Volume Punch-Through; Channel Control Punch-Through - Harman Kardon AVR 310 Owner's Manual

Programming the Remote
Note that the numbers used to describe the but-
ton functions at the left for the purposes of
describing how a button operates are a different
set of numbers than those used in the rest of this
manual to describe the button functions for the
AVR 310.
Notes on Using the AVR 310 Remote With
Other Devices.
• Manufacturers may use different code sets for
the same product category. For that reason, it
is important that you check to see if the code
set you have entered operates as many con-
trols as possible. If it appears that only a few
functions operate, check to see if another code
set will work with more buttons.
• When a button is pressed on the AVR 310
remote, the red light under the Input
Selector e for the product being operated
should flash briefly. If the Device Control
Selector flashes for some but not all buttons
for a particular product, it does NOT indicate a
problem with the remote but rather that no
function is programmed for the button being
pushed.

Volume Punch-Through

The AVR 310's remote may be programmed to
operate the Volume Control 34
functions of either the TV or the AVR 310 in
38
conjunction with any of the devices controlled by
the remote. For example, since the AVR 310 will
likely be used as the sound system for TV view-
ing, you may wish to have the AVR 310's volume
activated, although the remote is set to run the
TV. Either the AVR 310 or TV volume control may
be associated with any of the remote's devices.
To program the remote for Volume Punch-
Through, follow these steps:
1. Press the Input Selector e for the unit you
wish to have associated with the volume con-
trol and the Mute button at the same
38
time until the red light illuminates under the
Input Selector e and note that the
Program/SPL Indicator c will flash amber.
2. Press the Volume Up button 34
that .the Program/SPL Indicator c will
stop flashing and stay amber.
3. Press either the AVR Selector f or the
Input Selector e, depending on which
system's volume control you wish to have
attached for the punch-through mode. The
38 PROGRAMMING THE REMOTE
Program/SPL Indicator c will blink green
three times and then go out to confirm the
data entry.
Example: To have the AVR's volume control
activated even though the remote is set to
control the TV, first press the Video/TV
Input Selector e and the Mute button
38 at the same time. Next, press the
Volume Up button
AVR Input Selector f.
NOTE: Should you wish to return the remote to
the original configuration after entering a Volume
Punch-Through, you will need to repeat the steps
shown above. However, press the same Input
Selector in Steps 1 and 3.

Channel Control Punch-Through

The AVR 310's remote may be programmed to
operate so that the channel control function for
either the TV, cable or satellite receiver used in
your system may be used in conjunction with one
of the other devices controlled by the remote. For
example, while using and controlling the VCR, you
may wish to change channels on a cable box or
satellite receiver without having to change the
device selected by the AVR 310 or the remote. To
program the remote for Channel Control Punch-
and Mute
Through, follow these steps:
1. Press the Input Selector button e for the
device you wish to have the channel control
associated with and the Mute button
the same time until the red light illuminates
under the Input Selector e and the
Program/SPL Indicator c flashes amber.
2. Press the Volume Down button
Program/SPL Indicator c will stop flash-
ing and stay amber.
3. Press and release the Input Selector button
e for the device that will be used to change
the channels. The Program/SPL Indicator
c will blink green three times and then go
out to confirm the data entry.
Example: To control the channels using your
and note
Cable Box or Satellite Receiver while the
remote is set to control the VCR, first press the
VID 1/VCR Input Selector button e and
the Mute button
release them and press the Volume Down
button 34 , followed by the VID 2/TV Input
Selector button e.
NOTE: To remove the Channel Control Punch-
Through and return the remote to its original con-
figuration, repeat the steps shown in the example
above. However, press the VID 1/VCR Input
Selector in Steps 1 and 3.
Transport Control Punch-Through
The AVR 310's remote may be programmed to
, followed by the operate so that the Transport Control Functions
34
x (Play, Stop, Fast Forward, Rewind, Pause and
Record) for a VCR, DVD or CD will operate in con-
junction with one of the other devices controlled
by the remote. For example, while using and con-
trolling the TV, you may wish to start or stop your
VCR or DVD without having to change the device
selected by the AVR 310 or the remote. To pro-
gram the remote for Transport Control Punch-
Through, follow these steps:
1. Press the Input Selector e for the device
you wish to have the channel control associat-
ed with and the Mute button
same time until the red light illuminates, under
the Input Selector e and the Program/
SPL Indicator c flashes amber.
2. Press the Play button x. The Program/SPL
Indicator c will stop flashing and stay
amber.
3. Press and release the Input Selector button
e for the device that will be used to change
the channels. The Program/SPL Indicator
c will blink green three times and then go
at

out to confirm the data entry.
Example: To control the transport of a DVD
player while the remote is set to control the TV,

Play button x, followed by the DVD Input
Selector button e.
NOTE: To remove the Channel Control Punch-
Through and return the remote to its original con-
figuration, repeat the steps shown in the example
above. However, press the VID 2/TV Input
Selector in Steps 1 and 3.
NOTE: Before programming the remote for
