Controlling other devices through CEC Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) enables your TV and other CEC-compatible home entertainment devices to control one another in various ways. First, the CEC-compatible devices must "discover" one another and report their capabilities. After this, one device can control another according to the features you enable. For example, playing a disc on a Blu-ray™ player could switch the TV to the Blu-ray™ player's input. Or, powering off the TV could also power off the Blu-ray™ player and the home theater receiver. Discover connected CEC devices To discover CEC devices: 1 Make sure that your CEC-compatible devices are connected to the TV with a suitable High Speed HDMI® Cable that supports HDMI® ARC and CEC control. 2 Turn on each device and make sure all devices are CEC enabled. Tip(s) ● Some manufacturers have their own branded names for CEC functionality, so you might need to read the product documentation to correctly identify the CEC features of the device. 3 On the TV's Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > System > Control other devices (CEC) and then select Search for CEC devices. Press OK to repeat the discovery process, if necessary. When finished, the TV displays a list of CEC devices that are connected to each HDMI® input, as well as any devices that had previously been connected. The TV remembers the names of multiple CEC devices even when they are no longer connected. If the list is longer than the allowed space, press A to see a complete list in a scrollable window. Enable HDMI ® ARC HDMI® ARC is the audio return channel that is available on one of the TV's HDMI® ports. The audio return channel enables you to send a Dolby Audio™ signal back to a home theater receiver that is also sending an audio and video signal into the TV. Using HDMI® ARC reduces the number of cables needed and optionally lets you control the volume and mute state of the receiver by enabling system audio control. HDMI® ARC is disabled by default.To enable or disable system audio control, in the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > System > Control other devices (CEC) and highlight System audio control. Press OK to enable or disable the feature. Note(s) ● Enabling HDMI ARC also enables System audio control. After enabling HDMI ARC, you can disable System audio control if you prefer. 55 .English Enable system audio control System audio control enables the TV remote to change the volume and mute state of an amplifier or sound bar connected through HDMI®, and to display the external device's volume and mute status in the TV's on-screen display. The TV automatically turns off its internal speakers and sends volume and mute control signals to an external amplifier when all of the following are true: ● System audio control is enabled on the TV. ● The TV is connected to a CEC-compatible amplifier, it is powered on, and CEC discoverability is enabled. ● The CEC-compatible amplifier's HDMI® ARC connector is connected to the TV's HDMI ARC connector with a suitable HDMI® cable. When the CEC-compatible amplifier is off, the TV automatically turns on its speakers (unless you have turned them off as described in Turning off the TV speakers for home theater use L p. 54) and resumes local control of volume and mute state. To enable or disable system audio control, in the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > System > Control other devices (CEC) and highlight System audio control. Press OK to enable or disable the feature. Enable 1-touch play 1-touch play enables a device to control which TV input is active. For example, pressing Play on your Blu-ray™ player switches the TV to the Blu-ray™ input. 1-touch play is disabled by default. To enable 1-touch play, in the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > System > Control other devices (CEC) and highlight 1-touch play. Press OK to enable or disable the feature. Enable system standby The system standby feature causes other devices to power off when you power off your TV. Depending on the CEC System Standby implementation, it also might enable connected devices to power off your TV when you power off the device. System standby is disabled by default. To enable system standby, in the Home screen menu, navigate to Settings > System > Control other devices (CEC) and highlight System standby. Press OK to enable or disable the feature. Restarting the TV You can restart the TV when necessary. Restarting has the same effect as unplugging the TV power and then plugging it in again. To restart the TV, navigate to Settings > System > Power, and then select System restart. Highlight Restart, and then press OK to confirm restart. While the TV restarts, the screen goes dark for a few seconds, and then displays the startup screen for a few more seconds. When the restart operation completes, the TV displays the activity you selected in Power on settings L p. 46.
