SOUNDBAR AUDIO/VIDEO CONNECTIONS
HDMI ARC TV Out:
If your TV has an HDMI input, use an HDMI
cable (not supplied) to connect it to the soundbar’s HDMI ARC TV
Out connection. The soundbar will pass video from source devices
connected to its HDMI Input connectors, along with its own on-screen
display information, to the TV. If your TV is equipped with the HDMI
Audio Return Channel (ARC) Function, you can feed its sound to the
soundbar via the HDMI ARC TV Out connection, and it will not require
additional audio connections to the soundbar. The ARC signal is active
when the HDMI TV source is selected.
NOTE: The soundbar’s on-screen information display (OSD) only
appears through the HDMI ARC TV Out connector. If you want to
see the soundbar’s OSD you need to connect its HDMI ARC TV Out
connector to your TV even if you are not connecting any HDMI video
source devices to the soundbar’s HDMI In 1/2/3 connectors (below).
See
On-Screen Information Display,
on page 6, for more information.

HDMI In 1/2/3:
If any of your source devices have HDMI connectors,
connect them to the soundbar’s HDMI In 1/2/3 connectors for the best
possible video and audio performance quality. Since the HDMI cable
carries both digital video and digital audio signals, you do not have to
make any additional audio connections for source devices you connect
via HDMI connectors.
Aux In and Optical In connections:
If your TV and source devices
do not have HDMI connections, you can use the supplied audio cable
and optical cable to connect your TV and one source device to the
soundbar’s Aux In and Optical In connectors, respectively.
