tion occurs when the device is next powered on.
1. Connect your devices to the TV, making note of which
TV input you have used for each device.
The TV and the devices can be either on or off when
connecting. If the TV is powered off, the detection

the device under NetCommand control, you must
perform NetCommand "learning" for the new device.
