NetCommand Setup

Initial NetCommand Setup

To perform this procedure, you need:

•The remote controls for both the TV and the device you want to control.

•An IR emitter cable available from Mitsubishi.

Note: To set up an A/V receiver, see “Setting Up A/V Receiver Control,” page 69.

1.Connect and position the IR emitters for the devices you wish to control. See “IR Emitters” on the previous page.

2.Set the TV’s remote control to TV mode and power on the TV.

NetCommand and Device-Specific Keys

Device-specific keys are those which have no equivalent on the TV’s remote control. Use any of these methods to set up NetCommand control for these keys.

•TOOLS Menu. In some cases, the TV will, by default, assign a key to the TOOLS menu. See the table below.

Examples of Default NetCommand

Assignments in the TOOLS Menu

Cable Box, Sat-	3	MENU
ellite Receiver

DVD, DVR,	3	SETUP
Blu-ray
	6	TOP MENU
	9	ANGLE
VCR	3	MENU

NetCommand’s default setup assigns some device-specific keys to the TOOLS menu when “learned.” These key functions are accessible only with the TOOLS key.

•F Keys. There are four F keys, F1 through F4, which you can assign to any function on the device’s remote control. For a cable box, “learn” the F keys as the A, B, C, D keys.

•Arbitrary Key Assignment. You can assign a device key arbitrarily to any “unlearned” key on the TV’s remote control. Make a note of the key name and function for later reference.

3.Switch the TV to the desired input to control. Press INPUT, highlight the input icon, and press ENTER.

4.Open the NetCommand Inputs > Learn menu.

5.The first function highlighted in the Learn screen is always Power On. Aim the TV’s remote control at the TV and press ENTER to begin learning for that function.

6.When the Power On text starts flashing, aim the device’s remote control at the TV and hold the POWER key until a check mark appears next to Power On.

•If the text stops flashing before the check mark appears, repeat the previous step.

•To remove the key from NetCommand control, press the CANCEL key while the key name is highlighted.

•To verify the device’s response to the IR code, press ENTER to send out the code.

Inputs > Learn screen. Key names marked with a check have been “learned.”

Some device-specific keys, such as MENU, are available only from the TOOLS menu after “learning.”

7.Use navigation keys on the TV’s remote control to highlight other keys on the list. Repeat steps 5 and 6 for each additional function you wish to control through NetCommand.

8.If the device has a separate POWER OFF key, use navigation keys on the TV’s remote to highlight Power Off. Repeat the earlier steps to “learn” the POWER OFF key.

If the device has no POWER OFF key, skip this step.

9.Press EXIT to finish NetCommand “learning” for the current device.
