e.g.)

rear of this unit

@ iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii

RF coaxial cable

cableTV

company

Once connections are completed, turn on the unit and begin initial setup. Channel scanning is necessary for the unit to memorize all available channels in your area.

(Refer to"Initial Setup" on page 12.)

Note:

• For your safety and to avoid damage to this unit, please unplug the RF coaxial cable from the antenna input jack before moving the unit.

• If you use an antenna to receive analog TV, it should also work for DTV reception. Outdoor or attic antennas will be more effective than

settop versions.

• Toswitch your reception source easily between antenna and cable, install an antenna selector.

• If you connect to the cable system directly, contact the CATVinstaller.

[Connection to Cable Box or Satellite Box]

Use an RF coaxial cable to connect the antenna input jack of the unit to the antenna output jack of the cable/satellite box.

e.g.)

rear of this unit

RF coaxial cable

cableTV

company

cable/satellite box

Required cables and connecting methods differ depending on the cable/satellite box. For more information, please contact your cable/satellite provider.

[] External Device Connection

[HDMI Connection]

HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) transports high definition video and multi-channel digital audio through

a single cable. It ensures that the content sent from the source to the unit is of the highest possible resolution.

Use an HDMI cable to connect the unit to external video devices equipped with HDMI output jack.

e.g.) rear of this unit

HDMI cable

DVD player with the HDMI output jack

Note:

• This unit accepts 480i/480p/720p/1080i video signals, and 32kHz/44.1kHz/48kHz audio signals.

• This unit accepts only 2 channel audio signal (LPCM).

• You need to select "PCM" for the digital audio output of the device connected or check the HDMI audio setting. There may be no audio output if you select "Bitstream" etc.

• This unit only accepts signals compliant with EIA861.

[HDMI-DVI Connection]

Use an HDMI-DVI conversion cable to connect the unit to external video devices equipped with DVI output jack.

e.g.)

HDMI-DVI To HDMI1 input jack only rear of this unit

conversion cable

cable box or satellite box with the DVI output jack

Note:

• This unit accepts 480i/480p/720p / 1080i video signals.

• HDMI-DVI connection requires separate RCA audio connection as welL

• Audio signals are converted from digital to analog for this connection.

• DVI does not display 480i image that is not compliant with EIA/CEA-861/86 lB.

[Component Video Connection]

RCA component video connection offers better picture quality for video devices connected to the unit. Use an RCA component video cable to connect the unit to external video devices equipped with component video

output jacks.

If you connect to the unit's COMPONENT1 or COMPONENT2 video input jacks, connect an RCA audio cable to the audio L/R jacks of COMPONENT1 or COMPONENT2 accordingly.

e.g.)

Note:

• This unit accepts 480i/480p/720p/1080i video signals.

• When the noise appears on the TVscreen, disconnecting the VGAcable may reduce it.

[S-video Connection]

S-video connection offers good picture quality for video devices connected to the unit.

Use an S-video cable to connect the unit to external video devices equipped with S-video output jack. If you connect to the unit's VIDE01 S-video or VIDE02 S-video input jack, connect an RCA audio cable to the audio L/R

jacks of VIDE01 orVlDE02 accordingly.

e.g.)

[Video Connection]

RCA video connection offers standard picture quality for video devices connected to the unit. Use an RCA video cable to connect the unit to external video devices equipped with video output jack.

If you connect to the unit's VIDE01 or VIDE02 video input jack, connect an RCA audio cable to the audio L/Rjacks of VIDEO 1 orVlDEO 2 accordingly. When the audio jack of the video device is monaural, connect an RCA audio cable to the audio L input jack.

e.g.)
