Using the Control for HDMI function
By using the Control for HDMI function, and connecting equipment
that is compatible with the Control for HDMI function via a High
Speed HDMI cable, operation is simplified with the features below.
The Control for HDMI function is enabled by setting “CTRL (Control
for HDMI)” to “ON” (page 11). The default setting is “ON.”
When you turn off the TV, the system and the connected equipment
will turn off automatically.
If you turn on the system while you are watching the TV, the TV
sound will be output from the speakers of the system automatically.
The volume of the system will be adjusted when you adjust the
volume using the TV’s remote control.
If the TV sound was output from the speakers of the system the last
time you watched the TV, the system will be turned on automatically
when you turn on the TV again.
If the TV is compatible with the Audio Return Channel (ARC)
technology, a High Speed HDMI cable connection will also allow
sending digital audio signals from the TV to the system. You do not
need to make a separate audio connection for listening to TV sound
from the system.
The ARC function is enabled by setting “ARC (Audio return channel)”
to “ON” (page 11). The default setting is “ON.”
When you activate the equipment (Blu-ray Disc™ player,
“PlayStation
®
4,” etc.) connected to the system with a High Speed
HDMI cable, the connected TV is turned on automatically and the
input signal of the system is switched to the appropriate HDMI input.
 The above features may not operate with certain equipment.
 Depending on the settings of the connected equipment, the Control for
HDMI function may not work correctly. Refer to the operating
instructions of the equipment.
