Optical Digital-Audio Output - Pace Sky plus User Manual

❖ Optical digital-audio output

Your Sky+ set top box has an optical digital-audio output that can be
connected using an optical cable (not supplied) to suitable hi-fi / audio
equipment that is capable of decoding a Dolby Digital signal.
If you are watching a programme that has a Dolby Digital soundtrack
(indicated by the letters DD in the title bar of the programme
synopsis), this connector will normally output a Dolby Surround Pro
Logic signal. Within System Setup you can configure this connector to
output a Dolby Digital signal, which can then be decoded by your hi-fi/
audio equipment.
To turn on the Dolby Digital signal:
1. Highlight Sound Settings on the System Setup screen, then press
select.
2. Highlight Optical Output and use the left or right arrow to
change the setting to Dolby D.
3. Press the down arrow to highlight Save New Settings, then press
select.
Dolby Digital audio is available only if the programme is broadcast with
a Dolby Digital soundtrack.
