Automatic Audio or Audio/Video Switching
The following setups enable the A/V receiver to switch
automatically to the correct input when you select a
device in the TV's Activity menu.
Three different connection arrangements are described
here. Review the descriptions to find the setup needed
for your equipment.
To hear digital surround sound from a source device
you must use the setup described for Case 2.
To set up control of an A/V receiver you need:
• The remote controls for the TV and A/V receiver.
An IR emitter cable available from Mitsubishi.
Connecting cables
Analog Stereo Audio. Audio from sources with only
analog stereo output (such as a VCR) can be sent either
directly to the A/V receiver or through the TV first.
Mitsubishi recommends you send audio through the
TV as shown in the example. The TV converts analog
audio to digital format to send to a digital A/V receiver.
• HDMI Digital Stereo Audio. Digital stereo audio
from an HDMI connection is available both in digital
and analog format from the TV's analog and digital
audio output jacks.
