Helpful Hints for NetCommand Connections

Q.My VCR (or 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.You need to connect the device to the TV and then make changes to the A/V receiver setup.

1.Connect the VCR’s audio and video to the TV; connect the single set of stereo audio outputs to the TV only.

2.Perform the procedure for setting up a device connection. See chapter 3, “TV Setup,” and the section entitled “When You First Connect a Device.” NetCommand IR Learning is optional.

2.Press INPUT to display the Input Selection menu, highlight the VCR’s icon, and press ENTER to select the VCR.

3.Press MENU to open the Main menu, highlight the NetCommand icon, and press ENTER.

4.Under AV RECEIVER SETUP, confirm that the text box displays None.

5.Press EXIT.

After performing these steps, the TV will automatically pass the audio signal to the A/V receiver.

Q.I have both the TV stereo audio output and TV digital audio output connected to the same input designa- tions 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 A/V Receiver if you want to hear MP3 audio through the A/V receiver. Refer to your A/V Receiver user’s guide to find out how analog/digital audio switching works.

Q.The front panel of my A/V Receiver is too tall 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.

•Mount the IR Emitter on the top, front edge of the A/V Receiver over the remote control sensor. Use tape to secure it in place.

•Mount the IR Emitter on the underside of the shelf above the A/V Receiver (if the A/V Receiver is in a cabinet). Use double sided tape to secure it in place.

•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.Connect the A/V Receiver’s video output to an unused input on the TV and then use the A/V receiver’s remote control to display the menu.

1.Connect the video output of the A/V Receiver to an unused input on the TV; Input 3 on the front panel is the most convenient. The Auto Input Sensing screen will displays when the TV detects the new connection,

2.Press EXIT to close the screen without naming the input.

3.Select Input 3 (or other input you used) from the Input Selection menu: press INPUT, highlight the Input 3 icon, and press ENTER.

4.Press the MENU key on the A/V receiver’s remote control to open the A/V receiver’s menu.

5.When finished, disconnect the A/V receiver’s video input from the TV.

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 will appear twice in the Input Selection Menu. or HDMI input and once using one of the S-Videoinputs. outputs with the S-video input only.
