Connections & Setup

Connecting the Device

High-Defi nition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) technology is an uncompressed digital connection that carries both video and audio data by way of an integrated mini-plug cable. Since HDMI technology is based on Digital Visual Interface (DVI), the jack on the back of your TV/DVD is also compatible with devices that have a DVI output jack.

Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI Input jack on the back of the TV/DVD and to the HDMI Out jack on the back of the device.

• If your set-top box has a DVI jack, connect an HDMI cable and an

HDMI/DVI adapter.

A. Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI Input jack on the back of the TV/DVD.

B. Attach an HDMI/DVI adapter to the end of the HDMI cable, then connect the adapter to the DVI Out jack on the set-top box.

C. Since you’re using an HDMI/DVI adapter, you need to connect a 3.5 mm stereo mini-pin to audio left/right cable. Connect the mini-pin end to the PC/HDMI AUDIO jack on the back of the TV/DVD and the other end to the R and L jacks on the back of the device.
