CONNECTINg THE SPEAKErS

This section involves various methods of connecting the Digital Home Theater to other external components. Before moving or installing the product, be sure to turn off the power and disconnect the power cord.

connections

Position of Digital Home Theater Place it on a stand or cabinet shelf, or under the TV stand.

Selecting the listening Position The listening position should be located about 2.5 to 3 times the distance of the TV's screen size away from the TV. Example : For 32" TVs 2~2.4m (6~8feet)

For 55" TVs 3.5~4m (11~13feet)

Front Speakers ei Place these speakers in front of your listening position, facing inwards (about 45) toward you. Place the speakers so that their tweeters will be at the same height as your ear. Align the front face of the front speakers with the front face of the center speaker or place them slightly in front of the center speakers.

Subwoofer g The position of the subwoofer is not so critical. Place it anywhere you like.

If you place a speaker near your TV set, screen color may be distorted because of the magnetic fi eld generated by the speaker. If this occurs, place the speaker away from your TV set.

M `

Do not let children play with or near the speakers. They could get hurt if a speaker falls.

When connecting the speaker wires to the speakers, make sure that the polarity (+/ ) is correct.

Keep the subwoofer speaker out of reach of children so as to prevent children from inserting their hands or other objects into the duct (hole) of the subwoofer speaker.

Do not hang the subwoofer on the wall through the duct (hole).

CONNECTINg THE VIDEO OUT TO YOUr TV Choose one of the three methods for connecting to a TV.

METHOD3 (supplied)

METHOD2 METHOD1

METHOD 1 : HDMI (BEST QUALITY)

Connect the HDMI cable from the HDMI OUT jack on the back of the DVD Player to the HDMI IN jack on your TV.

METHOD 2 : Component Video (BETTER QUALITY)

If your television has Component Video inputs, connect a Component video cable(not supplied) from the Component Video Output (PR, PB and Y) jacks on the back of the DVD Player to the Component Video Input jacks on your TV.

METHOD 3 : Composite Video (GOOD QUALITY)

Connect the supplied Video cable from the VIDEO OUT jack on the back of the DVD Player to the VIDEO IN jack on your TV.

The resolution from the Component Output is 480i.

If you use an HDMI cable to connect a Samsung TV to the DVD Player, you can operate the Home Theater using the TV's remote control. This is only available with SAMSUNG TVs that support Anynet+(HDMI-CEC).

Please check the logo (If your TV has an logo, then it supports the Anynet+ function.)

connections HDMI Auto Detection Function

The player's video output will automatically change to HDMI mode when connecting an HDMI cable while power is on.

HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) HDMI is an interface that enables the digital transmission of video and audio data with just a single connector. Using HDMI, the DVD Home Theater transmits a digital video and audio signals and displays a vivid picture. HDMI connection description HDMI connector - Supports video and digital audio data. - HDMI outputs only a pure digital signal to the TV. - If your TV does not support HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection), random noise

appears on the screen. Why does Samsung use HDMI? Analog TVs require an analog video/audio signal. However, when playing a DVD, the data transmitted to a TV is digital. Therefore either a digital-to-analog converter (in the DVD Home Theater) or an analog-to-digital converter (in the TV) is required. During this conversion, the picture quality is degraded due to noise and signal loss. HDMI technology is superior because it requires no D/A conversion and is a pure digital signal from the player to your TV. What is the HDCP? HDCP (High-band width Digital Content Protection) is a system for protecting DVD content outputted via HDMI from being copied. It provides a secure digital link between a video source (PC, DVD. etc) and a display device (TV, projector. etc). Content is encrypted at the source device to prevent unauthorized copies from being made. What is Anynet+? Anynet+ is a convenient function that offers linked operation of this unit through Samsung TVs with the Anynet+ feature. - If your Samsung TV has an logo, then it supports the Anynet+ function. - If you turn on the player and insert a disc, the player will start playing the disc, and the TV will turn on

automatically and switch to HDMI mode. - If you turn on the player and press the Play button with a disc already inserted, the TV will

immediately turn on and switch to HDMI mode.

USINg BlUETOOTH You can use a Bluetooth device to enjoy music with high quality stereo sound, all without wires!

What is Bluetooth? Bluetooth is an new technology that enables Bluetooth-compliant devices to easily interconnect with each other using a short wireless connection.

A Bluetooth device may cause a noise or malfunction, depending on usage. When a part of the body is in contact with the receiving/transmitting system of the Bluetooth device or the Home Theater System. Electrical variation from obstructions caused by a wall, corner or office partitioning. Electrical interference from same frequency-band devices including medical equipment, microwave oven and wireless LAN.

Pair the Home Cinema System with the Bluetooth device while maintaining a close distance. The further the distance is between Home Theater System and Bluetooth device, the worse the quality. If the distance exceeds the Bluetooth operational range, the connection is lost. The Home Theater System only supports Middle Quality SBC data(up to 237kbps@48kHz), and does not support High Quality SBC data(328kbps@44.1kHz). In poor reception-sensitivity areas, the Bluetooth connection may not work properly. The Home Theater System has an effective reception range of up to 33 feet in all directions if there are no obstacles. The connection will be automatically cut off if the distance is out of this range. Even within this range, the sound quality may be deteriorated by obstacles such as walls or doors.

To connect the Home Theater System to a Bluetooth device Check if the Bluetooth device supports the Bluetooth-compliant stereo headset function.

Press the FUNCTION button on the front panel of the home theater system repeatedly until the "BT AUDIO" appears.

The mode switches as follows : DVD/CD DIgITAl IN AUX 1 AUX 2 USB BT AUDIO TUNEr You will see WAIT for 2 seconds and then rEADY on the front display of the Home Theater System.

Select the Bluetooth menu on the Bluetooth device you want to connect. (refer to Bluetooth device's user manual)

Select a Stereo headset menu on the Bluetooth device. You will see a list of scanned devices.

Select "Samsung Home Theater" from the searched list. When the Home Theater System is connected to the Bluetooth device, the Home Theater System will display "Connect" on the front display, followed by the name of the connected Bluetooth device. The Home Theater System connection is complete.

Play music on the connected device. You can listen to the music playing on the connected Bluetooth device over the home theater system.

You may be required to enter a PIN code(password) when connecting the Bluetooth device to the home theater system. If the PIN code input window appears, enter <0000>.

In Bluetooth connection mode, the Bluetooth connection will be lost if the distance between the Home Theater System and the Bluetooth device exceeds 33 feet. If the distance is returned to the effective range or you restart the Bluetooth device, the Bluetooth connection can be restored. With some Bluetooth devices, some functions may not work properly.

Adjusting the TV Aspect ratio (Screen Size)

The horizontal to vertical screen size ratio of conventional TVs is 4:3, while that of widescreen and high definition TVs is 16:9. This ratio is called the aspect ratio. When playing DVDs recorded in different screen sizes, you should adjust the aspect ratio to fit your TV or monitor. For a standard TV, select either 4:3PS or 4:3lB option according to personal preference. Select WIDE/HDTV if you have a widescreen TV.

Black bars will appear at the top and bottom of the screen.

WIDE/HDTV Select this to view a 16:9 picture in the full-screen mode on your widescreen TV.

You can enjoy the widescreen aspect.

If a DVD is in the 4:3 ratio, you cannot view it in widescreen. Since DVD discs are recorded in various image formats, they will look different depending on the software, the type of TV, and the TV aspect ratio setting. When using HDMI, the screen is automatically converted to Wide mode.
