Note

Maximum number of devices that can be connected and controlled using the remote control unit of the plasma television is as follows: recorder x 2, player x 2, AV system x 1.

When connecting an AV system, be sure to place and connect it between the plasma television and recorder or player.

Do not connect an AV system that does not support the HDMI Control functions between the plasma television and a recorder/player, otherwise the HDMI Control functions may not operate properly.

When connecting an AV system that does not support the HDMI Control functions and a player/recorder that supports the HDMI Control functions to the plasma television, connect the AV system to the MONITOR OUT terminal on the plasma television using a stereo audio cable, and the recorder/player to the HDMI terminal using an HDMI compliant cable (see the illustration on the right).

HDMI Control may not operate properly if you do not use an HDMI cable that supports the HDMI 1.3 Specification.

After making connections, enter the setting in “Input Setting” for “HDMI Control Setting”. Be sure that the setting is entered in each HDMI input terminal to which the device is connected.

Settings in the connected device(s) are also required to use the HDMI Control functions. For details, see the operation manual that came with the connected device(s).

When a recorder is connected, its power is automatically switched on as the plasma television is turned On to help make the recording smoother.

When the image from a BD/DVD player or DVD recorder connected through an HDMI Control supported AV system is switched to display on sub screen in the 2-screen or picture-in- picture mode, the sub screen turns black without displaying any image.

For more information on the devices that support the HDMI Control functions, check the Pioneer Web site (see back cover).
