Selecting the HDMI Pass Through function

You can select whether or not to use the HDMI Pass Through function. This function allows video and audio signals input through the HDMI IN jacks on the processor to be output to the TV connected to the HDMI OUT jack on the processor, even if the processor is in standby mode.
  1. Select [HDMI Pass Through:] on the menu.

  1. Select a setting.


Back
Returns to the previous screen.
Auto
Optimizes the HDMI Pass Through function of the processor according to the TV’s power status.
On (default)
Video and audio signals input through the HDMI IN jacks on the processor are output to the TV connected to the HDMI OUT jack on the processor, even if the processor is in standby mode.

Tip
  • The [Auto] setting alllows the processor to consume less power compared to the [On] setting. Select [Auto] when you want to save on power consumption.

Note
  • When the CONTROL FOR HDMI switch is set to “MODE1” and you set this item to [Auto], the HDMI Pass Through function is turned off a short time (about 30 seconds) after you turn off the TV, thus power is saved. The orange power indicator dims.
