%RQT6087ConnectionsDigital Optical and Coaxial Cable Connections Optical Cable Input/Output TerminalsConnect a receiver or amplifier with digital audio capability viathe optical Input/Output cables. A single cable transmits stereosignals (L/R channels) as digital data.If analog audio connections are also being made, try using thedigital connectors on the receiver/amplifier that are labeled thesame way as the analog terminals.Make sure the optical cable (not supplied) can be connected tothe amplifier, etc. before purchasing it.Do not bend the optical cable at a sharp angle.The filament in the cable shines red when activated. This beamsends the digital signal. It is not harmful to the eyes, but pleasekeep the protective cap on the terminal when not in use. NotesConnect an external digital recording device to the digital out-put terminal on an amplifier or receiver, and then connect theamplifier or receiver to this unit.The sound from an external device cannot be digitally outputfrom this unit. To listen to the sound from the external device,connect an amplifier or receiver to the LINE OUT (PLAY) ter-minal on this unit.Digital ConnectionsLINEDIGITAL INCOAXIALOPTICALDIGITAL OUTREC IN( )PLAY OUT( )COAXIALOPTICALOptical digital cable (not supplied)Receiver or amplifier with digital optical terminalOptical digital cable (not supplied)To OPTICAL INPUTterminalHow to use optical terminals for connections1 Remove the protective cap.When the terminal is not going to be used, fit this protective capback in position.2 Check that the end of the optical digital cable is not dirty, and insert it securely.Coaxial Cable TerminalsCoaxial Input/Output terminals are provided on this unit forenhanced connectivity.
