HDMI FUNCTION HDMI Auto Detection Function
The product's video output will automatically change to HDMI mode when connecting an HDMI cable while power is on. HDMI (High Denition Multimedia Interface) HDMI is an interface that enables the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single connector.

It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc) and a display device (TV, projector. etc). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent unauthorized copies from being made.
When a HDMI cable is connected, composite (Video) and component video signals are not output.
