Use Mode - Philips intelligent remote control User Manual

For convenience, the control panels loop around—when you're on the last
panel, pressing the lower scroll button takes you back to the first panel.
Similarly, if you're on the first panel, the upper scroll button takes you to the
last panel in the device. At the bottom of each panel is a panel number . It shows
how many control panels the device has and which panel is currently displayed.
To learn about the commands for each device, refer to Chapter 8, "Command
Reference."
When you choose a device from the Device menu, the remote control
NOTE
takes you to the last panel you accessed for the device. However, when you select
a device from Home, the remote control always takes you to the first panel of the
device. When you turn the touchscreen on after it has shut off automatically, the
remote control displays the same panel it displayed before shutting off. (The
exception is any mode other than Use mode; after several minutes idle, the
remote control reverts to Use mode automatically.)
Scroll buttons are repeating buttons; if you hold down a scroll button, the
TIP
scrolling continues until you let go.
