encryption  key in  hexadecimal  numbers.  Find this  hexadecimal  key in
the  router software on  your  PC.  Write down the  first  key of  the
WEP  keys  list  and  enter it on  TV  with  the  remote control. If  the

							5.2About cables
Cable quality
Before  you  connect devices  to  the  TV,  check which connectors  are
available  on  the  device.  Connect the  device to  the  TV  with  the
highest quality  connection  available.  Good quality  cables ensure a
good  transfer of  picture and  sound. Read the  other chapters of
About cables.
The connections diagrams  shown  in  Help > Connections >
Connect  devices are recommendations.  Other  solutions are
possible.
HDMI
An HDMI  connection has  the  best picture and  sound quality.  One
HDMI  cable  combines  video and  audio signals.  Use  an  HDMI  cable
for  High Definition  (HD) TV  signals.  An HDMI  cable  transfers picture
and  sound signals  in  only one  direction. Do  not  use an  HDMI  cable
longer than 5m.
EasyLink  HDMI -CEC
If  your  devices  are connected with  HDMI  and  have EasyLink,  you  can
operate them with  the  TV  remote control. Read more about
EasyLink  in  Help > Setup > Devices > EasyLink  HDMI -CEC.
HDMI -ARC
If  you  have a  Home  Theatre System with  an  HDMI -ARC  (Audio
Return  Channel) connection, you  can  connect this  device with  the
TV  with  only a  HDMI  cable.  Use  the  HDMI1  ARC  connection.
You  can  skip the  audio cable  that  is added  normally  (the  cable  that
connects the  TV  Digital audio Out  to  the  device Digital audio In).
The return  audio connection  in  this  HDMI -ARC  connector  is built -
in.  You  do not  need a  special HDMI  cable.
You  can  leave the  ARC  channel switched  on  if  you  use the
additional  digital audio cable.  Still  you  can  switch off  HDMI -ARC.  To
switch off  the  ARC  in  the  HDMI  1 connection, press  h > Setup >
TV settings > EasyLink > HDMI  1 ARC,  select Off and  press  OK.
DVI  to HDMI
Use  a  DVI to  HDMI  adapter if  your  device only has  a  DVI
connection. Use  one  of  the  HDMI  connections and  add  an  Audio
L/R cable  to  Audio  In VGA/HDMI for  sound, on  the  back  of  the  TV.
Copy  protection
A  DVI and  HDMI  cable  support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital
Contents Protection).  HDCP is a  copy protection  signal that
prevents copying content  from a  DVD disc or Blu-ray  Disc. Also
referred  to  as  DRM  (Digital Rights  Managament).
Y Pb Pr
Use  the  Component Video YPbPr connection  together  with  an
Audio Left and  Right connection  for  sound.
Match the  YPbPr  connector  colours  with  the  cable  plugs when  you
connect. YPbPr  can  handle  High Definition  (HD) TV  signals.
Scart
A  scart cable  combines  video and  audio signals.  Scart  connectors  can
handle  RGB video signals  but cannot  handle  High Definition  (HD)
TV  signals.
