on your TV
The TV on/off sensor enables the system to automatically switch the TV on, as needed, when
another video source (DVD, cable/satellite box, etc.) is selected. If you choose not to use the
sensor, you need to turn on your TV separately. See Figure 19.
Note: The TV on/off sensor is not included on LIFESTYLE
connectors.
With larger TVs you may want a second person to help as you follow the steps below:
1. Plug the sensor cord connector into the TV SENSOR jack on the media center.
2. Temporarily position the TV on/off sensor on the back of your TV as shown in Figure 19.
3. Test the sensor and enable the feature. See "Programming your LIFESTYLE
remote to control your TV" in your Operating Guide.
A. Turn the TV on. Press the System button on the LIFESTYLE
Access Video/TV power status.
B. As one person moves the sensor near the rear vent area of the TV, another person
observes when TV Power Status changes from "TV not detected" to "TV ON".
C. In the menu navigate to TV Power (directly above TV Power Status).
Change this from "Manual" to "Automatic."
D. You will need to select the TV brand and device code, as explained in the guide.
Note: DO NOT use the mounting strip to permanently mount the sensor until you have tested
and enabled this automatic feature as explained in the Operating Guide.
