Connecting an IR Blaster (IR Blaster compatible
models only)
IR Blaster compatible models have [IR Blaster setup] in [Settings] — [External inputs].
The IR Blaster allows you to operate a set-top box or AV Receiver that is connected to the TV, with the
TV’s remote control.
(IR Blaster compatible models may not be available depending on your model/country.)
(A)
Set-top box or AV Receiver
(B)
IR Blaster cable
(C)
IR Blaster jack (socket)
To set up the IR Blaster
Press the HOME button, then select [Settings] — [External inputs] — [IR Blaster setup].
Select the desired device from the list, then follow the on-screen instructions.
Hint
The IR Blaster can operate an AV receiver. To set up an AV receiver, press the HOME button,
then select [Settings] — [External inputs] — [IR Blaster setup] — [AV receiver control setup].
If the AV receiver is a BRAVIA Sync-compatible device, an IR Blaster is not needed.
Note
Some external devices may not respond to some items in the “Action Menu”.
If you press and hold a button on the remote control, the operation may not be transmitted.
Instead, press the button repeatedly.
Make sure that the IR Blaster is correctly set up and the IR transmitter is located near the IR
receiver of the external device.
