39" 1080p, 60Hz, LED Roku TV Setting up a digital audio connection You can connect your TV to an external amplifier, receiver, or soundbar by using either of these two connections: • HDMI 1/ARC-The HDMI Audio Return Channel enables your TV to output digital audio on one of its HDMI connectors. The connected amplifier can also function simultaneously as an input source to your TV, if needed. To use the ARC capability, you must connect an HDMI cable from your amplifier's HDMI ARC connector to the HDMI 1/ARC connector on your TV. You also must: • Be sure your HDMI cable is certified by HDMI. • Enable HDMI ARC under Settings > System > Control other devices (CEC), as explained in Enabling HDMI ARC on page 67. • DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPTICAL)-Your TV has a DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPTICAL) connector that outputs a digital audio signal. To use the optical output, connect a digital optical audio cable from the amplifier to the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPTICAL) connector on your TV. Note Dolby Digital Plus format is not available through the DIGITAL OUTPUT (OPTICAL) output. This format is only available through the HDMI 1/ARC connection. After making the required HDMI ARC or digital optical audio connection, go to Settings > Audio > S/PDIF and ARC option and select the audio format to use. Note In most cases, Auto detect is the best option. Other settings can result in no sound when the content you are viewing does not contain the audio stream type you selected. Controlling other devices through CEC Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) enables your TV and other CEC-compatible home entertainment components to control one another in various ways. First, the CEC-compatible devices must "discover" one another and report their capabilities. After this, one device can control another according to the features you enable. For example, playing a disc on a Blu-ray player could switch your TV to the Blu-ray player's input. Or, powering off your TV could also power off the Blu-ray player and the home theater receiver. Discovering connected CEC devices To discover CEC devices: 1 Make sure that your CEC-compatible components are connected to your TV with a suitable high-speed HDMI cable that supports HDMI ARC and CEC control. 2 Turn on each component and make sure all components have CEC enabled. Tip Some manufacturers have their own branded names for CEC functionality, so you might need to read the product documentation to correctly identify the CEC features of the device. 3 On your TV's Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > System > Control other devices (CEC) and then select Search for CEC devices. Press OK to repeat the discovery process, if necessary. When finished, your TV displays a list of CEC devices that are connected to each HDMI input, as well as any devices that had previously been connected. Your TV remembers the names of multiple CEC devices even when they are no longer connected. If the list is longer than the allowed space, press to see a complete list in a scrollable window. Enabling HDMI ARC HDMI ARC is the audio return channel that is available on one of your TV's HDMI ports. The audio return channel enables you to send a Dolby Digital audio signal back to a home theater receiver that is also sending an audio and video signal into your TV. Using HDMI ARC reduces the number of cables needed and optionally lets you control the volume and mute state of the receiver by enabling system audio control. HDMI ARC is disabled by default. To enable HDMI ARC, in the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > System > Control other devices (CEC), and then highlight HDMI ARC. Press OK to enable or disable the feature. Note Enabling HDMI ARC also enables System audio control. After enabling HDMI ARC, you can disable System audio control if you prefer. www.insigniaproducts.com 67
