A DVI-to-HDMI cable or DVI/HDMI adaptor and HDMI cable and
audio cables are required. These are not included with the TV.
They may be available at your local electronics retailer.
1. Connect the DVI-to-HDMI cable (recommended) (or
DVI/HDMI adaptor with an HDMI cable) from the PC
DVI output to HDMI 2 on the TV back panel.
NOTE: If you are using a DVI/HDMI adaptor, it is
important to connect the adaptor to the DVI device
for best performance.
2. Connect a set of audio cables from AUDIO OUT on
the PC back panel to INPUT/DVI Analog Audio 2 on
the TV back panel. The red cable connects to the R
(right) channel, and the white cable connects to the L
(left) channel.
NOTE: The HDMI connection supports copy
protection (HDCP). Some devices require connecting
to an analog input first, in order to view on-screen
menus and select DVI as the ouput. Please review
your equipment instructions for DVI connectivity and
compatibility.
