•
VGA/SVGA/XGA
Connect your device with a VGA, SVGA, or XGA output, to
this jack using a 15 pin D-sub cable.
•
AUDIO (Stereo mini jack)
Obtains sound when a device is connected to
the SVGA jack. Use a 3.5 mm stereo mini pin cable (sometimes referred to as
1/8” stereo mini pin) to connect a device to your TV.
HDMI 1 and 2 INPUTS
(some TV models only have one HDMI Input)
High-
Definition Multimedia Interface/Digital Visual Interface Provides an uncom-
pressed digital interface that carries both video and audio data by way of an
integrated mini-plug cable. Since HDMI is based on Digital Visual Interface (DVI),
the jack on the back of your TV is also compatible with DVI devices.
Note:
If you connect a device with a DVI jack to one of the HDMI inputs,
you’ll need an HDMI to DVI adapter. Also, connect audio cables to an
input that is not in use. An example is shown on page 11. Then go to the
Advanced Audio
menu and select
DVI Audio Input
to choose the input
you’re using to receive audio.
WIRED REMOTE CONTROL (IR) (available on some models)
This jack is
for connecting a wired remote control system, which is primarily for professional
installers. If you’re using the remote that was included with your TV, don’t plug
anything into this jack or the TV won’t respond to the remote.
DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT (OPTICAL)
Use a digital optical cable (or SPDIF
cable) to connect your TV to a compatible Dolby Digital or PCM receiver or
decoder. Dolby Digital Technology offers theatre-quality sound (six audio
channels). If you own a receiver that uses an optical cable input, you can use an
optical cable to connect the TV to that receiver for the best sound quality. Go to
the
Digital Audio Out
screen in the
Audio
menu to select
Auto Select
or
PCM
as
the output for this jack.
Note:
This TV’s optical digital output jack fully complies with the
international standard governing this type of jack (IEC958), and is
designed for connection to a Dolby Digital (AC-3
®
or PCM) receiver or
decoder. Older equipment, some of which is not fully compliant with
IEC958, may not be compatible with the Dolby Digital bitstream. Such
a connection using anything other than a Dolby Digital (AC-3 or PCM)
receiver or decoder could create a high noise level, causing damage to
headphones or speakers.
ANTENNA INPUT
Used to connect a coaxial cable to receive the signal from an
off-air antenna.
CABLE INPUT
Used to connect a coaxial cable to receive the signal from cable
or a cable box.
