To connect an Audio Receiver and Playback Device, you will need:

three HDMI cables (- page 20)

Note:

If several devices are connected, the CE-Link feature may not operate properly.

For proper operation, it is recommended that you use HDMI

cables with the HDMI Logo ().

Before controlling the device(s):

After completing the above connections, set the CE-Link Setup menu as you desire (- page 75).

The connected devices must also be set. For details, see the operation manual for each device.

The CE-Link feature uses CEC technology as regulated by the HDMI standard.

This feature is limited to models incorporating Toshiba’s CE-Link. However, Toshiba is not liable for those operations. Refer to individual instruction manuals for compatibility information.
