ADVANCED HIGH-DEFINITION CABLE BOX TO DTV HOOKUPS
Choose the best connection available. You must hookup the HD Cable box to either Component or HDMI jacks to watch HD programming in “high-def.”

An RF connection from this device to the DTV offers only basic resolution and is best reserved for an antenna to receive local HD channels.
Refer to the user’s guide that came with your HD Cable box for available hookups and operating instructions.

1 Connect an HDMI cable to the HD Cable Box and to one of the DTV HDMI Input jacks.

2 Press the INPUT key on the remote to select HDMI 1, HDMI 2, or HDMI 3 to match your connection.

3 Use the Cable Box’s remote to change channels.

NOTE: Use any HDMI jack to connect your HDMI equipped Device.


DVI-TO-HDMI CONNECTIONS (INPUT1 ONLY)

1 Connect a DVI-to-HDMI adapter cable to the HD Cable Box and to DTV HDMI INPUT1.

3 Press the INPUT key on the DTV’s remote to select HDMI 1.
