Step 1: Connections 3 1 Connecting the TV and players Important: The power cord must be connected only after all other connections are completed. HDMI cable connection The unit has many HDMI jacks on its rear panel and each of them corresponds to an input selector button of the same name on the front panel. For example, a Blu-ray Disc player will be connected to the HDMI IN1 jack and the BD/DVD button on the front panel will be used to listen to the playback sound (if the player is CEC compliant, input will be switched automatically). If you add another Blu-ray Disc player, you can use any other jack than HDMI IN1. It is possible to change assignment of the input jacks and input selector buttons. For how to make settings, see the Advanced Manual. To connect the TV and the unit, connect the HDMI OUT MAIN jack of the unit and the HDMI IN jack of the TV using an HDMI cable. With this connection, it becomes possible to display the setting screen of the unit on the TV or transmit video/audio signals from the player to the TV. If your TV supports ARC (Audio Return Channel), it is possible to play the TV sound with the AV receiver's speakers with this connection only. If your TV does not support ARC, you need, in addition to the HDMI OUT MAIN jack connection, a digital optical cable connection between the digital audio out optical jack of the TV and the DIGITAL IN OPTICAL jack of the unit or an analog audio cable connection between the audio output jack of the TV and the VIDEO/AUDIO IN TV/CD jack of the unit. DIGITAL OPTICAL OUT AUDIO OUT TV Audio connection with a TV not supporting ARC   Select an appropriate connection for your TV. The unit supports the HDMI Through function that allows transmission from players to the TV even if the unit is in standby. You have to modify the settings to enable the input selection link with CEC compliant device, connection with ARC compatible TV, and HDMI Through function.
