Audio connection in HDMI/DVI devices
External devices with DVI connection
If an external device with DVI interface is connected via a HDMI/DVI 
adapter to one of the HDMI sockets of the TV set, you can connect the 
digital sound of the external device to the digital audio input socket 
AUDIO DIGITAL IN. 
The assignment of the digital audio input to the corresponding HDMI 
socket of the TV set takes place as described in the column on the left.
If you want to use the analogue sound of the external device, connect 
it to the AUDIO IN socket.
External devices with HDMI connection
If external devices with an HDMI interface are connected to one of the 
HDMI sockets of the TV set, no assignment of the audio input is necessary 
because the digital transmission of picture and sound takes place via a 
single connection in HDMI.
  Serial interface  RS-232C (RJ12)
You can connect either the Loewe Individual Sound Projector SL or a home 
network system of different manufacturers (e.g. AMX, Crestron) to your 
TV set via the RS-232C (RJ12) interface.
Please consult your dealer for configuration of the RS-232C (RJ12) interface 
and further information about the different home networking systems.
  Assignment of the  digital audio input
In order to be able to hear the digital sound of an external device con-
nected to an AV input, an AV input can be assigned to the digital audio 
input socket AUDIO DIGITAL IN. By switching to this AV input, the digital 
audio signal at the AUDIO DIGITAL IN input is communicated to the integral 
digital multi-channel audio decoder and the digital audio output socket 
AUDIO DIGITAL OUT. You will then hear the digital sound of the assigned 
AV input instead of the analogue sound if available.
Connecting devices to the digital audio input
For the digital audio playback from an external device, e.g. the DVD player, 
you have to feed the digital audio signal to the TV set.
The external digital audio signal can be reproduced via the digital multi-
channel audio decoder integrated in the TV set, via an externally connected 
digital audio amplifier or via a Loewe Individual Sound Projector SL. 
➠  If an external audio amplifier or Loewe Individual Sound 
Projector is used, this must be registered in the sound 
components wizard (see page 122).
MENU: Call TV menu.
 Select Connections,
   go to the menu line below.
 Select Miscellaneous,

To connect a DVD player to the digital audio input of the 
TV set for example, connect the digital output socket of 
the DVD player

AUDIO DIGITAL IN socket on the TV set.

  Timer recording with external devices
➠  The recording of HDTV stations with external devices is only possible 
to a limited degree. The HD transmission is scaled down to SD quality 
and output at the AV output for the recording.
Recorder with  Digital Link Plus
If you use an externally connected recorder with Digital Link Plus or a 
similar system, the TV set and connected recorder exchange data (e.g. 
compare station lists TV set/recorder or timer data of analogue stations). 
Please consult the operating manual of your recorder to find out of your 
recorder is Digital Link Plus compatible. In addition use only Euro-AV 
cables for the connection between TV set and recorder.
Analogue stations
The timer data are transmitted automatically from the TV set to 
the recorder after programming is complete. (For DVD recorders 
in addition the recording quality SQ or EQ is also transmitted.)
The recording is then controlled by the recorder and the recorder 
tuner is used for reception of the programme.
The recording data are not saved in the timer overview of the TV 
set. Consequently if you want to change or delete the timer data 
then you must do so on the recorder.
Digital stations
If you want to record digital stations with an externally connected 
recorder, then the DVB tuner is used and the TV device takes over 
control of the recorder. Then the station on the TV set is locked 
during the timer recording. 
It is not possible to switch over to another DVB station.
If using devices with DVB-T/C Twin-Tuner (Equipment variants see 
page 142), analogue stations can be viewed on the TV set paral-
lel to the recording with the external device.
 Copy  protection
Copy-protected programmes will not be output on the EURO AV sockets 
for legal reasons.
