System Call Function - Denon AVR-2801 Operating Instructions Manual

System call function

• The included remote control unit is equipped with a system call function for transmitting multiple remote control signals when a single button
is pressed (this is often referred to as a "macro" function).
This function can be used to turn on the amplifier's power, select the input source, turn on the monitor TV's power, turn on a source
component's power and start playback, etc., all at the touch of a button.
(1) System call buttons
The buttons that can be used for the system call function are shown on the table below.
A series of up to 10 operations can be performed with the POWER ON and OFF buttons, and a series of up to 5 operations can be performed
with other buttons.
System call signals are already preset at the buttons indicated in the shaded section. System call signals can also be stored at any button on
the remote control unit, including the buttons in this section. (See page 30.)
