Refer to your TV and VCR user’s guides and the cabling diagrams in this guide for more detailed connection

information. The following table lists the connections in order of performance, beginning with the connection

Required Connections to an HDTV (choose one)

The PrPbY/V connectors can provide high-

deﬁ nition component video signals to an HDTV.

See page 15 for an example.

Note: You can use the HD Setup Wizard on the

4250HD to set the HD mode and select the output

video format (480i, 480p, 720p, 1080i) that will

match the full capabilities of your HDTV.

Some HDTVs have only RGB connectors. If you

have one of these HDTVs, you need an RGB

adaptor. Check with your cable service provider

for information about acquiring an RGB adaptor,

or you can purchase the adaptor at your local

electronics supplier.

Some HDTVs have a High-Deﬁ nition Multimedia

Interface (HDMI) connector. The HDMI connector

provides both a digital video and audio connection.

See page 13 for an example.

The HDMI connector can provide the connection

to an HDTV with a DVI input. If your HDTV has a

Digital Visual Interface (DVI) connector, you will

need an HDMI-to-DVI adaptor. You will also need

to connect a separate audio connection.

See page 14 for an example.
