Setting Up NetCommand Control of an A/V Receiver, continued
Setup to Control Automatic Switching of A/V Receiver Audio Inputs
Two different setups are described here:
Setup 1: Automatic A/V Receiver Switching to TV Audio Input
Setup 2: Automatic A/V Receiver Switching for a device sending audio directly to the A/V receiver
• Audio Available from TV only: Use Setup 1. |
Audio from ANT 1 and ANT 2 must be sent to the |
A/V receiver from the TV’s DIGITAL AUDIO OUT or |
analog AVR AUDIO OUTPUT. |
Use Setup 1 to make the A/V receiver switch to |
its designated TV audio input when viewing these |
sources. |
• HDMI, Digital Stereo Audio Only: Use Setup 1 |
Digital stereo audio from an HDMI connection |
is available both in digital format (from the TV’s |
DIGITAL AUDIO OUT) jack and in analog format |
(from the TV’s AVR AUDIO OUTPUT jack). |
• Analog Stereo Audio: Use Setup 1. |
Audio from sources with only analog stereo output |
(such as a VCR) can be sent either directly to the |
A/V receiver or through to the TV and then on to the |
A/V receiver. |
Mitsubishi recommends you send audio through |
could have HDMI output. A DVD player is used in this example.
Your setup may include additional devices with digital surround sound connected directly to the A/V receiver. These devices might be a DVD player plus a cable box or satellite receiver.
Before You Begin
1.Connect your A/V devices to the TV and connect your A/V receiver to the audio outputs on the TV and the DVD player. See chapter 3, “TV Connec- tions,” for suggestions.
2.Open the Inputs > AVR menu.
Note: The terms Input
Setup 1: Automatic A/V Receiver Switching to Its TV Audio Input
Most devices are set up like the VCR in this example, in which analog audio from the device is sent through the TV.
Use this setup for:
•Sources providing only analog stereo output, such as a VCR.
•Audio from ANT 1 and ANT 2

the TV as shown in the example. Setup 1 causes |
the A/V receiver to switch to its input designated for |
TV audio. |
If you have a digital A/V receiver, the TV makes the |
audio available by converting analog audio to a |
digital output. |
• Digital Surround Sound: Use Setup 2. |
A device can send digital surround sound such as |

IMPORTANT
To hear audio sent from the TV to the A/V receiver, you must have:
•physically connected the TV to the A/V receiver
•selected the A/V receiver as the audio
source. Press AUDIO, then | to show the |
Speakers option, then | to select the A/V |
Receiver. |
|
•“learned” the IR codes for the A/V receiver inputs
•chosen the correct input in the NetCommand A/V Receiver Learn screen
Setup 1: A/V receiver audio from the TV’s digital or analog audio output (DIGITAL AUDIO OUT or AVR AUDIO OUTPUT)
1.Under Learn/Name, navigate to highlight the area next to Input 1.
In this example, the IR code for the A/V receiver’s TV Audio input will be “learned” as Input 1.
2.Press ENTER on the TV’s remote control.
3.While the text Input1 is flashing, press and hold the TV INPUT key on the A/V receiver’s remote control.
4.When a check appears next to Input 1, release the TV INPUT key.
•If the text stops flashing before the check mark appears, repeat this step.
