[\\\\\\OPTICAL\IN\\\\\\]
This is the preferred connection for best sound and true surround sound.
Connect the optical cable (not included) from the OPTICAL IN
terminal on the main unit to the OPTICAL OUT terminal on your TV.
This unit can decode the surround signals received from your TV, cable
or satellite STB. Refer to the operating instructions for the TV, cable or
satellite STB for the settings necessary to output its audio from the
digital audio output to your home theater system. Only Dolby Digital and
PCM can be played with this connection.
≥After making this connection, make settings to suit the type of audio
from your digital equipment (B 9).
[Note]
If you have various sound sources (such as Blu-ray player, DVD
recorder, VCR, etc.), connect them to the available inputs on the TV and
the TV output should then be connected to the AUX or OPTICAL IN
terminal ([PT70]: AUX/TV terminal) of the main unit.
Conserving power
The main unit consumes a small amount of power, even when it is in
standby mode (approx. 0.48 W). To save power when the unit is not to
be used for a long time, unplug it from the household mains socket.
You will need to reset some memory items after plugging in the main
unit.
[Note]
The included AC mains lead is for use with the main unit only.
Do not use it with other equipment. Also, do not use cords for other
equipment with the main unit.
