Connections for a Standard-De
fi
nition TV (SDTV)
When using the set-top with an SDTV, you must make
one
of the following connections to
view content. Some SDTVs may not have all these connections. Refer to the user manual
for your TV and the cabling diagrams in this manual for more detailed information.
Although all connections provide you with quality service, we list the connections in our
recommended order.
Notes
:
• The labeling on your set-top or SDTV may vary slightly from the illustrations shown below.
• Some cables shown in the connection diagrams may not be included with this set-top.
The YPbPr (red, blue, and green)
connectors can provide standard-de
fi
nition
component video signals to an SDTV. A
separate audio connection is also needed.
See the connection diagram on
page 18
for
an example.
Note
: To connect YPbPr to an SDTV, you
must select the output video format.
