Subwoofer issue on Yamaha RX-V363 amplifier

Solved/Closed

Hi all !
I don't understand much about the 5.1 world, so I'll keep it simple.
My uncle gave me the Yamaha RX-V363 amplifier; here’s the link https://www.son-video.com/[...]V/YamahaRXV363.html .
I bought the Yamaha NS-P116 compact home theater speaker kit (here’s the link https://www.son-video.com/[...]/Yamaha_NSP116.html )
I have a PS3 that I connected via HDMI to the TV.
And I plugged an optical cable into the amplifier.
I set the amplifier to Dolby Digital
The 5 speakers work, but the subwoofer is not detected (the light on the subwoofer stays red)
What should I do?
Since I'm not very knowledgeable in this area, I would ask you to explain it to me in simple terms.
Thank you in advance for your help.

Good evening! So, to get the bass on the YAMAHA RX-V363 there are a few steps to take! First, perform the auto calibration by connecting the microphone to the "Optimizer mic". At least if everything works and especially if the bass responds, it means it's properly connected!

Then (thanks bro)

Menu > Manual Setup > 1) Sound Menu > A) Speaker Set > Bass Out > SWFR or BOTH

Menu, enter > Auto Setup, down arrow; Manual Setup, enter > 1) Sound Menu, enter > A) Speaker Set, enter > Front B, down arrow until you land on Bass Out; then move the arrows left or right until you get bass; for me whether it's SWFR or BOTH it works but on FRNT it doesn't work :)

Hope this helps you ^^
