Without makes and models of the TV and HTS we can't give you an exact answer.
If both the TV and HTS have HDMI-ARC then you need to connect the HDMI out of the HTS to the HDMI-ARC input on the TV. Check the TV manual on how to set up ARC.
If the TV has a coax digital or analog audio/headphone out then you can use an active converter to provide an optical audio signal for the HTS. Check the TV manual on how to set up the digital audio output.
If the TV has an analog audio or headphone jack and the HTS has an aux input then you can connect them with the correct cable.
