What is VIERA Link “HDAVI Control”?
VIERA Link “HDAVI Control” is a convenient function that offers
linked operations of this unit, and a Panasonic television (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 2” function.
The TV with “HDAVI Control 2” function enables the following
operation:
VIERA Link Control only with TV’s remote control (for “HDAVI

2007) for Panasonic’s HDAVI Control compatible equipment.
This standard is compatible with Panasonic’s conventional
