8. use and functions

8.1. cEc (consumer Electronics control) function
Dimension is equipped with the CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) function. If your TV and some of your other
devices (set-top box, Blu-ray player,...) support this technology, you can control Dimension using your TV's remote
control. Functions controlled:
- Volume: when using your TV's remote control to adjust the volume, your TV will transmit this information to
Dimension which will adjust its volume.
- Power on: as soon as you turn on your TV, Dimension will turn on selecting the HDMI™ TV input.
- Input selector: as soon as you turn on a device connected to the HDMI™ In input, Dimension will select this input.
To use the CEC function, enable this function on your TV. Caution: the CEC function may have a different name
depending on the TV manufacturer.

8.2. power mode

Dimension has 3 different power modes:
- Power on mode: Dimension plays audio from the device selected.
- Eco mode: Reduced power consumption, the automatic detection of signals from the HDMI™ CEC and DIGI In
inputs is activated.
- Standby mode: minimum power consumption (< 0.5 Watts).
Dimension will automatically switch from power-on mode to Eco mode when no audio signal has been detected for
20 minutes. When Dimension is in Eco mode, detection of CEC commands and signals is activated on the HDMI™
and DIGI In inputs respectively:
- When a signal is detected from the DIGI In input, Dimension automatically switches to power-on mode and activates
the DIGI In input.
- When a CEC command is detected on the HDMI™ In or HDMI™ TV inputs, Dimension automatically switches to
power-on mode and activates the HDMI™ In or HDMI™ TV inputs.
Note: If your TV is not equipped with the CEC function, the HDMI™ inputs will not detect any commands. In this case,
use the remote control supplied for turning on the device, controlling volume, and selecting input. Standby mode is
only available when no HDMI™ cable is connected to Dimension. This mode is activated after 6 hours of inactivity, or
by pressing and holding down the button for more than 2 seconds on Dimension's user interface. Press the
button on the remote control or on the user interface to turn Dimension on.

8.3. Setting tV audio format and audio-Video source

For the best 5.1 experience, make sure you configure the audio output formats of your TV or other devices. Depending
on the brand and the quality of the device, numerous audio settings may be available which may diminish the audio
experience with Dimension.
Consult the user manuals for your devices and navigate to the audio settings. In the menu, prioritise these two
following audio formats:
- Dolby Digital: 48kHz, up to 5.1 channels.
- DTS Surround: 48kHz, up to 5.1 channels.
If these formats are not indicated, your device may have an "automatic" setting. In this case, use this setting. Your
device will adapt the audio output format to Dimension using the best quality available.

8.4. Volume control

As well as using the CEC function, you can adjust Dimension's volume by pressing the + and - buttons on your remote
control or directly on Dimension's display.
The volume will be shown on Dimension's volume indicator.
The sound can be muted by pressing the button on your remote control.
When Dimension is muted, the volume indicator will glow. Press the button on your remote control again to
reactivate the sound, or press the button or the button.
