The TC417 supports Digital Optical, Auxiliary (3.5mm,) and RCA (RED/WHITE.) Please check and see which one your TV supports; any ONE of the three will work.

- Plug the other end of the cable into the Optical Port labeled "SPDIF IN" on the back of your TC417 transmitter.
- Make sure that the SPDIF/AUX Switch on the side has been set to "SPDIF" position.
- Go to your TV's SOUND settings, make sure that the AUDIO OUTPUT has been set to "EXTERNAL SPEAKER." Some TVs automatically complete this step for you, some don't.
