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 with 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 RCA cable
connection between the audio output jack of the TV and the
VIDEO/AUDIO IN TV/CD jack of the unit.
