Fi70: Why do I have no sound on the optical connection?
If you've connected your Fi70 to an optical input such as the one on the back of a TV and have no sound, you may need to update some settings and check your connections. The steps below should resolve this.
- Confirm the speaker is on the correct source via LED Colour – White.Test the speakers for functionality by using another audio input or source
- Inspect the ends of the optical cable to ensure there are no caps or covers on the connect
- Check the TV or Source Device audio settings. The output should be set to Stereo or PCM. Our speakers do not support Dolby or other Surround Sound codecs.
- If the audio input is set to auto-detect, change it manually to Stereo or PCM
- Try another Optical Cable.
- Try another source device – eg if they have it connected to the TV, connect it to one of the sources like a game console or cable box.
- Confirm if your TV audio is set to External Speakers.
