About NetCommand IR Control

Note: To learn about NetCommand for HDMI devices, see Appendix E and “About Home-Theater Con- trol Systems,” page 17.

•NetCommand setup is optional.

•You may wish to use NetCommand IR control to supplement CEC control.

•You can perform NetCommand setup when the TV first recognizes a device during Auto Input Sensing or at any convenient time afterward.

•NetCommand operates by sending remote control signals from the TV to your other devices via the IR emitters, telling the devices to play, record, change inputs, adjust volume, change channels, or perform other functions. All this is accomplished with the TV’s remote control and the slide switch left in the TV position.

•The IR “Learning” feature of NetCommand allows the TV to learn the IR control signals for your A/V devices.

Important Note on NetCommand

Be sure to connect the IR emitter cable to the TV and properly place the emitters so that NetCommand can control your devices. See the explanation on the opposite page.

•You can choose the level of NetCommand control for your home theater.
