Other Operations Switching between digital and analog audio (INPUT MODE) When you connect equipment to both digital and analog audio input jacks on the receiver, you can fix the audio input mode to either of them, or switch from one to the other, depending on the type of material you intend to watch. 1 Turn INPUT SELECTOR on the receiver to select the input. You can also use the input buttons on the remote control. 2 Press INPUT MODE repeatedly on the receiver to select the audio input mode. The selected audio input mode appears on the display panel. • Auto: Gives priority to digital audio signals. If there are more than one digital connection, HDMI audio signals have priority. If there are no digital audio signals, analog audio signals are selected. When TV input is selected, priority is given to the Audio Return Channel (ARC) signals. If your TV is not compatible with the ARC function, the digital optical audio signals are selected. If the Control for HDMI functions of both the receiver and the TV are not activated, the ARC does not work. • OPT: Specifies the digital audio signals input to the OPTICAL jack. • COAX: Specifies the digital audio signals input to the COAXIAL jack. • Analog: Specifies the analog audio signals input to the AUDIO IN (L/R) jacks.
