Sending the Remote
Signal to the TV via the
Main Unit
When the main unit obstructs the
remote control sensor of the TV, the TV
remote control may not work. In that
case, enable the IR repeater function of
the system.
You can control the TV with the remote
control of the TV by sending the remote
signal from the rear of the main unit.
1
Press HOME.
The home menu appears on the TV
screen.
2
Select [Setup] from the home
menu.
The setup display appears on the TV
screen.
3
Select [System Settings] - [IR-
Repeater].
The [IR-Repeater] screen appears
on the TV screen.
4
Select [On].
• Be sure to check that the remote control
of the TV cannot control the TV, and then
set [IR-Repeater] to [On]. If it is set to [On]
when the remote control can control the
TV, appropriate operation may not be
obtained because of the interference
between the direct command from the
remote control and the command via the
main unit.
• On some TVs, this function may not work
correctly. In this case, place the main unit
slightly further away from the TV.
Using the Control for
HDMI Function
Connecting a device such as a TV or Blu-
ray Disc player compatible with the
Control for HDMI function* by HDMI
cable enables you to easily operate the
device by a TV remote control.
The following functions can be used
with the Control for HDMI function.
• System Power Off function
• System Audio Control function
• Audio Return Channel
• One-Touch Play function
• Menu Operation by TV Remote Control
These functions may work with devices
other than those manufactured by Sony,
but operation is not guaranteed.
* Control for HDMI is a standard used by
CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) for
allowing HDMI (High-Definition
Multimedia Interface) devices to control
each other.
Turn [System Settings] - [HDMI Settings]
- [Control for HDMI] on the system to
[On] (page 49). The default setting is
[On].
Enable the Control for HDMI function
settings for the TV and other device
connected to the system.
Tip
If you enable the Control for HDMI
(“BRAVIA” sync) function when using a TV
manufactured by Sony, the Control for
HDMI function of the system is also
enabled automatically. When settings are
completed, “DONE” appears in the front
panel display.
