SYSTEM AUDIO OUTPUT CONNECTIONS

SYSTEM AUDIO OUTPUTS

T he DPTV's System Audio

Output jacks can be used for

sound playback through an

external audio amplifier or Dolby

Pro Logic receiver.

BEGIN

1Connect the R(ight) and L(eft) SYSTEM AUDIO OUT jacks on

the DPTV to the R and L Audio

Input jacks on your amplifier or

sound system.

2Turn DPTV ON and place the external amplifier system to the AUX INPUT mode (if applicable).

Note: Dependent upon the audio

information received the DPTV

outputs a straight two channel

Left/Right stereo audio signal for

output.

STOP

SMART HELP

Note: To eliminate sound playback through the

DPTV cabinet speakers when using

an external amplifier audio connection you can either:

-Press the MUTE button on the remote to eliminate sound

through the DPTV speakers

OR

-Place the FRONT SPEAKERS switch on the rear of the DPTV to the EXT(ernal) position, which will also eliminate the use of the Front External Speaker Out connection terminals on the DPTV.

Note: Using the Front Speakers switch alone does not shut off all the DPTV speakers, when they are used as a Center Channel or Surround sound playback source. In such cases, you may also need to reset additional speaker switches on the rear of the DPTV to completely shut the sound off from the DPTV cabinet speakers. See the “Internal TV Speakers Used as Center Channel” and “Center Channel Input Switch” section on page 40 for details.

REAR OF DPTV

The System Audio Out(put) jacks send the DPTV’s current audio (ATSC, NTSC, or Monitor) to an external amplifier for output. The advantage of such an additional System Audio Out connection (as shown in this diagram) is that it could continue to route the supplied audio signals from the DPTV to an external amplifier or Pro Logic Receiver (even when the selected program source switches between a digital ATSC program, NTSC, or Monitor supplied source). In the case of digital multichannel audio the DPTV downmixes the audio output to a straight 2-channel stereo signal.

Note: For best audio reproduction and playback of Dolby Digital surround sound through a Pro Logic Receiver (when using the System Audio Out jacks):

place the REAR SPEAKER DELAY control (located in the DPTV’s ATSC Speakers Menu) to the maximum “15 feet or more” setting

place the Center Channel Delay control (located in the DPTV’s ATSC Speakers Menu) to the “Back 2 feet” position
