1.8 INTERCONNECTS
These illustrations show audio, video, IR, and trigger connectors used between source components, the
processor, displays, and power amplifiers. RCA coaxial cables with 75-ohm impedance are equally suitable
for analog video and digital audio.
Before calling for technical support due to bad, intermittent, or no picture via HDMI:
1080p uses twice the bandwidth that 720p and 1080i do – make sure that the cable is suitable for the
application otherwise the picture may contain pixel dropouts or not play at all.
Use HDMI Category 2 cables, also known as “v1.3 certified”. This is a requirement for all connecting devices
including extenders when connecting a display that supports Deep Color (10- or 12-bit). Connecting devices
that worked in an older setup may not work with Deep Color. If the source allows Deep Color to be turned
off, start troubleshooting by turning it off.
12-bit Deep Color that works at 1080p24 may not work at 1080p50 or 1080p60.
Be careful when connecting HDMI cables. The connector should easily slide in the jack – do not insert it on
an angle and do not force it. Each connector contains 19 delicate pins and damaged pins can damage jacks.
Such damaged jacks are not covered by warranty. If your HDMI cables have been connected enough times
that they are about to wear out, we recommend that you replace them.
If using DVI connection note that cables with DVI connection on one end and HDMI connection on the other
are more reliable than DVI-HDMI adapters. If you are having a connection problem and an adapter is in use,
start troubleshooting by eliminating the adapter.
Cable and satellite receivers: Some disable their component video output once HDMI is connected. To use
the cable/satellite box in a secondary zone that uses component video, connect the box to the processor via
component, not HDMI.
Older cable and satellite receivers: HDMI connection may be problematic especially when output resolution
changes between SD, 720p, and 1080i according to the channel. In such a case use component video
connection instead, with coaxial or optical connection for audio.
