CONNECTING A/V NETWORK
Your Hitachi Plasma Television is equiped with an A/V Network feature. This feature helps to control your external Audio/Video
equipment (VCR, Set Top Box, DVD, etc.). Once this is setup, it allows your IR Mouse connector to control your equipment using
your Hitachi Plasma TV Remote Control. You can use your Hitachi remote control to control the Audio/Video equipment command
without the equipment's remote control.
The Plasma Television AVC Center has 2 IR BLASTER jacks. Each IR Mouse cable can connect up to 2 external Audio/Video
