INTRODUCTION
The NAD HTR-1 Universal Remote Control can replace up to eight different individual remote controls, offering
command of the most important and often used controls, thus significantly reducing "remote control clutter":
Amplifier, Tuner, CD, DVD, VCR, TV, Cable, Custom.
If the NAD HTR-1 came packed with an NAD product, such as an AV receiver, all commands will already have been
programmed in and is ready for use with the product. Where appropriate, the correct generic remote control
commands for other NAD products, such as CD players for instance, have also been programmed in.
The HTR-1 comes with a large database of remote control commands for other brands, making it easy to configure
to suit the particular mix of brands and models in your system. The database contains remote control commands for
over four hundred brands. In the unlikely case you are not able to find the remote control commands for a specific
brand, the HTR-1 also allows you to "learn" remote commands from the original remote control so that that device
can still be remotely operated with the NAD HTR-1.
GENERAL
Alkaline batteries are recommended for maximum operating life. Three AAA (R 03) batteries should be fitted in the
battery compartment at the rear of the Remote Control handset. When replacing batteries, check that they have
been put in the right way round, as indicated on the base of the battery compartment.
The keys on the HTR-1 are backlit for ease of operation in darkened environments. Backlighting is automatically
activated as soon as any key is pressed. To preserve batteries, it switches itself off automatically five seconds after
the last key press.
When you find that operating range and angle are rapidly decreasing and that the key backlighting is getting
dimmer, it may be time to replace the batteries. The NAD HTR-1 has a non-volatile memory so that, even if the
batteries are removed for a prolonged period of time, it will retain all settings and commands as programmed. The
HTR-1 will operate up to a distance of 16ft (5m). Direct sunlight or very bright ambient lighting may affect the
operating range and angle.
NOTE
There must be a clear line-of-sight path from the remote control to each of the devices' infrared receiver (usually
located behind a display window on the front panel); if that path is obstructed, the remote control may work
erratically or not at all.
USING THE NAD HTR-1
The HTR-1 will replicate the most common commands for the device selected. For instance, "CHANNEL UP" will
GB
advance preset or channel selection for either Tuner, TV or Cable device; but will move cursor up with DVD selected
as device. Once the remote control has been configured to suit your system (refer to chapters "Setting up Pre-
programmed Remote commands" and "Learning Remote Commands") it is ready for use. The numbers refer to
the drawing.
The table below specifies what commands are available for all devices in the factory default setting. The devices
Amp, Tuner, CD and DVD come standard with remote control commands suitable for most NAD remote controlled
products.
NOTE
The key listing below specifies what each key will do from the factory default setting for the various devices.
Refer to the original instruction manual for the devices in your system to check how these respond to specific
commands.
Not all commands on the HTR-1 may be available for the devices it is used with or there may be commands
not available on your specific device. The key listing below assumes factory default setting or settings from
database but not remote commands learned from an original remote control
SELECTING WHICH DEVICE TO OPERATE
Each of the four device keys allows operation of two different devices, up to eight different devices can be
controlled. The devices that can be controlled are labelled on the key itself and directly over it.
SELECTING PRIMARY DEVICES
To access one of the four primary devices (the ones as labelled on the key itself: AMP, TUNER, CD, DVD), simply
press the required key.
Primary Device keys: AMP; TUNER; CD; DVD (No. 3).
SELECTING SECONDARY DEVICES
To access one of the secondary devices, first press the "SHIFT" key (No. 9) (STATUS LED, No. 1, lights up), and within
the default time of 5 seconds, press the required device key (VCR, TV, CABLE, CUSTOM). The Device key will light
up with Status LED briefly to confirm, after which both will extinguish.
Secondary Device keys: VCR; TV; CABLE; CUSTOM (No. 3).
