addition to the stereo 3.5 mm out connector, the display provides a Sony/Philips Digital Interface (S/PDIF)
out connector (pictured). S/PDIF is a digital audio transmission medium. You need an audio system that has
an S/PDIF input to decode this connection to analog. Most external sound bars include a S/PDIF connector.

NOTES
l
If you connect an external speaker system to the display using the Sony/Philips Digital Interface
(S/PDIF) out connector and the audio source device is connected to the display using an HDMI 2.0
connection, the external speaker system must support HDCP 2.2. For more information, see
Board interactive flat panels and High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection (HDCP)
.
l
The S/PDIF audio is a fixed-volume output. Adjusting the display’s volume for its internal speakers
does not affect the volume output of the S/PDIF port.
Connecting room control systems
A room control system enables users to control a room’s lighting, audio system and, possibly, the display.
Some installations may require you to integrate the display with a room control system.
