Till Anders och Martin:
BeoVision Eclipse supports CEC on all HDMI sockets. CEC allows control of connected equipment without the use of PUC cables as it works via the HDMI connection.
Different vendors have their own understanding and implementation of CEC, and some equipment will not work well with the BeoVision Eclipse. There is often a lot of limitations when using CEC, and we still recommend using PUC when possible.
The CEC will remain active until you configure a PUC control for HDMI. When the PUC is configured, the BeoVision Eclipse will not send CEC control commands, but will only control the connected device via IR PUC.
When using PUC together with a device that supports CEC, it is important that you disable the CEC.
There are different possibilities of disabling CEC:
Method 1 - used if you have a mix of CEC and PUC controlled HDMI sources:
Set "HDMI Control" to "OFF" in the source setup on the HDMI connector in question. This will disable CEC in that one HDMI e.g. HDMI A, and CEC will still work on HDMI B-D.
Some CEC commands cannot be blocked this way. BeoVision Eclipse is still open for certaincommands e.g. source selection, which is why it is recommended to switch off CEC in the source (e.g. Blu-ray player) if possible.
Method 2 - used if all HDMI-connected sources are controlled with PUC:
If no CEC is used on HDMI A-D, we recommend disabling "HDMI Control" on all SoundCenter HDMI's (A, B, C & D) regardless if only one HDMI socket is used.
By disabling "HDMI Control" on all HDMI's, the CEC will be completely ignored by the TV when not in standby.
If this CEC setting/HDMI Control not taken into consideration when installing a TV, the connected devices can send CEC commands to the BeoVision Eclipse which will cause conflict with the PUC control and potentially cause unwanted behaviour like automatic source change or the TV switching on by itself.
