Passing HDMI signals through (Pass Through)
You can output HDMI signals to the TV even when the receiver is in standby mode.
- Select [Settings] - [HDMI Settings] from the home menu.
- Select [Pass Through].
- Select the setting you want.
- On (*): The receiver continuously outputs HDMI signals from the HDMI TV OUT jack when in standby mode.
- Auto: The receiver outputs HDMI signals to the TV from the HDMI TV OUT jack when the TV is turned on while the receiver is in the standby mode.
Sony recommends this setting if you are using a “BRAVIA” Sync-compatible Sony TV. This setting saves power in the standby mode compared to the [On] setting. - Off: The receiver does not output HDMI signals when in standby mode.
This setting saves power in the standby mode compared to the [On] setting.
* For USA, Canadian, and Australian models only
Note
- [Auto] can only work when [Control for HDMI] is set to [On].
- When the receiver is in standby mode, the (on/standby) indicator on the front panel lights up in amber if [Pass Through] is set to [On] or [Auto].
- When [Auto] is selected, it may take a little more time for the image and sound to be output to the TV than when [On] is selected.
