Theatre, not the TV.

N

Connect only one Home Theatre.

You can connect an Anynet

+

device using the HDMI 1.3 cable. Some HDMI cables may not support Anynet

+

functions.

Anynet

+

works when the AV device supporting Anynet

+

is in the Standby or On status.

N

Anynet

+

supports up to 12 AV devices in total. Note that you can connect up to 3 devices of the same type.
