Connecting Your Cable or Satellite Box
2.2.1
Using HDMI
Cable and Satellite Boxes that have a HDMI digital interface should be connected to the HDMI input of
the Plasma TV for optimal results.
Connecting your Cable or Satellite Box (Best):
1. Turn off the power to the Plasma TV and HDTV Set-Top Box.
2. Connect a HDMI cable to the HDMI output of your HDTV Set-Top Box and the
other end to the HDMI 1 Input (white color area) at the rear of the Plasma TV.
3. Turn on the power to the Plasma TV and HDTV Set-Top Box.
4. Select HDMI 1 using the INPUT button on the remote or side of the Plasma TV,
or directly by pressing the HDMI button on the Remote Control.
Note: To maintain the display quality, use a VIZIO certified HDMI cable that is 10 meters or less. See
www.vizioce.com or call 1-888-VIZIOCE (1-888-849-4623) for details.
Note:
a) The HDMI input on the Plasma TV supports High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection
(HDCP). HDCP encrypts the transmission between the video source and the digital display
for added security and protection.
b) If you are already using the HDMI 1 input for another component, or you do not want to use
the HDMI 1 input for the Set-Top Box, you can connect the Set-Top Box to the HDMI 2
connection.
c) Refer to your HDTV Set-Top Box user manual for more information about the video output
requirements of the product or consult your cable or satellite operator.
