Optical Connections; Hdmi (Arc) Connections - Medion LIFE E64058 Bedienungsanleitung

NOTE
Pieces of equipment like stereo receivers or television sets usually
have one red and one white audio output socket. These are usu-
ally marked OUT, AUDIO OUT, LINE OUT or similar.

8.2. Optical connections

The OPTICAL connection can be used for digital amplifiers or television sets
(see connection C in diagram). You will need an optical digital cable (fi-
bre-optic cable – not supplied with the product – available from specialist
retailers).
1. Set the audio device to a medium volume. Then switch it off.
2. Remove the protective cap from the optical connection. Plug the connec-
tor into the OPTICAL socket on the soundbase.
3. Plug the connector into the corresponding digital output socket on your
digital receiver or television set.
NOTE
If no audio signals are emitted, switch the output audio format on
your output device to PCM mode (Pulse Code Modulation).

8.3. HDMI (ARC) connections

You will need an HDMI cable (see connection D in diagram). The HDMI cable
is not supplied with the product.
1. Set the audio device to a medium volume. Then switch it off.
2. Connect the HDMI port to the HDMI IN socket on your television set.
3. Activate the ARC and CEC functions and switch the audio output to PCM on
the connected devices, referring to the operating instructions for these
devices.
With ARC it is possible with two connected devices not only to receive audio
signals via HDMI but to send them back again via the same cable.
CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) enables the communication of all devic-
es connected via HDMI. This connection then allows you to control the vol-
ume and mute setting with the remote control for the television.
NOTE
ARC only works with devices which are HDMI ARC-capable and
with an HDMI 1.4 cable (or higher).
