Connecting
your
TV
to
the
system
The instructions
below
show
basic connections
to
the media center and
TV.
This simple set
of
connections will allow you
to
use your system quickly. Later
in
this guide you will find other
options
for connecting additional
components
to
your
system.
Making
the
audio
connection
Using
the
supplied stereo audio cable,
connect
the left
(L)
and right
(R)
audio outputs on the
rear panel
of
your TV
to
the Audio
IN
TV
Land
R on
the
media center rear panel (Figure 12).
• If
the
TV has both fixed
(FIX)
and variable
(VAR)
outputs, use the ones for fixed output. If
the
setup
menu for
your
TV allows, select Fixed
in
that menu.
• If you have a digital
TV,
you may connect a digital audio cable as well. This may either be a
single coaxial cable with RCA connectors on each end,
or
an optical cable, which has a
unique snap fit
connector
on each end.
)
Note:
It is important to provide the analog connection along with the digital,
to
prevent a loss
of
sound caused
by
any
temporary degradation
of
the digital signal.
)
Note:
On
the
TV,
be sure
to
notice which Video IN
jack
is used.
In
the example below, the
media center Video
OUT
is connected
to
the VIDEO 1 input
on
the
TV.
In
this case, use your
TV remote control
to
select VIDEO 1
to
view DVDs
and
see LIFESTYLE? system menus.
