Follow these steps to connect your PureLink CSC200 adapter:

5.1 Connection Method 1: External Signal Source to CSC200

This method is ideal for home theater applications where you want to connect a source device (like a PS5 or Xbox) directly to the CSC200 to ensure the highest quality audio (e.g., Dolby Atmos) is sent to your eARC soundbar, while video is passed to your existing 4K TV.

1. Connect your source device (e.g., PS5, Xbox, PC, Apple TV, Fire Stick) to the HDMI-IN port of the CSC200 using a high-quality HDMI 2.1 cable.
2. Připojte TV (HDMI eARC) port of the CSC200 to an available HDMI input on your television or display using a high-quality HDMI 2.1 cable.
3. Připojte Soundbar (eARC) port of the CSC200 to the eARC input on your soundbar or AV receiver using a high-quality HDMI 2.1 cable.
4. Připojte 5V napájecí adaptér k DC 5V port on the CSC200 and plug it into a power outlet. Alternatively, use a USB-A to Micro-USB cable (not included) to power the CSC200 from a USB port on your TV.
5. Power on all connected devices (source, TV, soundbar/receiver).

5.2 Connection Method 2: External Signal Source to Display, then to CSC200

This method is suitable when your display has multiple HDMI inputs and you prefer to manage sources through your TV, or if your TV has built-in apps you wish to use for audio output.

1. Connect your source device (e.g., PS5, Xbox, PC, Apple TV, Fire Stick) to an available HDMI input on your television or display.
2. Připojte TV (HDMI eARC) port of the CSC200 to the eARC/ARC HDMI input on your television.
3. Připojte Soundbar (eARC) port of the CSC200 to the eARC input on your soundbar or AV receiver using a high-quality HDMI 2.1 cable.
4. Připojte 5V napájecí adaptér k DC 5V port on the CSC200 and plug it into a power outlet. Alternatively, use a USB-A to Micro-USB cable (not included) to power the CSC200 from a USB port on your TV.
5. Zapněte všechna připojená zařízení.

2. Připojte Soundbar (eARC) port of the CSC200 to the eARC input on your soundbar or AV receiver using a high-quality HDMI 2.1 cable.
3. Připojte 5V napájecí adaptér k DC 5V port on the CSC200 and plug it into a power outlet. Alternatively, use a USB-A to Micro-USB cable (not included) to power the CSC200 from a USB port on your TV.
4. Power on your TV and soundbar/receiver.
