Set up EasyLink devices 

What you can do 

You can get the most out of your 
HDMI-CEC-compliant devices with Philips 
EasyLink enhanced control features. Connect 
your HDMI-CEC compliant devices through 
HDMI to your TV and control them at the 
same time with your TV remote control. 

Note:

 Other brands describe HDMI-CEC 

functionality differently. Some examples are 
Anynet (Samsung), Aquos Link (Sharp) or 
BRAVIA Sync (Sony). Not all brands are fully 
compatible with Philips EasyLink. 

 

 

After you have switched on Philips EasyLink, 
the following features are available: 

One-touch play

 

When you play an HDMI-CEC compliant 
device, the TV switches on from standby and 
switches to the correct source. 

One-touch standby

 

When you press    on the TV remote 
control, the TV and all HDMI-CEC 
compliant devices switch to standby mode. 

Auto switch off inactive devices

 

If a HDMI-CEC compliant device has been 
inactive for some time, it switches to standby 
mode. 

EasyLink remote control

 

You can control multiple HDMI-CEC 
compliant devices with your TV remote 
control. 

System audio control

 

If you connect an HDMI-CEC compliant 
device that includes speakers through the 
HDMI ARC connector, you can choose to 
hear the TV audio from those speakers 
instead of the TV speakers. 

Retain picture quality

 

If your TV picture quality is affected by the 

picture-processing features of other devices, 
you can switch on Pixel Plus Link to retain 
picture quality.
