the same ENTER key for both operations.

the original remote control uses the same key for
menus and channel selection:
Learn the ENTER, SELECT, or OK key in the
NetCommand Enter learning position.

remote control has a separate ENTER key for this
function):

Setting Up NetCommand Control of an A/V Receiver

Several varieties of A/V receiver control are described
here using the Inputs > AV Receiver menu, shown on
this page.
• Controlling power and volume is described on this
page.
• For most equipment setups, see "A/V Receiver
Control: Automatic Audio Switching" on the next
page.
• If your A/V receiver has an HDMI output, you have
the option of sending both audio and video through
the A/V receiver over a single HDMI cable to the TV.
See "A/V Receiver Control: Automatic Video and
Audio Switching via HDMI," page 60.
Note: To set up control of other device types, see
"Initial NetCommand Setup for Most Devices,"
page 53.
A/V Receiver Control: Power and Volume
Perform this setup to operate the A/V receiver's power
and volume functions with the TV's remote control.
To perform this setup you need:
• The remote controls for both the TV and the
A/V receiver.
• The IR emitter cable supplied with the TV.
Before You Begin
1.
Connect your A/V receiver to the TV and any addi-
tional devices. See chapter 3, "TV Connections,"
for suggestions. Important: You must connect the
A/V receiver to the TV's audio output; use the TV's
AVR AUDIO OUTPUT or DIGITAL AUDIO OUTPUT
jack.
2.
Connect the IR emitter cable to the TV and position
the IR emitter where it can send signals to the A/V
receiver. See "IR Emitter Placement," page 52.
3.
Set the TV's remote control slide switch to the TV
position and power on the TV if not already on.

A/V receiver's remote control.
2 A check mark next to a key name indicates it
has been "learned" by NetCommand.

TV uses to uniquely identify A/V receiver inputs.
4 After "learning" IR codes for A/V receiver inputs,
use the Assign Input column to identify the device
connected to the associated A/V receiver input.
For example, if you "learned" the A/V receiver's
TV audio input as Input1, select TV Audio from
the Assign Input1 column. Likewise, if you
"learned" the A/V receiver's DVD input as Input2,
select DVD in the Assign Input2 column.
