Definition

HDMI stands for High Definition Multimedia Interface. Via this transmission route, digital images and audio signals can be transmitted.
the device HDMARC (ARC-Audio Return Channel) means that the cable is provided with an ARC channel. Via this channel, audio signals are transmitted in both direc tions.

The following modern devices are usually provided with an ARC output: television sets, games consoles or digital receivers. In the following, the connection to a television set is described.

Via the ARC channel of the HDMI cable, digital audio signals can be transmitted from the source device (e.g. television set) to the soundbase.

The audio transmission via the HDMI (ARC) socket 10 can only work if all components are ARC-enabled. If the transmission is unsuccessful, you must take one or possibly several of the following items into account:

• The old HDMI cable must be replaced with a new ARC-enabled cable.
• Not every HDMI socket on the television set needs to support ARC. In this case, the HDMI cable on the television set must be connected to another ARC-enabled HDMI socket. Usually, the respective HDMI sockets are labelled with ARC. If not, refer to the user instructions of your television set.

• For several television sets, the digital audio output must be activated. Select the audio output PCM 2.0 (PCM stereo).

• Connect the socket HDMI (ARC) 10 by means of an ARC-enabled HDMI cable to an HDMI ARC socket of your television set.

• Switch on the soundbase with the POWER 29 button.
• By pressing the HDMI (ARC) 17 button, select the HDMI input.
• Switch on the television set. When the connection is established for the first time, it may take several seconds until sound is output from the soundbase.
