About Home-Theater Control Systems

This summary outlines the control methods available using the

TV’s remote control. You may wish to use one or

more of these methods for your home theater.

Case 1: The source device you want to control is connected directly to the TV

If the source device has CEC capability:

•

a. Check the device’s owner’s guide and enable the device’s CEC functionality

before connecting to the TV’s HDMI input. Wait for the TV to recognize the
device and switch to it.

b. Experiment with the TV’s remote control (slide switch set to

TV) to deter-

mine which device functions it can operate. See “NetCommand for HDMI
Devices” on page 28.

If the TV is a 736 or 835 series model (any connection type):

•

Set up NetCommand IR control of the source device’s keys as desired. See “IR
Emitter Placement,” page 52, and “Initial NetCommand Setup for Most Devices,”
page 53.

Any Connec-

tion Type

For any TV model (any connection type):

•

Program the remote control to operate the source device. To control the device,
set the slide switch to the correct position for the device type. See Appendix C,
“Programming the Remote Control.”

Case 2: The source device you want to control is con-
nected to an A/V receiver connected to the TV

If the A/V receiver has CEC capability:

•

a. Check the A/V receiver’s owner’s guide and enable the A/V receiver’s CEC

functionality before connecting to the TV’s HDMI input. Wait for the TV to
recognize the device and switch to it.

b. Try using the TV’s remote control to operate volume and mute functions.

See “NetCommand for HDMI Devices” on page 28.

c. If the connected source device has CEC capability:

i) Enable the device’s CEC functionality before connecting to the A/V

receiver’s HDMI input. Wait for the TV to recognize the device and switch
to it.

ii) Test using the TV’s remote control to determine which device functions it

can operate.

Note: If the source device is connected to the A/V receiver by another con-
nection type (e.g., component video, S-video), see the alternative control
methods below.

Setup Procedure

Connect your devices to the TV, making note

of which TV input is used for each device. See
chapter 3, “TV Connections.” The TV and the
devices can be either on or off when connecting.

First select a
device type.

Next perform
IR “learning” (if
available).

Sample Auto Input Sensing screen

Power on the TV if not already on. When the TV

detects a connection, the

Auto Input Sensing screen

opens.

• Most Device Types: Specify the device type.

a. In the

Auto Input Sensing screen, press

to move through the device list to select the
device type connected to the input. The device
type you select here will appear as an icon in the
Input Selection menu.

736 and 835 Series Models: To perform
NetCommand “learning” after selecting the
device type, highlight the Learn icon and press
ENTER. See chapter “Initial NetCommand Setup
for Most Devices,” page 53.

•

A/V Receiver: The TV can detect audio connections
on the

DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT jack and the right

(red) analog

AVR AUDIO OUTPUT jack.

736 and 835 Series Models: To perform NetCom-
mand “learning” now, highlight the Learn icon in
the

Auto Output Sensing screen and press ENTER.

See “Setting Up NetCommand Control of an A/V
Receiver,” page 57.

•

HDMI Devices Compatible with the TV’s
NetCommand for HDMI Feature (all models):
Compatible HDMI devices with CEC enabled are
often recognized automatically by the TV. After con-
necting the device, you may briefly see the standard
Auto Input Sensing screen shown above before
the TV recognizes the device type. The TV’s remote
control may operate some device functions without
further setup. To add control over more functions:

All Models:

Program the TV’s remote

control to operate the device.

Setting Up TV Inputs, continued

36 and 835 Series Models: Perform

NetCommand IR “learning” to add functions.

Press

EXIT to close the Auto Input Sensing screen. The

TV will then display the

Auto Input Sensing screen for

the next connection it finds.

More About Auto Input Sensing

• Choose a different name for each input.
• Antenna inputs (

ANT 1/ANT 2) are never detected,

although you can turn off unused antenna inputs in the
Inputs > Name menu.

• You can change the device type at a later time using the

Inputs > Name menu (page 47). Any “learned” NetCom-
mand IR codes will be erased, however.

Changing Devices on an HDMI Input:

Disconnect the HDMI device.

Turn off the HDMI input in the

Inputs > Name menu.

Connect the new device and the

Auto Input

Sensing screen will display. If you want the device
under NetCommand IR control, perform NetCom-
mand “learning” for the new device.

Note for Analog A/V Receivers
When you disconnect an analog A/V receiver, be
sure to manually change the Speakers setting to
TV

to hear sound from the TV speakers.

Controlling A/V Receiver Sound Volume

Although the TV detects when you connect an A/V receiver,
you must use one of the methods below to control sound
volume from the A/V receiver.

With a Standard TV Setup (all models)
•

Recommended Method: Program the TV’s remote
control for your A/V receiver and enable the Audio Lock
feature. See Appendix C, page 65.

• Program the TV’s remote control for your A/V receiver

and set the TV remote’s slide switch to the

AUDIO posi-

tion to control A/V receiver volume. Set the switch back
to the

TV position to control the TV.

• Use the remote control that came with the A/V receiver.

With an HDMI CEC-enabled A/V Receiver (all models)
The TV’s remote control may control some or all functions
of the A/V receiver without further setup. Connect the A/V
receiver to the TV with an HDMI cable and test the TV’s
remote control with the slide switch in the

TV position.

With NetCommand Control of an A/V Receiver (736 and
835 series models)
• Set up NetCommand control of the A/V receiver’s volume

functions in the

Inputs > AVR menu. The TV’s remote

will then automatically control A/V receiver volume. See
page 57.

• Use any of the methods described for the standard

TV setup.
