Panasonic DMREZ27EB Operating Guide

RQT8856

You can enjoy linked operations with the TV and receiver by using VIERA Link or Q Link.

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.

“HDAVI Control 2” is the newest standard (current as of 

February, 2007) for Panasonic’s HDAVI Control compatible 

equipment.

This standard is compatible with Panasonic’s conventional 

HDAVI equipment.
