Optional Connection: HD M A/V Receiver
These are two different ways your HD Monitor uses a device
to hear audio.
Connect audio cables to either the FIXED or VARIABLE
AUDIO L and R OUTPUT jacks and to the audio input jacks
on the A/V receiver.
Note:
If you've connected your VCR or other device
to the FIXED output jacks on the HD Monitor, use the
VARIABLE input jacks for your A/V Receiver.
• FIXED provides fi xed-level audio output from the HD
Monitor. This audio output is ideal for connecting to
an A/V receiver that has its own volume control.
• VARIABLE provides variable-level audio output.
Volume levels can be controlled by the volume
controls on the HD Monitor and HD Monitor remote
control.

Optional Connections: Front Input Jacks
The HD Monitor has front input jacks for convenience in connecting a camcorder, digital camera, or
video game system. Look for a hinged door and press to open the cover. Please note the illustration
below is just an example of how these jacks might appear.
PHONES
Allows you to connect headphones to listen to
the sound coming from the HD Monitor. To adjust volume
control of the headphones, press the VOL+ or VOL- button
(the volume display appears). Press the arrow up or down
button (the headphone volume display appears), then
press the right or left arrow button to adjust the headphone
volume.
VIDEO (in)
Receives video from another device, such as a
camcorder, video game console, or VCR.
L/MONO and R AUDIO
Receives audio from another
device, such as a camcorder, video game console, or VCR.
S-VIDEO (in)

Notes:
The front panel illustration shows a typical front panel layout. The exact look may be different from
the one on the front of your HD Monitor.
If you use the Front Button Block feature, the front panel no longer provides access to the menus. The Front
Button Block feature disables all front panel buttons but not the jacks. For more information, see Chapter 3.
When you plug in headphones, the HD Monitor’s internal speakers are muted. Use the VOL up or down
button to control the volume. When connecting a device that uses a monaural cable, such as some
camcorders, use the L/MONO input jack to get sound from both speakers.
