Connecting an External Control Unit
When connecting the external control unit to the MAKE terminal, you can operate the following functions through the MAKE
terminal;
• Turn on or off the Monitor.
Preparation: The POWER switch on the rear must be set to “| (on)” (so that the Monitor is in standby mode).
• Select the input.
Preparation: “REMOTE SWITCH” should be set correctly to select your desired input (see page 24).
Notes:
• There is no remote control on/off switch. When a plug is inserted to the MAKE terminal, remote control through the external
control unit is automatically activated.
• When the other REMOTE terminals are used at the same time, control signals through the MAKE terminal have priority over
those through the other terminals.
