Many newer HDMI devices have a feature called
Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) or HDMI Control.
HDMI Control allows one device, such as the TV, to
control other devices, such as an A/V receiver or disc
player. Use of CEC is optional.
Each manufacturer chooses which CEC functions to
support so it is difficult to predict which devices and
features are compatible with Mitsubishi’s HDMI Control.
You may find that CEC functions for a specific device are
limited.
To use HDMI Control, you must enable it in both
the TV and the device.
• In the TV. Enable HDMI control from the New
Device Found screen or from the Inputs > HDMI
Control menu.
• I
n the Device. Most devices with HDMI CEC com-
patibility let you turn it on or off in the device menus,
where it is typically listed as “HDMI Control.”
