• CoreStation Compact
ARC (Audio Return Channel)
In case of a HDMI connection, this
channel provides a return channel for
audio data from the TV set (for TV sets
that support this function). This makes
it possible for audio to be transmitted
from the TV set to the CoreStation
Compact without the need for anoth-
er cable when a TV signal is being
received.
With many TV sets, the internal speak-
ers are switched off as soon as the
CoreStation Compact plays back the TV
audio.
With some TV sets, you have to activate
these function separately in the menu
– please refer to the user manual for
your TV set.
With many TV sets, the ARC function is
only supported by one HDMI connec-
tion. In most cases, it is labelled with
“ARC”.
If your TV set does not support the func-
tion ARC via CEC, please observe the
notes regarding ARC in the chapter TV
set without ARC“ on page 18.
CEC (Consumer Electronics
Control)
This function makes it possible to
control devices via the HDMI connec-
tion. The CoreStation Compact together
with the TV set is switched on and to
standby with this function. With many
TV sets, you can also adjust the volume
of the CoreStation Compact with the
remote control of your TV set.
