14 2. TV Setup
Note: For connection and setup of a personal com-
puter, see the information later in this chapter.
1. See chapter 3, “TV Connections,” for recommen-
dations on connecting your devices.
2. Connect your devices to the TV, making note of
which TV input is used for each device.
The TV and the devices can be either on or off
when connecting.
First select a
device type.
Next perform
IR “learning.”
Auto Input Sensing screen for most device types. The
Learn icon appears only on models with NetCommand.
3. Power on the TV if not already on. When the TV
detects a connection, the Auto Input Sensing
screen opens.
• Most Device Types: Specify the device
type and then, if desired, proceed directly to
NetCommand setup if available.
a. In the Auto Input Sensing screen, press
to move through the device list to select
the device type connected to the input.
The device type you select here will appear
in the Input Selection menu.
b. If NetCommand IR “learning” is available on
your TV model, you can perform “learning”
now or at a later time. To perform now,
highlight the Learn icon and press
ENTER
.
See chapter 6, “NetCommand” for more.
• A/V Receiver: The TV can detect audio con-
nections on the
DIGITAL AUDIO OUT
jack and
the right (red) analog
AVR AUDIO OUTPUT
jack.
Note for Analog A/V Receivers: When you
disconnect an analog A/V receiver, manually
change the Speakers setting to TV to hear
sound from the TV speakers.
If NetCommand IR “learning” is available for your
TV model, perform “learning” now or at a later
time. To perform now, highlight th
e Learn icon
in the Auto Output Sensing screen and press
ENTER
. See chapter 6, “NetCommand” for more.
• HDMI Devices Compatible with the TV’s
NetCommand for HDMI Feature: Compatible
Setting Up TV Inputs, continued
HDMI devices are often recognized automati-
cally by the TV. The TV’s remote control may
operate some device functions without further
setup. You can add more control functions if
desired. Program the TV’s remote control or,
in the case of a Y or 734 series TV, perform
NetCommand IR “learning” to add functions.
4 Press
EXIT
to close the Auto Input Sensing screen.
The TV will then display the Auto Input Sensing
screen for the next connection it finds.
More About Auto Input Sensing
• Choose a different name for each input.
• Antenna inputs (
ANT 1/ANT 2
) are never detected,
although you can turn off unused antenna inputs in
the Inputs > Name menu.
• You can change the device type at a later time
using the Inputs > Name menu. Any “learned”
NetCommand IR codes will be erased, however.
• If you wish to change devices on an HDMI input:
1. Disconnect the HDMI device.
2. Turn off the HDMI input in the Inputs > Name
menu.
3. Connect the new device and the Auto Input
Sensing screen will display. If you want the
device under NetCommand IR control, perform
NetCommand “learning” for the new device.
Controlling A/V Receiver Sound Volume
Although the TV detects when you connect an A/V
receiver, you must use one of the methods below to
control sound volume from the A/V receiver.
With a Standard TV Setup
• Recommended Method: Program the TV’s remote
control for your A/V receiver and enable the Audio
Lock feature. See Appendix D, “Programming the
Remote Control.”
• Program the TV’s remote control for your A/V
receiver and set the TV remote’s slide switch to
the
AUDIO
position to control volume. Set the switch
back to the
TV
position to control the TV.
• Use the remote control that came with the A/V
receiver.
With NetCommand Control of an A/V Receiver (Y
and 734 series only)
• Set up NetCommand control of the A/V receiver’s
volume functions in the Inputs > AVR menu. The
TV’s remote will then automatically control A/V
receiver volume. See chapter 6, “NetCommand.”
• Use any of the methods described for the standard
TV setup.
