Use the information in this chapter to set up and configure your Vision system.
To get started you need to:
1. Connect audio and video cables to Vision and your widescreen high definition TV or home theater A/V receiver
2. Connect Vision to your Ethernet network
You can connect Vision to a widescreen TV that has:
1. An HDMI port using an HDMI cable for both video and audio
2. Component video (Y, Pb, and Pr) ports using a component video cable with green, blue, and red connectors, and an audio cable
3. A DVI port using an HDMI-to-DVI cable for video and an analog or digital audio cable. (audio is not passed over a DVI connector so you have to connect audio
separately)
Note:
Vision’s startup screens are displayed on the compo-
nent video output only. It may take up to two minutes for
the video to be available on the HDMI output.
You can also connect Vision to a home theater A/V receiver.
