Audio Return Channel
Audio Return Channel (ARC) is a function that enables digital sound signals to
be sent via an HDMI cable.

after the connection, turn the equipment on and then switch the TV on. Set the input mode to

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.
Please refer to the individual manuals for other manufacturers’ equipment supporting the VIERA Link function.
