Connecting a Digital Audio System with ARC/eARC

If you would like to use the ARC(Audio Return Channel)/eARC(enhanced Audio Return Channel) feature to send sound from the TV by a HDMI cable to a digital sound system, you can connect it to the HDMI (ARC/eARC) port of your TV.

By using this feature, you can also control the sound system with your TV remote instead of using the remotes for each device.

After the connection:

  1. Power on the sound system.
  2. Press button on your remote control to select Settings > Display and sound > Audio Output > Audio Output > ARC/eARC
Note:
  • Audio receiver must support ARC/eARC function.
  • If the device has an Input Selector feature, then make sure to change it to TV.
  • When this port is used for ARC function, it can be used as signal input when a DVD is connected to an amplifier and the amplifier is connected to the TV at the same time. Some amplifiers may not support series connection.
  • 5.1 CH (channel) audio is available when the TV is connected to an external device that supports 5.1 channel surround sound. You can press button on your remote control to select Settings > Display and sound > Audio Output > Digital Audio Output to choose Dolby Audio - Dolby Digital Plus to receive the 5.1 channel audio.
