Connecting a satellite/cable receiver or other set-top box

Satellite and cable receivers, and terrestrial digital TV
tuners are all examples of so-called 'set-top boxes'.
1 Use a SCART cable to connect the STB IN AV
connector to an AV connector on the set-top box
component.
This carries video and analog stereo audio signals from
the set-top box component to this receiver.
2 Use an optical digital audio cable to connect the
STB(DVD) OPT1 jack to an optical digital audio
output on the set-top box component.
This connection carries stereo and multichannel digital
audio.

If your set-top box component doesn't have an optical
digital audio out jack, it is possible to use a coaxial
connection to the DVD(STB) COAX jack. However, since
by default this input is assigned to the DVD input, you will
need to reassign it to the STB input before you can use it.
After connecting up everything else see Coaxial input
setting on page 38 for how to do this.
Note
• If your satellite/cable receiver doesn't have a digital
audio output, omit step 2 above.
