ADJUSTING

THE VOLUME

AUDIO SIGNAL EMITTED BY YOUR TERMINAL

By adjusting the volume on your TV,you determine the loudness of the sound coming from your speakers. With illico, however, the VOLUME feature adjusts the power of the audio signal coming from your terminal. This signal then enters your TV or audio system at the programmed level. This is why it is important to keep the power of the audio signal coming from your illico terminal at maximum level.

PROGRAMMING YOUR REMOTE CONTROL

You must program your illico remote control to control the sound from the TV speakers rather than the power of the audio signal coming from the terminal. To do so, you first need to program your remote control to turn the TV on/off. Then, depending on the model, follow the instructions for programming the remote control to control the TV volume (reference: remote control section of this guide).

SETTING ILLICO LEVELS FOR BETTER SOUND QUALITY

There are three main settings.

To access the general settings menu, press SETTINGS twice on your illico remote control. Once in the GENERAL SETTINGS menu, follow the instructions below:

A.In the menu on the left, select AUDIO: DIGITAL OUT using the up/down arrows. Go to the right and, using the arrows again, select DOLBY DIGITAL. Press to confirm your selection.

B.In the menu on the left, select AUDIO: RANGE using the up/down arrows. Go to the right and, using the arrows again, select NARROW. Press to confirm your selection.

C.In the menu on the left, select AUDIO: VOLUME CTRL using the up/down arrows. Go to the right and, using the arrows again, select FIXED. Press to confirm your selection.

Naturally, for impeccable sound quality, your TV or home theatre speakers have to be in good condition. Also, be sure to use top-quality speaker wires. In addition, if your home theatre has an AC-3 input, we recommend you use it because illico is AC-3 enabled. If you are watching a program in this format, you will get superior quality sound, provided your equipment has been set accordingly.
