CONNECTING DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT TO A MULTI-CHANNEL RECEIVER
Dolby
®
Digital Audio provides 5.1 channels of surround
sound (five full-range channels [5] and one low-frequency
effect channel [.1]). A fiber optics cable is used to carry
the 5.1 surround sound (for low-noise signal transfer).
1
Using a Fiber Optics cable, connect the TV’s Digital
Audio Output to the Digital Audio Input of a Multi-
Channel Receiver. (Fiber optics cable is not supplied.)
2
Press the POWER key to turn on the TV, then turn on
the external equipment.
NOTES: When making the connection, do not pinch or kink the
fiber optics cable.
Red light visible at the Digital Audio Output does not
necessarily indicate that Dolby 5.1 audio is available.
Digital audio is made up of light pulses that the human
eye cannot detect. Dolby 5.1 audio is available at the
Digital Audio Output only when received as part of a
Digital antenna signal.
