Connecting E × temai Devices and NetCommand ® Setup NetCommand is able to control many current audio and video devices by sending remote control signals from the TV to each device through IR emitters . Additionally , it is also able to barn the remote control signals used by most audio video devices not already in the TV's memory . NetCommand can automatically switch the TV and compatible or learned Audio / ' Video ( A / V ) Receivers to the correct input used with each device . It is important that the inputs on the TV and AiV receiver back panels match the NetCommand setup that is displayed on screen . To simplify the installation of NetCommand , there is a step - by - step on - screen NetCommand Setup procedure in this chapter , which details the type and brands of devices you are connecting to the TV . The NetCommand Setup also assigns preset TV and AiV receiver inputs for each device . You should connect each device to the TV input ( both audio and video ) and to the AiV receiver ( audio ) as shown in the figure below . If you connect devices to inputs other than the ones shown as presets , you must change the NetCommand setup accordingly . See the Edit NetCommand information starting on page 47 . I I I The following charts show which preset inputs you should use on the TV and AiV receiver . Chart 1 shows the default TV inputs existing in NetCommand .

Helpful Hints Q . lViyVCR tor other device } does not have two sets of stereo audio outputs . How can I connect this device's audio to both the TV and the A / V Receiver ? A , Connect the single set of stereo audio outputs to the TV only . Use Edit NetCommand @ to change the setup of this device . In the Connection screen of " Change " make sure both audio and video for the TV input are check marked and neither the audio or the video for the AVR input are check marked . This wiii allow the NetCommand system to use the TV outputs to transfer the device's audio to the AiV Receiver . See Edit NetCommand in the next chapter for details . Q = I have both the TV stereo audio output and TV digital audio output connected to the same input designations on my A / V Receiver . How do I switch between analog audio and digital audio ? A , In most setups , analog audio is also output as digital audio , so no switching is required , and there is no need to connect the analog output . In some circumstances , however , you may also need analog audio from the TV . For example , MP3 audio is only output in analog format , so you must connect the TV's analog AUDIO OUTPUT to the AiV Receiver if you want to hear MP3 audio through the AiV receiver . Refer to your AiV Receiver user's guide to find out how analog / digital audio switching works . If your AiV Receiver's remote control has an Analog / Digital Audio key , you can use the GUIDE key with the following models to control switching : Mitsubishi M - VR900 Integra DTR - 9.1 Denon AVR - 2700 Kenwood VR - 2080 To make the switch , press the Device key on the TV's remote control , and from the Device Selection menu , press the Audio key . Then , with the AiV Receiver highlighted , press the GUIDE key to make the switch . o If you have some other AiV Receiver model , use the TV's learn function to learn the analog / digital audio code for the GUIDE key . Follow the instructions above for using the GUIDE key . o If your AiV Receiver has an Analog / Digital selection key on the front panel only , and not on the remote , then your only option is to use that key to perform switching . Q . The front panel of my A / V Receiver is too tail or too convex for the IR emitter signal to reach the remote control sensor of the A / V Receiver . What can I do ? A . There are several possible solutions . 1 . Mount the IR Emitter on the top , front edge of the AiV Receiver over the remote control sensor . Use tape to secure it in place . 2 . Mount the IR Emitter on the underside of the shelf above the AiV Receiver ( if the AiV Receiver is in a cabinet ) . Use double sided tape to secure it in place . 3 . Some small stick - on emitters from other manufacturers may be compatible with this TV's IR Emitter jacks . These may be used instead of the supplied IR Emitters . Q , I occasionally need to see the menu from my A / V Receiver ° How can I connect it to the TV for this purpose ? A . You can connect the video output of the AiV Receiver to an unused input on the TV . Then use Edit NetCommand to " Add " this as an " Other " device , not an AiV Receiver . On the " Connection " screen , indicate which TV input was used and check mark the video box . Make sure the TV input audio box and both the audio and video boxes for the AVR input are not check marked . You should also name this device so you can easily identify it on the Device Selection Menu . You can also use Input 3 on the front panek Q . I have a high definition receiver I would like to connect and it also has an S = video output I would like to be able use as well . is there any way to connect this receiver both ways ? A . Yes , this item wiii appear twice in the Device Selection Menu . Just add this unit once using the Component - 1 and once using one of the S - video inputs . Make sure you indicate that this is the same manufacturer for both . We suggest that you connect stereo audio outputs with the S - video to the TV so that you do not need to use two inputs on the AiV Receiver . If this is a NetOommand compatible HDTV receiver and HD or SD outputs can be switched by remote control , see Edit NetCommand in the next chapter for NetCommand control of this feature . Chapter 2 .
