Chapter 2: Connecting your TV
Connecting an HDMI
™
or DVI device
to the HDMI input
The HDMI input on your TV receives digital audio and
uncompressed digital video from an HDMI source device, or
uncompressed digital video from a DVI (Digital Visual
Interface) source device.
This input is designed to accept HDCP (High-Bandwidth
Digital-Content Protection) program material in digital form
from EIA/CEA-861-D–compliant
[1]
consumer electronic
devices (such as a set-top box or DVD player with HDMI or
DVI output).
The HDMI input can accept and display VGA, 480i (60Hz),
480p (60Hz), 720p (60Hz), 1080i (60Hz), and 1080p (24Hz/
60Hz) signal formats. For detailed signal specifications, see
page 109.
Note:
•
Some of legacy HDMI sources may not work properly with
your latest HDMI TV, due to new standard adoption. Please
try to set Off the following three options (Lip-Sync Latency,
Deep Color, xvYCC). Your legacy HDMI source should
operate properly with your TV. See page 75.
•
Supported Audio format : Linear PCM, sampling rate 32/
44.1/48kHz
To connect an HDMI device, you will need:
•
one HDMI cable (type A connector) per HDMI device
– For proper operation, it is recommended that you use an
HDMI cable with the HDMI Logo (
).
– If your HDMI connection is capable of 1080p and/or your
TV is capable of refresh rates greater than 60Hz or
supports Deep Color™, you will need a Category 2 cable.
Conventional HDMI/DVI cable may not work properly with
this mode.
– HDMI cable transfers both video and audio. Separate
analog audio cables are not required (see illustration).
– See “Setting the HDMI
™
audio mode” (
-
page 48).

Select the HDMI 1, HDMI 2, or HDMI 3 video input source on
the TV.*

To select the video input source, press
INPUT
on the remote control
(

page 27). To program the TV remote control to operate other
devices, see Chapter 3.
To connect a DVI device, you will need:
•
one HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable (HDMI type A connector)
per DVI device
– For proper operation, the length of an HDMI-to-DVI
adapter cable should not exceed 9.8 ft (3m). The
recommended length is 6.6 ft (2m).
•
one pair of standard analog audio cables per DVI device
– An HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable transfers video only.
Separate analog audio cables are required (see
illustration).
– See “Setting the HDMI
™
audio mode” (
-
page 48).
Note:
To ensure that the HDMI or DVI device is reset properly,
it is recommended that you follow these procedures:
•
When turning on your electronic components,
turn on the
TV first
, and then the HDMI or DVI device.
•
When turning off your electronic components,
turn off the
HDMI or DVI device first
, and then the TV.
[1] EIA/CEA-861-D 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.
