Connecting a Device with HDMI (Best)
High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) technology is an uncompressed digital connec-
tion that carries both video and audio data by way of an integrated mini-plug cable. Since
HDMI technology is based on Digital Visual Interface (DVI), the jack on the back of your TV is
also compatible with devices that have a DVI output jack.
Using the example of a set-top box:
If your set-top box has an HDMI jack, connect an HDMI cable. Connect an HDMI cable to
the HDMI2/DVI INPUT jack on the back of the TV (or the HDMI1 jack on the back or HDMI3
on the side of the TV if it is more convenient) and to the HDMI Out jack on the backof the
device.
-OR-
If your set-top box has a DVI jack, connect an HDMI cable and an HDMI/DVI adapter.
1. Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI2/DVI INPUT jack on the back of the TV.
2. Attach an HDMI/DVI adapter to the end of the HDMI cable, then connect the adapter to
the DVI Out jack on the set-top box.
3. Since you’re using an HDMI/DVI adapter, you need to connect separate AUDIO cables to
the DVI AUDIO right and left jacks on the back of the TV and to the R and L AUDIO jacks
on the back of the device.
