INTRODUCTION
Toshiba HD-C26H Digital High Definition Receiver opens up to a new world of free-to-air terrestrial HDTV (High
Definition Television) and SDTV (Standard Definition Television) programs. The receiver can receive channels
from both VHF and UHF bands. All the major terrestrial free-to-air station numbers currently available in your
area are listed in the on-screen menu. To watch a channel, simply select the channel number and you will be
accessing a wide range of high quality digital programs.
The receiver is fully MPEG 2 / DVB-T compliant, delivering high definition crystal-sharp video and Dolby® Digital
sound. As it supports a channel frequency range of 51-858MHz, it can be easily programmed for all the channels
within the VHF and UHF frequency bands. To find out the channel frequencies in your area, please contact your
local service provider.
FEATURES
XHD 1080i/720p/576p Capability
High Definition (HD) brings a wide-screen format to the home television as well as a sharper picture. This unit
accepts all DTV formats, including 1080i, 720p and 576p.
XHDMI™1
Toshiba HD-C26H incorporates the High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) technology to provide the best
video and audio quality over a single cable.
XWEEKLY EPG
Programs for the whole week are available in the EPG provided the broadcasters broadcast these data.
XVideo Format Auto-Switch
The HD-C26H receiver has the capability of automatically switching the output video format to match the native
video format coming from the broadcaster. This reduces possible distortion due to up/down conversions.
XDolby® Digital2
Dolby® Digital is the surround sound technology used in theatres showing the latest movies, and is now
available to reproduce this realistic effect in the home. You can enjoy motion pictures and live concert TV
programs with this dynamic realistic sound by connecting HD-C26H to a 6-channel amplifier equipped with a
Dolby® Digital decoder.
XPIP (Picture-in-Picture)
This feature gives you the ability to view 2 different live channels (from the same frequency) at the same time.
The PIP window can be moved to any corner of the screen or be formed as a double window.
XTeletext/Fastext
Fastext is a method of viewing Teletext pages by related subjects grouped by the broadcast studio. You can
access any given topic shown on the screen simply by pressing the corresponding colored text select button on
the remote control. Note that the Fastext feature is not available in Australia.

INSTALLING THE RECEIVER
Follow steps A to C below. Your receiver will be ready to display digital programs on your TV.
STEP A: CONNECTIONS
DO NOT PLUG THE RECEIVER INTO THE MAINS YET.
Before you use this receiver, it is necessary to connect it to your TV.
1CONNECTING TO TV
1-1.
Connection to Antenna
Disconnect the antenna cable from your TV and connect it to the “ANT. IN” terminal on the back of the
receiver.
1-2.
“RF OUT” Connection to TV or VCR
This “RF OUT” provides you a RF loop-through function to receive analogue TV programs as well as digital
programs. Use an RF coaxial cable (not supplied) to connect the HD-C26H “RF OUT” terminal to TV’s or VCR’s
antenna input.
Before connecting or disconnecting the antenna cable, unplug the receiver, VCR, TV and
antenna booster, if any.

Connections to TV – Video Connection
In the accessory box, you will find two sets of cables: One is the component video cable (with red, green and
blue connectors) and the other is the Audio/Video cable (with yellow, white and red connectors).
For better video quality, it is recommended that you use the HDMI cable, the Mini D-Sub 15-pin cable or the
RGBHV video cable (with 5 RCA connectors). These cables are not included in the HD-C26H package.
HD MODE Switch selection is essential for several outputs. Refer to the HD MODE Switch table on page 54 for
making the correct switch selection according to your output connection.
You have 6 choices for connecting the video output from the receiver to your TV. Use only one of the following
connections (with (a),(b) or (c) being the best choice):
(a) HDMI connection: If your TV has HDMI input, use a HDMI cable (not supplied) to connect the
receiver to your TV. HDMI supports video and multi-channel audio in a single cable; therefore
separate connection for audio is not necessary.

Note: Because HDMI is an evolving technology, it is possible that some TVs may not operate properly
with the receiver.
(b) Mini D-Sub 15-pin connection: If your TV has a RGB Mini D-Sub 15-pin video input connector, use a
Mini D-Sub 15-pin cable (not supplied) to connect the receiver to your TV. Set the HD MODE Switch
(refer to page 54) to RGB, and then connect the RGB connector on the rear of the receiver to the
corresponding socket on the TV.
Do not connect any PC monitor to the receiver via Mini D-Sub 15-pin cable.

Connections to TV – Audio Connection
For audio connections, you have two choices. You can connect the receiver to your TV or to an audio amplifier
equipped with a Dolby® Digital decoder. If you do not have an external amplifier equipped with a Dolby® Digital
decoder, use the red and white connectors of the Audio/Video cable included in the package. Connect the audio
connectors from “ANALOG AUDIO OUT” on the rear of the receiver to the corresponding jacks on the TV: red to
red (right audio) and white to white (left audio).
Note: If your TV has only one audio input jack, connect either the right or left audio connector to the audio jack.
Do not connect the yellow connector to TV if using HDMI, RGB, component video or S-Video connector.
