Introducing the Setup Wizard
Before you begin to set up your HDTV, you may want to have available the users
guide that came with your HDTV for reference.
Before You Begin
What Is the Setup
Wizard?
The Explorer HDTV Setup Wizard is an on-screen program that helps you set up
your high-definition TV (HDTV) to receive the best picture quality that the HDTV
supports. The Setup Wizard is currently available on select Explorer
®
Digital
Home Communications Terminal set-top models.
If the HDTV is connected to the DVI port on the back of the set-top, it may not be
necessary to use the Setup Wizard. TV programs coming in through the DVI
port of the HDTV are automatically adjusted if the broadcasted format is
supported by the HDTV. If the format is not supported, use the Setup Wizard.
Notes:
•
The analog Y, Pb, Pr ports become inactive when the HDTV is
connected to the DVI port.
Is It Necessary To
Use the Setup
Wizard?
If the HDTV is connected to the composite port on the back of the set-top, it is not
necessary to use the Setup Wizard. Broadcasts coming in through the composite
port automatically adjust to the picture size and formats supported by the HDTV.
It depends on how the HDTV is connected to the set-top. If the Y, Pb, Pr ports on
the back of the set-top are connected to one of the video ports on the HDTV, you
should use the Setup Wizard to ensure that your HDTV receives the best picture
quality that it supports. Note: Make a note of which video input port the set-top is
connect to on the HDTV. For example: Video input port 6.
•
If the HDTV is connected
to the DVI port on the
back of the set-top and
you see this DVI alert on
the screen, it means that
the HDTV and the set-top
are not compatible. If this
occurs, reconnect the
set-top to the Y, Pb, Pr
ports on the set-top.
