5. Einrichtungsanweisungen

Follow these steps to connect your Neoteck HDMI Audio Extractor:

1. Connect your HDMI source device (e.g., Blu-ray player, PS4, Sky HD Box) to the HDMI IN Anschluss am Extraktor über ein HDMI-Kabel.
2. Verbinden Sie HDMI-Ausgang port of the extractor to your display device (e.g., TV, monitor, projector) using another HDMI cable.
3. Connect your audio receiver, soundbar, or speakers to the extractor using either the SPDIF optical cable or Cinch L/R analog cables, depending on your audio system's input capabilities.
4. Verbinden Sie die mitgelieferten 5V USB-Stromkabel to the DC 5V input on the extractor and then to a 5V 1A USB power adapter (not included, typically a mobile phone charger) or a USB port on your source device/display. Ensure the power indicator light on the extractor illuminates.
5. Select the desired audio EDID mode (PASS, 2CH, or 5.1CH) using the switch on the extractor. Refer to Section 6 for details on each mode.
6. Schalten Sie alle angeschlossenen Geräte ein.

6. Bedienungsanleitung

The Neoteck HDMI Audio Extractor features an EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) switch to control the audio output format. Select the appropriate mode based on your audio setup:

6.1. PASS Mode

In PASS mode, the SPDIF output audio format is determined by the EDID of the connected TV or display. This means the extractor will pass through the audio format as received from the source, allowing the display to negotiate the best audio format with the source device.

Figure 2: Connection diagram for PASS mode. A Blu-ray DVD player connects to the HDMI IN. HDMI OUT connects to an HDTV. The SPDIF output connects to an amplifier. The EDID switch is set to PASS.

6.2. 2CH-Modus

When set to 2CH mode, the SPDIF output audio format will be LPCM 2CH (stereo). This mode is suitable for stereo audio systems or when your display/audio receiver only supports 2-channel audio.

Figure 3: Connection diagram for 2CH mode. A PS3 connects to the HDMI IN. HDMI OUT connects to an HDTV. The L/R RCA outputs connect to stereo speakers. The EDID switch is set to 2CH.

6.3. 5.1CH-Modus

For 5.1CH audio output via SPDIF, ensure your source audio is 5.1CH and set the extractor to 5.1CH mode. This mode is designed for surround sound systems that can decode 5.1 channel digital audio.

6.4. PS4 Audio Settings

When using with a PS4, navigate to the PS4's audio settings and ensure the audio output format is set to Lineares PCM for optimal compatibility with the extractor's 2CH mode. For 5.1CH, ensure the PS4 output is set to Bitstream (Dolby) or Bitstream (DTS) and the extractor is in 5.1CH mode.
