You can program the remote controller's Macro buttons
to perform a sequence of actions.
Example:
To play a CD, you typically need to perform the follow-
ing actions:
1. Press the [Receiver] Remote Mode button to select
the Receiver remote controller mode.
2. Press the [On] button to turn on the AV receiver.
3. Press the [CD] Input Selector button to select the
CD input source.
4. Press the [CD] Remote Mode button to select the
CD remote controller mode.
5. Press the Play [ ] button to start playback on the
CD player.
You can program a Macro button so that all five actions
are performed with just one button press.

are taught new commands, the macro will no longer
work properly and will have to be made again.
Running Macros

The commands in the macro are transmitted in the
order in which they were programmed. Keep the
remote controller pointed at the AV receiver until

Macros can be run at anytime regardless of the
current remote controller mode.

Macro button [1], [2], or [3].
On the remote controller, press
the buttons whose actions you
