Connecting an HDMI and a DVI device
• This TV is not intended for connection to and should not be used with a PC.
• When turnning on your electronic components, turn on the TV first, and then the HDMI or DVI device.
• When turnning off your electronic components, turn off the HDMI and DVI device first, and then the TV.
• Before connecting an HDMI and a DVI device, remove the back terminal covers (see page 10).
• This model may not be compatible with features and/or specifications that may be added in the future.
To connect an HDMI and a DVI device
The HDMI input on your TV receives digital audio and uncompressed digital video from an HDMI device and
uncompressed digital video from a DVI device.
This input is designed to accept HDCP program material in digital from EIA/CEA-861/861B compliant consumer
electronic devices (such as a set top box and DVD player with HDMI and DVI output).
The HDMI input is designed for best performance with 1080i (50 Hz/60 Hz) high-definition video signals, but will also
accept and display 480i, 480p, 576i, 576p and 720p (50 Hz) signals.
• HDMI: High-Definition Multimedia Interface
• DVI: Digital Video Interface
• HDCP: High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection
• EIA/CEA-861/861B compliance covers the transmission of uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital
content protection, which is being standardized for reception of high-definition video signals. Because this is an
evolving technology, it is possible that some devices may not operate properly with the TV.
To connect an HDMI device:
One HDMI cable (type A connector)
For proper operation, it is recommended that you use a
short HDMI cable.
HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate
analog audio cables are not required.
Some CDVs (video CDs) may not output digital audio
signals. In that case, you may hear sound by connecting
analog audio cables.
