Sony STR-DN1040 Operating Guide

The “BRAVIA” Sync function allows 
communication between Sony products 
such as TV, Blu-ray Disc player, DVD 
player, AV amplifier, etc. that supports the 
Control for HDMI function.
By connecting Sony equipment that is 
compatible with the “BRAVIA” Sync with 
an HDMI cable (not supplied), operation is 
simplified as follows:
• One-Touch Play (page 83)
• System Audio Control (page 83)
• System Power-Off (page 83)
• Scene Select (page 84)
• Home Theatre Control (page 84)
• Remote Easy Control (page 84)

Control for HDMI is a mutual control 
function standard used by HDMI CEC 
(Consumer Electronics Control) for HDMI 
(High-Definition Multimedia Interface).

We recommend that you connect the 
receiver to products featuring “BRAVIA” 
Sync.

• You may use “One Touch Play”, “System 

Audio Control”, and “System Power-Off” 
function with non-Sony equipment. However, 
compatibility with all non-Sony equipment is 
not guaranteed.

• “Scene Select” and “Home Theatre Control” 

features are Sony proprietary functions. They 
cannot operate with non-Sony equipment.

• Equipment not compatible with “BRAVIA” 

Sync cannot activate these features.

• The Control for HDMI function does not work 

on an equipment connected to the HDMI OUT 
B jack of the receiver.

• Some of the operations may be supported when 

you connect a MHL device (page 85).
