Jeee 1394 Devices And Netcommand® Control - Mitsubishi Electric HD-6000 Owner's Manual

IEEE 1394 Devices and NetCommand® Contro
See pages 31-32 for information regarding compatible IEEE 1394 devices and connection styles. The HDTV receiver/
controller is not able to control IEEE 1394 devices that use other types of control protocols. Incompatible digital audio,
video and/or control information wilI stiII be able to pass from one device through the HDTV receiver/controlIe to another
device on the network. These incompatible devices may not appear on the Device Selection menu or in the Review
screen of the Edit NetCommand menu.
NetOommand ControJ of DigitaJ Devices Using the "Learn" Feature.
Some IEEE 1394 devices such as cable boxes or satellite receivers will not have compatible digitat control signals
or require the use of the device's own remote control. Some of these IEEE 1394 devices will not display on-screen
information through the IEEE 1394 connection and will require using an analog connection for on-screen displays. In
many cases, to control these digita! devices, the Learning feature of NetCommand can be used.
1. Place an IR Emitter for NetCommand in front of the device's remote control sensor (see IR Emitters, page 30,31).
2. On the Name for 1394 Device screen (Figure 2, page 55) use ADJUST and ENTER to check mark the Analog
Connection box.
3. Select the device type on the IEEE 1394 Device Type screen (Figure 3, page 56) of DBS or similar tuning device.
4. If desired, using the ADJUST buttons enter a custom Name on the Name screen (Figure 18, page 50).
5. At the Device Screen, Select "Other" as a manufacturer and then highlight "Learn" and press ENTER (Figure 4, page
56).
6. Follow the device learning instructions found on the screen(s) or in the Edk NetCommand section of Chapter 3.
7. The Connection screen (Figure 5, page 56) follows the learning screens. If analog connections are used, select the
correct inputs.
8. Proceed wkh the Finish screen.
This will allow NetCommand to use the learned remote control signal to control these IEEE 1394 devices.
Note: When using the NetCommand learning feature for IEEE 1394 devices that do not have analog connections,
the GUIDE function will require pressing GUIDE twice. The first press of GUIDE will display the HDTV receiver/"
controller's digital channel guide. The second press will display the program guide for the device if an IEEE 1394
Guide is available.
