How to Connect: TV + Component with DVI or HDMI
High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) is an uncompressed digital interface that carries both video and audio data by
way of an integrated mini-plug cable. Since HDMI is based on Digital Visual Interface (DVI), the jack on the back of your TV
is compatible with DVI components.
1.
To connect your TV to a component with a DVI jack, use an HDMI cable and an HDMI/DVI adapter.
A. Connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI/DVI INPUT jack on the back of the TV. Attach the HDMI/DVI adapter to the
end of the HDMI cable, then connect the adapter to the DVI Out jack on the back of the component.
B. Since you’re using an HDMI/DVI adapter, you need to connect Audio left and right cables to the R and L jacks on the
back of the component and to R and L Audio jacks that aren’t in use on the back of the TV.
C. Go to the
DVI Audio Input
option in the
Audio Connections
menu to select which Audio Input you’re using.
2.
To connect your TV to a component with an HDMI jack, use an HDMI cable.
Connect the HDMI cable to the HDMI/DVI INPUT jack on the back of the TV and to the HDMI Out jack on the back of
the component.
Viewing the Component
1.
Turn on the TV and the component you want to view.
2.
Press the TV button on the remote control.
3.
Repeatedly press the INPUT button on the remote control until the HDMI/DVI Video Input Channel is selected.
Note:
You can set up the TV to automatically tune to the correct Video Input Channel. This is called Auto Tuning.
