)).
Connecting to an HD set top box using a
DVI to HDMI adapter (best performance)
Older HD set top boxes use an uncompressed
all digital video interface (DVI) that offers
enhanced high definition video. Because no
sound is available through the DVI interface, you
must connect the audio signal with standard
audio cables. Your TV does not have a DVI input
jack, so in order to use the DVI interface, you
must purchase an HDMI to DVI adapter
(dongle).
To connect external, digital A/V equipment to
your TV with an HDMI to DVI adapter:
1 Connect the DVI cable from the DVI output on
your digital A/V equipment.
2 Plug the DVI to HDMI adapter into the HDMI
input jack on the back of your TV.
3 Plug the connector of the DVI cable into the
DVI to HDMI adapter.
4 Connect the white/red audio cables from the
AUDIO (L/R) output jacks on your A/V
equipment to the AUDIO (L/R) jacks located
below the HDMI interface on the back panel
of your TV.
5 Press the INPUT button on your remote
control to select the video input to view
(Video 6 (HDMI)).
