1. How the signal emitted by your terminal works
When you adjust the volume on your TV, you determine the loudness of the sound coming from your speakers. With your terminal, however, the VOLUME feature adjusts the power of the audio signal coming from your terminal. The signal then enters your TV, sound system or stereo at the programmed level. This is why it is vital to keep the power of the audio signal coming from your terminal at maximum level.
We advise you to program your terminal remote control to your television in order to control the sound from the TV speakers rather than the loudness of the audio signal coming from the terminal.
To find out more, see the “Adjusting the Sound” section in your terminal user guide or see how to program your remote.
2. Programming your remote
For the best viewing experience possible, we advise you to program your terminal remote to your television. To find out more, see the "Remote controls" section in your terminal user guide.
3. Setting the terminal for better sound quality
• There are three main settings.
• To access the general settings menu, press SETTINGS twice on your terminal remote.
Once you’re in the GENERAL SETTINGS menu, follow the instructions below:
A. In the menu on the left, select AUDIO: DIGITAL using the up/down arrows. Go to the right and, with the arrows once again, select:
• DOLBY DIGITAL if you’re using a digital audio output.
• HDMI if you’re using an audio outlet via your HDMI cable.
• OTHER if you’re using an analog audio output.
Press A to confirm your selection.
B. In the menu on the left, select AUDIO: RANGE using the up/down arrows. The AUDIO: RANGE section controls volume sensitivity and only concerns analog audio outputs.
Go to the right and, with the arrows once again, select:
• NORMAL if the volume level is suitable.
• WEAK if you wish to increase the volume slightly.
• LARGE if you wish to decrease the volume slightly.
Press A to configure 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 A to confirm your selection.
Naturally, for impeccable sound quality, your TV or home-theatre speakers must be in good condition. Also, be sure to use top-quality speaker wire. In addition, if your home theatre has a coaxial digital audio input (digital audio out), we recommend you use it because the terminal is digital input enabled. If you are watching a program in Dolby Digital format, you will get superior quality sound, provided your equipment has been set up accordingly.
