Monitors with CEC

You can use some Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) features with HDMI-connected monitors that
support the CEC protocol.
Your system supports the following CEC commands:
• System Standby: When the system goes to sleep, connected monitors switch to standby mode to
save power.
• One Touch Play: You can wake connected monitors with your system remote control.
Remember the following when enabling CEC on your system:
• If you connect a monitor with an HDMI splitter, the splitter must support CEC. Due to HDMI splitter
limitations, monitors behind a 1xM (one-input multiple-output) splitter might not switch to the correct
input when waking up.
• The system doesn't respond to CEC commands from a monitor remote control.
• If a monitor is connected to two endpoints, the monitor displays the active endpoint when the other
is sleeping.

Enable CEC Controls

You can enable CEC in the system web interface.
Make sure your monitor's CEC settings are configured correctly (see your monitor's documentation).
Procedure
1. In the system web interface, go to Admin Settings > Audio/Video/Content > Monitors >
Consumer Electronics Control.
2. Select the Enable Consumer Electronics Control check box.

Disable CEC Controls

You can disable CEC in the system web interface.
Procedure
1. In the system web interface, go to Admin Settings > Audio/Video/Content > Monitors >
Consumer Electronics Control.

Configure Video Input Settings

You can customize your video input settings, such as enabling connected cameras, adjusting camera
orientation, or specifying whether people or content display on connected monitors.
Note: The system doesn't display settings that don't apply to your camera. For example, you don't see
tracking options if your connected camera doesn't support tracking.
