Programming the Remote

Transport Control Punch-Through

The AVR's remote may be programmed to operate
so that the Transport Control Functions
(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 or the remote. To program the
remote for Transport Control Punch-Through, fol-
low these steps:
1. Press the Input Selector
for the device
you wish to have the channel control associated
with and the Mute button
at the same time
until the red light illuminates, under the Input
Selector
and the Program/SPL Indicator
flashes amber.
2. Press the Play button
. The Program/SPL
Indicator
will stop flashing and stay amber.
3. Press and release the AVR
or Input
Selector button
for the device that will be
used to change the channels. The Program/SPL
Indicator
will blink green three times and
then go out to confirm the data entry.
Example: To control the transport of a CD player
while the remote is set to control the TV, press the
VID 2/TV Input Selector button
Mute button
at the same time. Next, release
them and press the Play button
by the CD Input Selector button
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 same Input Selector
in Steps 1 and 3.
NOTE: Before programming the remote for
Volume, Channel or Transport Punch-Through,
make certain that any programming needed for
the specific TV, CD, DVD, Cable or Satellite
Receivers has been completed.
Reassigning Device-Control
Selectors
Although any of the Input Selectors
mally assigned to the category of product shown
on the remote, it is possible to reassign one of
these buttons to operate a second device of
another type. For example, if you have two VCRs
but no tape, you may program the TAPE
ton to operate a second VCR. Before you can start
you must find out the three-digit code number
for your second device (your second VCR) to
operate, as outlined on page 40. Then reassign
the TAPE
button with the following steps:
1. Press the Input Selector
reassign and the Mute button
time until the red light illuminates under the Input
Selector
and the Program/SPL Indicator
flashes amber.
2. Press the Input Selector
whose function you wish to program into the reas-
signed button.
3. Enter the three-digit code for the specific
model you wish the reassigned button to operate.
4. Press the same Input Selector
Step 1 once again to store the selection. The red
LED under the re-assigned Input Selector will flash
three times and then go out.

same time until the red light glows under the
TAPE
button. Press the VCR
lowed by the three-digit code for the specific
model you wish to control. Finally, press the TAPE
button again.
Important Note: Only those Input Selector
buttons
can be reassigned that replace
other buttons for devices of the same kind. So
the bottons for DVD, CD, TAPE and VCR (devices
with transport functions) can replace one another
as the Selectors for TV, CBL/SAT, and
VID 4.
To remove the Reassign function and return the
remote to its original configuration, repeat steps
1, 3 and 4 above (not 2), however, press the
same Input Selector button
4 (i.e. re-program the button with its
original code).

Resetting the Remote Memory

As you add components to your home-theater
is nor-
system, occasionally you may wish to totally repro-
gram the remote control without the confusion of
any commands, macros or "Punch-Through"
programming that you may have done. To do this,
it is possible to reset the remote to the original
but-
factory defaults and command codes by following
these steps. Note, however, that once the remote
is reset, all commands or codes that you have
entered will be erased and will need to be re-
entered:
1. Press any of the Input Selector buttons
