`An HDMI cable outputs digital video/audio, so you don’t need to connect an audio cable.

`If the player is connected to your TV in the HDMI 720p, 1080i, or 1080p output mode, you must use a

High speed (category 2) HDMI cable.

`HDMI outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV.

If your TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), random noise appears on the screen.

`Depending on your TV, certain HDMI output resolutions may not work. Please refer to the user manual of

your TV.

`When you connect the player to the TV using the HDMI cable for the first time or to a new TV, the HDMI

output resolution will be automatically set to the highest supported by the TV.

`A long HDMI cable may cause screen noise. If this occurs, set Deep Color to Off in the menu.

`If you use an HDMI-to-DVI cable to connect to your display device, you must also connect the Digital Audio

Out to an audio sytem to hear audio.

B. Connecting to an Audio System

C. Connecting to a Network

This player lets you use network based services, such as BD-LIVE, and download software upgrades when it is connected to a network. We recommend using a Broadband modem (with integrated router) or an IP router for the connection. For more information on router connections, refer to the user manual of the router or contact the router manufacturer for technical assistance.

Wireless Network

1. You can connect this unit to a network via a wireless connection. See page 8.

2. Set the network options. See pages 10~12.

NOTE

✎

`If your wireless router supports DHCP, this player can use a DHCP or static IP address to connect to the

wireless network.

`Set your wireless router to Infrastructure mode. Adhoc mode is not supported.

`The player supports only the following wireless security key protocols:

- WEP (OPEN/SHARED), WPA-PSK (TKIP/AES), WPA2-PSK (TKIP/AES)

`Select a channel on the wireless router that is not currently being used. If the channel set for the wireless

router is currently being used by another device nearby, it will result in interference and communication failure.

`If you select the Pure High-throughput (Greenfield) 802.11n mode and set the Encryption type on your

router to WEP, TKIP or TKIP-AES (WPS2Mixed), the player will not support a connection in compliance with new Wi-Fi certification specifications.

`Wireless LAN, by its nature, may cause interference, depending on the operating conditions (router

performance, distance, obstacles, interference by other radio devices, etc).
