display may appear in black and white or green because the HD1000 is outputting a Component Video signal. This is normal. The following steps cover selecting the correct output signal. (Composite is normally a single yellow RCA jack on your TV. On the HD1000, the composite connector is shared with the "Y" component connector.) 1. Connect a composite video cable to the HD1000, making sure the cable is connected to the green output jack labeled "Y." Note: This is the Y ouput jack for Component video - it is a shared jack with Composite. 2. Connect the other end of the Composite cable to your display. 3. Turn on the display and select the input to which you have just connected the cable. 4. Connect the power cable to the back of the HD1000 and plug it into an electrical outlet. 5. You'll see a Busy light blinking, and a startup graphic will appear on your screen. Once the HD1000 is fully started up, the Busy light will stop, the Power light will begin to blink and you will see the initial setup screen. 6. If you do not see the startup and setup screens, check the input selection on the display, then re-check the cable connection. If there is still no picture, go to "Connecting Without On-Screen Display" below. 7. You should see the Video Output Format setup screen on your display at this point (in black and white or green), and it should read "Component 480i." The Power LED will begin blinking with the mode number referenced in the previous table. 8. Proceed to Composite 480i by pressing the right arrow button on the front panel or remote control until you arrive at that selection. Note: The Power LED will change the number of times it blinks to correspond to the current mode as you change selections. 9. Once the proper format has been selected, press Select. Then use the down arrow to move the yellow highlight to the Accept button and press the Select key to confirm your choice.

Turn on the display and select the input corresponding to the connection you have just made. 3. Connect the power cable to the back of the HD1000 and plug it into an electrical outlet. 4. Wait a minute or so for the front-panel Power LED to begin to blink. It blinks the number of times corresponding to the video mode in the table on page 4. 5. Press the right arrow button on the front panel of the HD1000 and check the display for a picture. If no picture appears after about five seconds, press the right arrow again.
