The connection diagram in the inside cover shows you how to connect the Cinema Link peripherals with each other.
Notes:
- Besides the TV at least one peripheral should be provided with the Cinema Link functionality to benefit from this feature.
- To take advantage of the highest quality of multi channel Surround sound it is advisable that you have a Cinema Link audio receiver
connected.
- The peripherals connected don’t need to see the TV remote control in the Cinema Link system. The commands given to the TV are
automatically passed to the other peripherals.This allows you to put the peripherals behind the doors of a cabinet or to place them in
another room.
- To enjoy Digital Surround playback, the digital device (e.g. DVD) should be connected to the digital input of the audio receiver with a
separate cinch audio cable 4.
Cinema Link is a new Philips feature in which the TV, the audio receiver and
other video peripherals communicate with each other (on condition they all
are equipped with the Cinema Link functionality and are connected via a
eurocable).They automatically offer the highest quality combination of picture
and multi channel surround sound to create your own Home Cinema.
With one key on the remote control, with which you can control all Cinema
Link products, your total Cinema Link system will be started and the DVD or
video recorder will start to play and the audio receiver will provide the sound
(on the condition Cinema link is enabled) on behalf of the TV.
The TV can function as the centre speaker of your system, making a separate
centre speaker unnecessary.
By pressing the standby key B on the remote control for at least 3
seconds, the complete Cinema Link system will be switched to
standby.
Note:The Cinema Link
functionality is only available
with devices of the Cinema Link
(P50.3) generation !
Recommended:
Do not use the AC outlet at
the back of the audio receiver
to power the DVD or the
video recorder in a Home
Cinema configuration.
& Cinema Link is switched on as soon as the audio receiver and the TV are switched on. If necessary, Cinema Link may be
switched off or on again only on the audio receiver. See the instructions for use of your audio receiver.
Important:When Cinema Link is switched on all audio commands control the audio receiver instead of the TV.
é The message CINEMALINK ON is displayed on the audio receiver and on the TV. Now the CinemaLink system is
activated.
Note: it is recommended to disable CinemaLink when the receiver is used to record a CD e.g. or when using a headphone when
others are watching TV.
Now you can adjust the initial TV settings for optimal surround sound and install the audio channels before starting up
one of the CinemaLink devices.The system information about country choice, menu language and picture format you set
up during the installation of the TV is transferred to the audio receiver automatically.
TV as centre speaker
See the Instructions for Use of the TV, Setup, Source menu, Centre input.
Use the test tone function in the Speakers menu to have a reference of the loudness of the separate speakers.
Note: If you want the loudspeakers of your TV to act as centre speaker, also connect a cinch audio cable (not supplied) 2 to the
centre IN connector of your TV.
