Connecting HDTV — Single Connection for Video/Audio
This section describes steps to connection the DCX to an HDTV using connections
options that combine video and audio into a single cable.
Cable In
Connect an RF coaxial cable to the cable wall outlet and the cable in connector on the
DCX set-top.
HDMI
If the TV has an HDMI input, this is for both audio and video if you are using the TV
speakers. Connect a Standard HDMI cable to the TV and to the HDMI connector on the
DCX set-top.
IEEE-1394
If the HDTV has an IEEE-1394 connector, you can use the IEEE-1394 for both the video
and audio connection:
Connect an IEEE-1394 cable to the IEEE-1394 connector on the HDTV and DCX set-top.
Note: On-screen graphics will not be displayed when you are using the IEEE-1394
connection on the rear panel of the DCX set-top.
If there is an audio/video receiver and you are not using the TV’s speakers, go to
Connecting the DCX Set-top to an A/V Receiver – Audio
.
Because HDMI and IEEE-1394 provide both video and audio output, no additional audio
connections to the TV are required if you use either of these connections.
