center of the screen remain fixed for
an extended period of time, the
amount of light transmission will also
remain varied and as a result the

Connecting HDMI/DVI
- Supports connections between HDMI-connection-enabled AV devices (Set-Top Boxes, DVD players,
AV receivers and digital TVs).
- No sound connection is needed for an HDMI to HDMI connection.
What is HDMI?
- HDMI, or high-definition multimedia interface, is a next-generation interface that enables the
transmission of digital audio and video signals using a single cable without compression.
- “Multimedia interface” is a more accurate name for it especially because it allows multiple channels of
digital audio (5.1 channels).The difference between HDMI and DVI is that the HDMI device is smaller
in size, has the HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Copy Protection) coding feature installed, and
supports multi - channel digital audio.
- Use the HDMI/DVI terminal for DVI connection to an extended device.
You should use the DVI-to-HDMI cable or DVI-HDMI Adapter for the connection, and the
“
R - AUDIO - L” terminal on DVI for sound output.
Connecting Computer
- Connect the D- Sub cable to “PC (PC IN)” on the rear of your set and the other end to the Video Card of
your computer.
- Connect the stereo audio cable to “
