used with a compatibly programmed CD or DVD
changer, they will change to the previous disc in the
changer or carousel.
` Transport Controls: These buttons do not have
any direct functions for the AVR 235, but they may be
programmed for the forward/reverse play operation
of a wide variety of CD or DVD players, and audio
or video cassette recorders. When the remote is
used to control the AVR, the VID2/CBL/SAT device or
the VID3/TV device, these buttons are programmed to
operate the DVD player's transport controls. However,
you may use the Transport Control Punch-Through
12 REMOTE CONTROL FUNCTIONS
feature described on page 36 to program these but-
tons, to operate another device's transport controls

function for the AVR 235 but is most often used to
change to the next disc in a CD or DVD player when
the remote is programmed for that type of device.
When the remote is used to control the AVR, the
VID2/CBL/SAT device or the VID3/TV device, these
buttons are programmed to operate the DVD player's
transport controls. However, you may use the Transport
Control Punch-Through feature described on page 36
to program these buttons to operate another device's
transport controls when the AVR, VID2 or VID3 device
has been selected. (See page 35 for more information
on using the remote with products other than the
AVR 235.)
