Warning - Static Sensitive Components
To avoid possible damage to MyHD Board and/or other system components from static discharge, always discharge your body's static
electricity prior to handling MyHD Board or other system components.
Discharging can be done either by using a properly grounded anti-static wrist strap or by simply touching the chassis of a grounded
(plugged-in) computer. In addition, always handle the card by its edges whenever possible, to avoid mechanical damage to delicate
components on the board.
To install the MyHD board, follow the steps listed below:
1. With the power off, remove your computer cover and locate an
available PCI slot.
2. Remove the screw attached to the slot cover and remove the slot cover plate.
3. Before handling the MyHD card, ground yourself by touching the power supply box inside your computer
4. Position your card directly above the PCI slot and insert the card firmly into the slot. Care should be taken to press it evenly and snugly
into its slot.
5. Use the enclosed jumper cable to connect the audio output of
the MyHD card to the LINE IN,
AUX or CD input of your PC sound card or motherboard.
**If the audio output is set by the jumper cable in the MyHD
application program, you have to connect the jumper cable
between the MyHD card and a sound card. However, you do not
need to do it when the audio output is set by wave in the MyHD
application program.(Refer to Audio Configuration ).
6. Replace the cover on the computer.
7. Attach the antenna lead from your rooftop antenna or cable system to the antenna input of the MyHD card.
Choose your display configuration
8. Connect the remote control receiver to 9-pin serial port.
A dual monitor configuration displays the standard Windows desktop on your PC monitor along with full-screen output from your MyHD
card on a separate HDTV or VGA monitor. MyHD supports the following resolutions and horizontal frequencies on any monitor equipped
with standard RGBHV or YPbPr inputs:
- 1080i(1920x1080 interlaced, 33.7kHz)
- 1024p(1024x768 progressive, 48.3kHz)
- 720p(1280x720 progressive, 44.9kHz)
- 480p(720x480 progressive, 31.5kHz)
- 480i(720x480 interlaced, 15.75kHz)
A single monitor configuration displays the output of your MyHD card in either a resizable window or full-screen(giving you the ability to
switch between the regular Windows desktop and MyHD's full-screen display), by using the enclosed VGA loop through cable with
external A/V connector as shown(connecting the VGA output of your PC to the MyHD card, which then passes the combined video signals
to your PC monitor).
You can watch and capture video from any external source
(including VCR, DVD, laserdisc, etc.) by connecting them to the
VGA loop through cable with external A/V connector. Simply
connect the video and audio outputs from your external source to
the S-Video and/or RCA input jacks.
MyHD also supports SPDIF for digital audio output. Simply
connect a digital audio cable from the RCA output jack on the
MyHD card to the SPDIF input of any Dolby AC-3 5.1 channel
audio amplifier.
