28 Using MovieMate With Other Equipment
Playing MovieMate Audio Through an
External Audio System
You can connect MovieMate to an audio receiver, 5.1 Stereo Surround Sound System, or
digital audio recorder. To output sound from MovieMate, the external equipment needs to
have an optical audio input port.
Note: For additional convenience, Epson has developed an optional Wireless 5.1 Surround Sound
System adapter for the MovieMate 30s Series. To find out more about this accessory, go to
www.epson.com/homeentertainment.
You will also need an optical digital cable, which may be provided with your external
equipment, or may be purchased from an electronics store.
1. Remove the protective cap from the
Optical Audio-Out port and keep it in a safe place.
2. Make sure the equipment is turned off, then connect the cable as shown:
3. Turn on your audio equipment and play your movie, music, or other presentation with
sound from MovieMate.
4. You can adjust the volume input level by pressing and holding the button for
approximately 2 seconds.
LEVEL 1 appears on MovieMate’s display window. Press and
hold the button again to select
LEVEL 2 and increase the volume.
You may also need to change the
Digital Audio Output or Downmix settings in the
Audio Setup menu. Make sure you use the
Stream/PCM setting for surround sound
systems. You can also use any of MovieMate’s other audio controls, as described on
pages 42 through 43.
Note: After you disconnect your external audio equipment, make sure you replace the cap on the
Optical Audio Out port and close MovieMate’s port compartment cover.
