Using the VIERA Link “HDAVI
Control TM ”
VIERA Link “HDAVI Control”
VIERA Link “HDAVI Control” is a convenient function that offers linked
operations of this unit, and a Panasonic TV (VIERA) under “HDAVI
Control”. You can use this function by connecting the equipment with the
HDMI cable. See the operating instructions for connected equipment for
operational details.
≥ VIERA Link “HDAVI Control”, based on the control functions provided by
HDMI which is an industry standard known as HDMI CEC (Consumer
Electronics Control), is a unique function that we have developed and
added. As such, its operation with other manufacturers’ equipment that
supports HDMI CEC cannot be guaranteed.
≥ This unit supports “HDAVI Control 4” function.
“HDAVI Control 4” is the newest standard (current as of December,
2008) for Panasonic’s HDAVI Control compatible equipment. This
standard is compatible with Panasonic’s conventional HDAVI
equipment.
≥ Please refer to individual manuals for other manufacturers’ equipment
supporting VIERA Link function.
The TV with “HDAVI Control 2 or later” function enables the following
operation: VIERA Link Control only with TV’s remote control (for
“HDAVI Control 2 or later”) (B 14).

above.
