Before making a connection, ensure that all electrical devices are powered off as severe damage to equipment and/or your ears could result. Alpha VS21
has three optional inputs: Analogue (Auxiliary), Coaxial (Digital), Optical (Digital). For a simple single-wire setup, connect a single wire to any of these
inputs and connect all further devices directly to the TV.
To achieve the best possible sound reproduction, we recommend connecting individual sources such as a satellite receiver, Blu-ray or DVD player directly
to the Alpha VS21.
The following options are possible based on the type of source connections used:
1)
Analogue Input
(Auxiliary)
For connecting sources such as a portable media player or gaming console.
If your TV only has an audio output marked
AUDIO OUT
then connect it using the shielded stereo RCA cable plugged into the analogue input on
the VS21 marked
ANALOG
. Otherwise this input can be used to connect video cameras or game consoles.
2)
Coaxial Input
(Digital)
For connecting sources such as a DVD or Blu-ray Player.
To transmit the DVD sound signal connect the digital coaxial output from your Blu-ray or DVD player into the jack marked
COAXIAL
on the
VS21. To transmit the picture signal, your DVD player must also be connected to the TV.
3)
Optical Input
(Digital)
For connecting sources with optical output using an optical interconnect (Toslink).
Connect the optical interconnect from the media source output to the input marked
OPTICAL
on the VS21.
4)
SUB OUT - Low Pass Filtered Output
(Mono)
For connecting an external active subwoofer.
Subwoofer output can be activated using the supplied remote control, which will also redirect part of the low frequency content to the
subwoofer. Connect the Alpha VS21 to the low-level input of the external subwoofer using a subwoofer interconnect cable. See the
CONTROLLING
section for remote functions.
5)
Service Button
For changing the IR channel for the remote control and resetting the unit to factory default settings.
See
“How to Restore to Factory Default”
in the
CONTROLLING
section.
6)
Power Inlet
For connecting the unit to a power source.
Note:
We recommend that you deactivate the internal loudspeaker of the TV once the VS21 is connected (refer to TV manual for instructions).
