Connecting External Devices & NetCommand™ Setup
NetCommand™ is able to control many current audio and video devices by sending remote control signals
from the TV to each device. NetCommand™ will also automatically switch the TV and compatible Audio/
Video (A/V) Receivers to the correct input used with each device. It is important that the inputs on the TV
and AV Receiver match the NetCommand™ Setup.
To simplify the installation of NetCommand™, there is a step-by-step on-screen NetCommand™ Setup
procedure. This procedure details the type and brands of devices you are connecting to the TV. The
NetCommand™ Setup also assigns preset TV and AV Receiver inputs for each device. You should
connect each device to the TV input (both audio and video) and to the AV Receiver (audio) as shown in
Figure 1.
NetCommand™ Setup provides an edit option so you may delete a type of product you do not have,
change the inputs you used for connecting each device or add devices not included in the presets
above. See Editing NetCommand™ Setup later in this chapter. See Connection Helpful Hints, inside
back cover, for additional information.
