CONNECTING WITH HDMI ARC

What is HDMI Audio Return Channel (ARC)? 

Using HDMI (ARC), your TV can send audio to the sound bar using an HDMI cable. 

You will need to connect your sound bar to your TV’s HDMI (ARC) port using an HDMI cable that is ARC compatible.

To connect using HDMI*:

1.  Connect one end of the HDMI cable to the 

HDMI 1 (ARC) port on the back of your TV.

2.  Connect the other end to the 

HDMI OUT (ARC) port on your VIZIO sound bar.

3.  From the AUDIO menu on your TV, change the Digital Audio Setting to

 Dolby Digital or Bitstream.

4.  From the SYSTEM menu, enable CEC and ARC (SAC)

 functions.

5.  From the CEC menu, select 

Device Discovery to register the sound bar with the TV.

If you want to use the volume buttons on the TV remote control 

to control the sound bar, enable System Audio Control from the 

CEC menu.

*  

The following steps are for use with a VIZIO TV, steps may differ by TV manufacturer. See your TV’s user manual for more information.

CEC Function naming may differ by TV manufacturer. See your TV’s user manual for more information.
