Set Up the Remote Control
Install the Batteries in the Remote Control
remove the remote control's battery cover, insert the three supplied AAA batteries as
shown in the illustration, and replace the battery cover.
NOTE: Remove the protective film from the AVR's front panel to keep it from
reducing the remote control's effectiveness.
Program the Remote to Control Your Source Devices and TV
In addition to using the remote to control the AVr itself and the Am/fm radio, you can
program the remote to control up to five additional audio/video source devices plus
your tV via the cable/Sat, disc, Server, game, Stb and tV Source Selector buttons. the
remote is also ready to operate your ipod or iphone device when the device is connected
to the AVr's front-panel uSb port.
once you have programmed the remote, you can switch the remote's control mode to
access the functions for a particular source device by pressing the remote's Source
Selector button for that device. to control the AVr, press the remote's AVr button.
before you begin programming the remote, review the connections you filled in on the
Input connections and Source buttons table on page 13. the Source Selector buttons are
assigned to the components that you listed in the table's "connected device" column.
each of the programmable Source Selector buttons is set at the factory to control that
specific type of device: the cable/Sat button is set to control cable/satellite tuners, the
disc button is set to control dVd and blu-ray disc players, the Server button is set to
control digital music servers, the game button is set to control game consoles, the Stb
box is set to control dVrs and tiVo
you can program an unused Source Selector button to control a source device that is
different from that button's factory setting (such as programming the Server button to
control a dVd player or a second tV), but completely different types of devices, such
as cd players and Vcrs, cannot be controlled at all. See Advanced Remote Control
Programming, on page 26, for more information.

Making Connections, continued,
and Set Up the Remote Control
1. turn on the source device you want to program the remote to control.
2. look up the code numbers for the device in tables A10 – A17 in the Appendix. write all
the applicable code numbers in a convenient place.
3. press and hold the Source Selector button for that source device until the program
Indicator led on the remote starts to flash, then release it. (this procedure places the
remote in the programming mode.)
4. Aim the remote at the source device and use the remote's number buttons to enter a
code number from Step 2, above.
a) If the device turns off, press the Source Selector button again to save its code. the
Source Selector button will flash, and the remote will exit the programming mode.
b) If the device does not turn off, enter another code number.
c) If you run out of code numbers for a device, you can search through all of the codes
in the remote's library for devices of its type by pressing the up or down button
repeatedly until the device turns off. when it does, press the Source Selector button
to save the code.
5. check that other functions control the device correctly. Sometimes manufacturers use
the same power code for several models, while other function codes vary. repeat this
process until you've programmed a satisfactory code set that operates most of the
device's functions.
6. If you searched through the remote's code library to find the code, you can find out
which code number you have programmed by pressing and holding the Source Selector
button to re-enter the programming mode. then press the remote's ok button, and the
program Indicator led will flash in the code sequence. one flash represents "1," two
flashes represent "2," and so forth. A series of quick flashes represents "0." record
the code number programmed for each device in table A6 in the Appendix.
repeat Steps 3 – 6 for each source device you want to control with the AVr remote.
In general, the label for each button on the remote describes the button's function when
used to control the AVr. however, the button may perform a very different function when
used to control another device. refer to the Remote Control Function List, table A9 in the
Appendix, for each button's functions with the various product types.
you can also program the remote to perform macros (preprogrammed code sequences
that execute many code commands with a single button press) and "punch-through"
programming (allowing the remote to operate a device's channel or transport controls
when the remote is in another device's mode). See Advanced Remote Control
Programming, on page 26, for instructions on these functions.
