SET TOP BOX
Connecting Your Cable or Satellite Box
You have four options for connecting your cable or satellite box to your HDTV: HDMI, Component,
Composite, or Coax (RF). Based on your home theater configuration, you can decide which option is the
right one for you. Refer to your set-top box user manual for more information about the video output
requirements or consult your cable or satellite operator.
Using HDMI (Best)
Cable and Satellite Boxes that have an HDMI digital interface should be connected to the HDMI input of
the HDTV for optimal results.
Note: To maintain the display quality, use a VIZIO certified HDMI cable. This cable is available in 6, 15,
and 30 foot lengths. See www.vizio.com or call 1-888-VIZIOCE (1-888-849-4623) for details.
1. Turn off the power to the HDTV and HDTV Set-Top Box.
2. Connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI output of your HDTV Set-Top Box and the other end to an
HDMI input on the back of the HDTV.
3. Turn on the power to the HDTV and HDTV Set-Top Box.
4. Select HDMI 1 or HDMI 2 using the INPUT button on the remote control, or directly by pressing

HDCP encrypts the transmission between the video source and the digital display for added
security and protection.
! If you are already using the HDMI1 input for another device, or you do not want to use the HDMI1
input for the Set-Top Box, you can connect the Set-Top Box to another HDMI connection.

requirements of the product or consult your cable or satellite operator.
