Connecting to audio equipment with ARC function

If connecting audio equipment with ARC function to HDMI1 (ARC) using the included ARC-supported HDMI cable, the audio

equipment outputs the monitor’s sound.
• The sound via HDMI1 (ARC) is not adjustable by the OSD menu.
• When the ARC function is activated, the monitor’s internal speaker or the external speakers connected to the monitor are

muted.

HDMI-CEC (Consumer Electronics Control)

HDMI-CEC provides compatible media players, connected via HDMI, the ability to communicate and allow limited control

between the device and the monitor. For example, turning on a Blu-ray player can immediately switch input to the Blu-ray player

without using the remote control. Not all devices are fully compatible, and, in some cases, the media device manufacturer may

only provide compatibility with its own monitors or TVs. See

“HDMI-CEC Command” on page 31

.

When supported, the monitor’s remote control can be used to control the HDMI media device.
NOTEN:

The instructions in this section guide you through configuring [CEC] in the monitor’s OSD menu. These settings can

also be configured using the monitor’s web controls.
