Appendices Appendix C: HDMI Control of CEC Devices Many new HDMI devices have a feature called Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) or HDMI Control. HDMI Control allows one device, such as the TV, to control other devices, such as an A/V receiver or disc player. Use of CEC is optional. Each manufacturer chooses which CEC functions to support so it is difficult to predict which devices and features are compatible with Mitsubishi’s HDMI Control.
Appendices HDMI Control of an HDMI A/V Receiver and Connected Devices Connect the A/V receiver to the TV before connecting any other device to the A/V receiver. 1. Enable HDMI Control for the A/V receiver as 2. 3. 4. 5. described in “Enabling HDMI Control of CEC Devices” on the opposite page.
