What is OPTICAL?

• An optical cable converts an
electric signal into an optical
light signal, and transmits it
through glass fibers. S/PDIF is
a transmission system of digital
audio in the form of a light wave
that uses a glass conductor.

➢

Each Digital Audio System has a different back panel configuration.

➢

When the receiver (home theater) is set to On, you can hear sound output from the TV’s Optical jack. When the TV is displaying a

DTV(air) signal, the TV will send out 5.1 channel sound to the Home theater receiver. When the source is a digital component such
as a DVD and is connected to the TV via HDMI, only 2 channel sound will be heard from the Home Theater receiver.

If you want to hear 5.1 channel audio, connect the DIGITAL AUDIO OUT (OPTICAL) jack on the DVD player or Cable/Satellite Box

directly to an Amplifier or Home Theater, not the TV.
