[35] Preparation 4. Connecting audio-visual devices and the antennas (aerials)
Notes on connecting cables
Be sure to disconnect the AC power cord (mains lead) before connecting cables.
It is not necessary to connect all of the cables. Connect cables according to the
availability of jacks on the connected device.
Use a High Speed HDMI cable. 1080p, Deep Color (Deep Colour), 4K or 3D images may
not be displayed properly if you use a Standard HDMI cable.
We do not recommend using an HDMI-DVI conversion cable. If you connect an HDMI-DVI
conversion cable to a DVI-D device, the sound and/or image may be lost. Connect
separate audio cables or digital connecting cables, then reassign the input jacks if the
sound is not output correctly.
When connecting optical digital cables, insert the plugs straight until they click into place.
Do not bend or tie optical digital cables.
Hint
All of the digital audio jacks are compatible with 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz and 96 kHz
sampling frequencies.
If you want to connect several digital devices, but cannot find an unused
input
In this case, reassign the input jacks.
