NOTE

•HDMI signals are digital. HDMI signals cannot be converted into analog signals.

•The HDMI ZONE function is only compatible with the HDMI 1-6 IN connectors. It is not compatible with the HDMI 7 IN connector.

For example, if you connect this unit to an HDMI-compatible TV with a single HDMI cable, this unit automatically converts input signals other than HDMI video signals to HDMI signals to output from the HDMI connector to the TV. This unit outputs only one type of video signals, so video signals output from this unit to the TV remain unchanged even if you switch to a device that outputs another type of video signals for playback. Therefore, you do not need to switch the video input on the TV. Furthermore, this unit converts the input analog video signals such as video and component video signals to high resolution digital HDMI video signals for output, improving the quality of the video.

If your TV does not support HDMI connections, connect this unit to TV with analog video connectors. This unit can not convert HDMI input signals to analog video signals, so when inputting from an HDMI device, use component video or video input connectors.

If the device connected to this unit is equipped with an HDMI connector, it is recommended to use HDMI connections. Connections with an HDMI cable offer the following benefits that can not be achieved with other connection methods.

•High quality playback by transmitting audio and video via digital signals

HDMI connections can transmit high definition video and high quality audio formats adopted by Bluray disc players (Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, dts-HD, dts-HD Master Audio).

HDMI connections also convey information required for playback between devices. The information is used for copyright protection and TV resolution recognition, the ARC function, the HDMI control function, etc.

•Transmission of audio and video signals with a single HDMI cable

Previous connections require multiple audio and video cables, but HDMI connections require only a single HDMI cable to transmit audio and video signals. This allows wires in a home theater system, which tend to be complicated, to be more organized.

•Mutual control through the HDMI control function (vpage 95)

This unit and the HDMI device connected via HDMI can be linked to perform operations such as power control, volume control, and input source switching.

•Other video and audio functions, such as 3D video playback, Content Type, the ARC function, are supported (vpage 12).

•There is more than one version of HDMI standard. The supported functions and the performance vary according to the version. This unit complies with the HDMI standard, supporting the ARC and 3D playback functions. To enjoy these functions, the HDMI device connected to this unit also needs to use the same version of the standard.

•The audio signal from the HDMI output connector (sampling frequency, number of channels, etc.) may be limited by the HDMI audio specifications of the connected device regarding permissible inputs.

•When connecting a TV that does not support the ARC function, an audio cable connection is required in addition to the HDMI cable. In this case, refer to “Connecting a TV” (vpage 15) for the connection method.

For the ARC function, see “About ARC (Audio Return Channel) function” (vpage 9).

Connecting to a device equipped with a DVI-D connector

The DVI-D (Digital Visual Interface) method is also used for video transmission via digital signals. This is developed mainly for computers, and some AV devices such as projectors are equipped with this interface. To output HDMI video signals to a DVI-D video input compatible device, use an HDMI/DVI conversion cable, which converts HDMI video signals to DVI signals.

Required system

nnBroadband internet connection

nnModem

Device that connects to the broadband circuit and conducts communications on the Internet. A type that is integrated with a router is also available.

nnRouter

When using this unit, we recommend you use a router equipped with the following functions:

•Built-in DHCP server

This function automatically assigns IP addresses on the LAN.

•Built-in 100BASE-TX switch

When connecting multiple devices, we recommend a switching hub with a speed of 100 Mbps or greater.

nnEthernet cable

(CAT-5 or greater recommended)

•Use only a shielded STP or ScTP LAN cable which is available at retailer.

• The normal shielded-type Ethernet cable is recommended. If a flat-type cable or unshielded-type cable is used, other devices could be affected by noise.

•If you have an Internet provider contract for a line on which network settings are made manually, make the settings at “Network” (vpage 135).

•With this unit, it is possible to use the DHCP and Auto IP functions to make the network settings automatically.

•When using this unit with the broadband router’s DHCP function enabled, this unit automatically performs the IP address setting and other settings.

When using this unit connected to a network with no DHCP function, make the settings for the IP address, etc., at “Network” (vpage 135).

•When setting manually, check the setting contents with the network administrator.

NOTE

•A contract with an ISP is required to connect to the Internet.

No additional contract is needed if you already have a broadband connection to the Internet.

•The types of routers that can be used depend on the ISP. Contact an ISP or a computer shop for details.

•DENON assumes no responsibility whatsoever for any communication errors or troubles resulting from customer’s network environment or connected devices.

•This unit is not compatible with PPPoE. A PPPoEcompatible router is required if you have a contract for a type of line set by PPPoE.

•Do not connect an NETWORK connector directly to the LAN port/ Ethernet connector on your computer.

•To listen to audio streaming, use a router that supports audio streaming.
