In addition to the stereo 3.5 mm out connector, the display provides a Sony/Philips Digital Interface
(S/PDIF) out connector (pictured). S/PDIF is a digital audio transmission medium. You need an audio
system that has an S/PDIF input to decode this connection to analog. Most external sound bars include a
S/PDIF connector.

Note
The S/PDIF audio is a fixed-volume output. Adjusting the display’s volume for its internal speakers
does not affect the volume output of the S/PDIF port.
Connecting room control systems
A room control system enables users to control a room’s lighting, audio system and, possibly, the display.
Some installations may require you to integrate the display with a room control system.
