Connecting Your Cable or Satellite Box
Using HDMI
Cable and Satellite Boxes that have a HDMI digital interface should be connected to the HDMI input of
the LCD HDTV for optimal results.
Note: To maintain the display quality, use a VIZIO certified HDMI cable. Length is available up to 10
or call 1-888-VIZIOCE (1-888-849-4623) for details.
Connecting your
Cable or Satellite Box (Best)
1.
Turn off the power to the LCD HDTV 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 Input (green color area) at the rear of the LCD HDTV.
3.
Turn on the power to the LCD HDTV and HDTV Set-Top Box.
4.
Select HDMI using the INPUT button on the remote or side of the LCD HDTV, or directly by
pressing the HDMI button on the Remote Control.
Note:
The HDMI input on the LCD 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.
If you are already using the HDMI1 input for another component, or you do not want to use the
HDMI1 input for the Set-Top Box, you can connect the Set-Top Box to the HDMI2, HDMI3 or
HDMI connection.
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.
