audio output of the equipment to the L/MONO jack on the
TV.
• You can enjoy Video Games with this TV. However
shooting games, where the player shoots at a target on the

Connecting an HDMI or a DVI device
The HDMI input on your TV receives digital audio and
uncompressed digital video from an HDMI device or
uncompressed digital video from a DVI device.
This input is designed to accept HDCP program material in
digital from EIA/CEA-861/861D compliant consumer
electronic devices (such as a set top box or DVD player with
HDMI or DVI output).
The HDMI input is designed for best performance with 1080i
(50 Hz/60 Hz), 1080p (50Hz/60Hz) high-definition video
signals, but will also accept and display 480i, 480p, 576i, 576p,
720p (50 Hz/60 Hz) and VGA signals.
• HDMI: High-Definition Multimedia Interface
• DVI: Digital Video Interface
• HDCP: High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection
• EIA/CEA-861/861D compliance covers the transmission of
uncompressed digital video with high-bandwidth digital
content protection, which is being standardized for
reception of high-definition video signals. Because this is an
evolving technology, it is possible that some devices may
not operate properly with the TV.
• E-EDID: Enhanced-Extended Display Identification
• VGA: VESA 640 5 480 @ 60 Hz
• L-PCM: Linear-Pulse Code Modulation
