Finding a Component’s Set-up Code Number If you used the Auto-Search or Learning Methods to set up a component, you may not know the code number you programmed. Here is a way for you to identify what that code number is, so youcan make a note in the back of this Manual for future reference.
Pre-Programmed Code Tables The WR7 Pre-Programmed code library is classified by category (Audio, CD, VCR/DVR, etc.). Within each category, the code numbers are listed in rows by brand (Sony, Panasonic, B & K, etc.). Some brands have more than one three-digit code.
Questions If the batteries run out, will I lose my settings? No. The WR7 stores all of your settings in nonvolatile FLASH memory. You could remove the batteries for months, replace them at your convenience, and the WR7 would still remember your settings.
