Connecting using HDMI

If you have an HDMI or DVI (with HDCP) equipped component
(Blu-ray Disc player, etc.), you can connect it to this receiver
using a commercially available HDMI cable.
• The following connection/setting is required to listen to
the sound of the TV over this receiver.
If the TV does not support the HDMI Audio Return
-
Channel function, connect the receiver and TV with
audio cables (as shown).
- If the TV supports the HDMI Audio Return Channel
function, the sound of the TV is input to the receiver via
the HDMI terminal, so there is no need to connect an
audio cable. In this case, set ARC at HDMI Setup to ON
(see The HDMI Setup menu on page 35).
Please refer to the TV's operation manual for directions
-
on connections and setup for the TV.
Important
• If the receiver is connected to a TV using an HDMI cable,
the on-screen display (OSD) will not be displayed. Be sure
to use a standard RCA analog video cable to connect. In
this case, switch the TV input to analog to see the OSD
screen (for setup, etc.) on the TV.
• When the ARC function is ON and the receiver is
connected to a compatible TV with an HDMI cable, and
you switch the input of the TV to composite, the input of
the receiver may automatically switch to TV. If this
happens, switch the receiver's input back to the original
input, or turn OFF the ARC function (see The HDMI Setup
menu on page 35).
Note
• In order to listen to the audio from the TV that is connected
to this receiver using an analog audio cables, set-up for
analog audio input is required (see The Input Assign menu
on page 34).
